When I first saw the Rabbit R1, it was much more attractive Humanist AI Pin. The R1 had a real screen, not a dull projector, and it had a twee spinning wheel, each wrapped in a bright, fiery orange-red shell.

They are aimed at emulators.
Nintendo has issued a Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) notice to over 8,000 GitHub repositories hosting code from the Yuzu Switch emulator. You may remember what the game maker Yuzu said allows “Piracy on a grand scale.” Redacted entities representing Nintendo claim that Yuzu’s source code “illegally circumvents Nintendo’s technological safeguards and runs illegal copies of Switch games.” All this is happening as gaming emulators are enjoying a resurgence. Last month Apple relaxes its limitations In retro game players on the App Store. However, the more serious reasons to emulate (archiving game history that might otherwise be lost; playing games that are no longer in circulation) disappear when you do it for free.
