So like I mentioned I joined Antithesis a little while back. When I did, I pitched them on a crazy idea. Antithesis... Hypothesis... Hegel!

Today: Rust. Tomorrow: The world! (Muahaha)

I just spent 5 minutes trying to figure out why my NES emulator was lagging. I thought it might be an OpenGL issue, something to do with the sound core, and I tried a different NES emulator core entirely!
