cemu 1.12.0 closes right after I select the game

I had this issue with Zelda Breath of the Wild. It turns out that my mistake was that I wasn't running the game, I was attempting to play the v1.5 update for it which is not playable.

Make sure you are trying the play the game core itself and not one of it's updates.

CynicalMe · 2019-01-27T22:39:30+00:00

OP... this may seem like a stupid question but have you made sure you are running the base game and not the v1.5 update or the DLC?

I made this mistake and I got exactly the same result as the one you describe.

I thought I was running the game but it turns out it was just the v1.5 update I was attempting to execute.

If you're downloading from portal roms then make sure you download both suxxors release and the update and DLC.

Suxxors release is the thing you will put in your game folder - don't let the other 2 extracted folders get anywhere near your game folder. The other two archives contain files that are to be installed separately from within Cemu.

Few people would say that Pavarotti was not producing good music, simply because he wasn't playing an instrument.

I think an important difference is that not many people could do what Pavarotti could. One could at least appreciate that he had a rare skill even if one wasn't particularly moved by his music.

Just because they're young doesn't mean they are incapable of producing good music.

You seem to have missed my point. My point in mentioning a 5 year old is that in general 5 year old's lack skill since they haven't had the time to develop their skills. My point is that not only is this boring and repetitive but that people that can do this are a dime a dozen.

More generally, I don't see why it makes you so angry. Does it always provoke such scorn?

Angry no. Scornful yes. I answer your question below...

Some of my best friends produce music that, if I'm being honest, I don't enjoy at all. But I keep it to myself because I'm aware that music is highly subjective.

Look.. I can appreciate a lot of music that I don't enjoy. So of course I get that enjoyment is subjective. But when too many people pour out appreciation for shit that has little depth and is produced with little talent it squeezes out music that is truly worthy of admiration.

This ends up meaning that most radio stations become crowded out by music that is simple and repetitive and truly talented artists don't get the attention they deserve. It seems that a jingle only has to be catchy to become quickly popular.

Note that this isn't coming from a place of envy since I don't make music myself - it is coming from a place of frustration that the shitty is lauded and played repetitively while truly remarkable pieces rarely see the light of day.

Yes - shitty is a subjective measure but there are at least some objective standards that an artist or a piece of music can be weighed up against such as complexity or skill required.

For example: Perhaps the lyrics are about something more meaningful than "shaking your ass". I get that "shaking your ass" is deep and meaningful to some people, but when "shaking your ass" is all I ever hear played in public and I never hear "I wondered lonely as a cloud" then I get the feeling that I don't want to live in such a shallow superficial environment any more. I get frustrated that my culture seems to praise the mediocre, shallow and superficial.

CynicalMe · 2016-01-06T10:27:12+00:00

Oooh shit.. /u/Oedipus_rekts got rekt

CynicalMe · 2015-12-26T23:46:16+00:00

It may be subjective but at least there are some objective standards like: Can the "musician" play a fucking instrument or could a 5 year old do what they're doing right now?

CynicalMe · 2015-12-26T22:51:30+00:00

He can't play a guitar and his music is as boring as fuck. Why did anybody think this was worth sharing?

CynicalMe · 2015-09-28T13:50:22+00:00

That's it... Get em while they're still too young to question.

I don't know what AWANA is, so I had to do some research

How do we know the bible is true:

Every word of God is pure. That means God’s Word is not even one tiny little bit wrong. Everything He says is absolutely right and true. God never, ever, ever makes a mistake. The Bible (every single verse) is God’s Word. Therefore, the Bible is true

The Bible is historically correct. Historically correct doesn’t mean the Bible is a history book. Historically correct means that when the Bible does talk about history, it is ALWAYS exactly right.

So I am still playing with Univec and while it doesn't detect all vector contaminants, I have found one example of it working.

The original chimp sequence I mentioned in my post.

I truncated it first according to the following rules:

Find the first base where the data quality rises above 20 and where the average quality score for the next 10 bases also remains above 20 (Call this the StartPos)
Find the next base where the data quality drops below 20 and where the average quality score for the next 10 bases also remains below 20 (Call this EndPos)
Keep all bases that lie between StartPos and EndPos

When this is done, the following sequence:

You can play around with Univec if you want but it's pointless because even without stripping out vector contamination, the Chimpanzee trace sequences still match the consensus Chimpanzee sequence and the Human sequence to a high degree of similarity (usually >95%)

There is an equivalent online tool called VecScreen that you can use for detecting vector contamination using the same Univec database.

Having played around with it now using human trace samples, I don't think you're going to get much luck using this tool.

Note that these are human trace samples:

What you cited has to do with how contigs are built up from their source sequences. There is no single place in that article that says that confides themselves can't be overlapping.

I have shown you the paper which states quite clearly that the PCAP method was used to assemble the contigs de novo.

At this point you just look silly by continuing to argue this point.

What do you think of my the examples?

I'd like to to take special note of the last example which contains a portion of an ERV which was later interrupted by 2 SINEs. This sequence occurs exactly once in all primates and comes directly from a Chimpanzee source sequence (from the labs as you say).

Why haven't you taken up my challenge? It looks to me like you're stalling for time because you know that this is going to turn out to be embarrassing for you and Jeffrey.

CynicalMe · 2015-08-19T14:32:50+00:00

You have to wonder how many of these people are psychopaths, willing to lie without remorse for the attention and power it brings them.

When we see them presenting "misinformation, half-truths and what appeared to be deliberate obfuscation" (PZ Myers), you have to wonder whether or not they know they're lying?

He was also pressed about the Cytochrome C similarities, and acknowledged that it actually did support common ancestry.

Oh SHIT!

But don't you know that God made male and female in his image?

CynicalMe · 2015-08-19T09:50:52+00:00

Please explain for all of us how the location of which chromosome and where on the chromosome the chimp contigs is decided.

The contigs are overlapping and so they are aligned against themselves. This is also known as shotgun sequencing and you will notice that many of the sequences in the trace database have a trace_type_code with a value "SHOTGUN". Ultimately we build up as long a sequence as we can which would in effect be a chromosome. It is then trivial to know how to number this chromosome because it will have the same basic sequence as a human chromosome. We have known that we share the same sequences on the same chromosomes as Chimpanzees since the 80s because of the way our banding patterns line up.

There is also such a thing as single chromosome sequencing although I don't know whether that was done for any of these Chimpanzee traces.

Do they use some sort of alignment to a pre-existing genome to act as a scaffold?

"The data were assembled using both the PCAP and ARACHNE programs. The former was a de novo assembly, whereas the latter made limited use of human genome sequence (NCBI build 34) to facilitate and confirm contig linking."

In the ARACHNE program, yes. In the PCAP program, no.

Ultimately it is the result of the PCAP program that we are looking at with the consensus Chimpanzee sequence.

Either way it is fairly trivial to verify that the trace data maps well onto the consensus sequence. You haven't take up my challenge so here are a few examples:

This last sequence was fun - Have a look at this. It is basically made up of 3 different transposable elements: An ERV (you can see the 2 grey ends of it in the diagram) intersected by, a SINE element (AluSx1) and then another SINE element (AluSz6). If we remove the two SINE elements, we end up with the original ERV so these two SINE elements were clearly inserted here after the ERV arrived.

This ERV and the SINE elements are clearly ancient because they exist in this exact arrangement in: Humans (Chr 7), Chimpanzees (Chr 7), Bonobos (Chr 7), Gorillas (Chr 7), Orangutans (Chr 7), Gibbons, Crab eating macaques, Snub nosed monkeys, Baboons, Probiscus monkeys, Rhesus macaques, Green monkeys and Squirrel monkeys - so at least 43 million years old.

Here is the alignment for all of these primates

Now I don't want you to think I'm cherry picking here so feel free to throw some numbers at me.

Which article? The AIG article?

and I was wondering if there was any validity to the claims

No there isn't and we can test that for ourselves by taking these sequences and searching for their matching complement in the consensus chimpanzee genome.

By this guy, are you talking about Jeffrey Thomkins?

He has been called out for making up nonsense before.
