Is every shop just behind a paywall now?
While the torrent client included in the owntinfoil zip is open source, the two .exe's included are not, and he's actually violating the open source license for https://github.com/picotorrent/picotorrent

Anyone have any experience with writing their own torrent client?
You can look the code of PicoTorrent, is a clean and small client (based on libtorrent too) : https://github.com/picotorrent/picotorrent

GGn removing μTorrent from the client whitelist in 6 months
I wish some of the other BT clients took off besides the big 3 (Qbt, Deluge, Transmission and I guess rtorrent+rutorrent as well). There are some other simple BT clients out there that mimic early uTorrent GUI, one of the most notable was Hadouken, which was headless. It had a web UI that's reminiscent of uTorrent 2.0.4. https://github.com/hadouken/hadouken Sadly the project seems dead, as the last official release was in 2015. There's another minimal torrent client named Picotorrent available for Windows https://github.com/picotorrent/picotorrent, but I am not sure how well this works on heavy libraries, and I doubt many private trackers allow it because it's so niche. Another client I used to use back in the day was Halite, but that also died in 2015.

BitTorrent v2 (2020)
Not really true - v0.20 of PicoTorrent [1] was released the same day as libtorrent released support for v2 torrents. I think this predates BiglyBT 2.5 with v2 [2] support with about two weeks.

Nintendo 64 Java
There's been plenty but they've fallen aside for various reasons.
- GCJ (iirc only pre 1.5-1.6 java support so never with generic versions, not sure if they ever implented JNI but relied on their own so libraries with native bindings had to be manually ported iirc)
- Excelsior JET was a strong option for a long time on desktops up until 2018, main selling point was resistance to decompilation but not sure if they ran afoul of Oracle licensing or couldn't keep up with the accelerated pace of JDK releases in later years.
(The below were options to various degrees for iOS developers)
- Avian VM ( https://readytalk.github.io/avian/ ), opensource and seems to be up but never really saw an uptake or proper debug tooling iirc, seems inactive by now.
- Robo VM was another strong option with strong support for IDE debuggers,etc since it was used by gamedevs and the initial libgdx author was involved in it. Sadly they were sold out to Xamarin shortly before MS bought out Xamarin and then promptly shut down since MS only had interest in Xamarin for their C# iOS/Android toolkits.
- RoboVM forks, luckily RoboVM core was liberally licensed so forks were possible for those working on mobile games with iOS ports even if the tooling wasn't as slick as the official RoboVM project (No idea if any of the open source variants have caught up, it was a bit chaotic initially with many forks).
- Intel had(have?) some AOT compiler for Java that was an option for libgdx developers for a while but RoboVM being more "native" had more eyes and no idea if Intel really had a business case for it's Java things ? (
(Funnily enough, I was actually doing an AOT one during late uni times to write a thesis on game GC's (and hoping to maybe commercialize), then Oracle bought out Sun and I wrote a JS AOT prototype instead. Hearing of Oracle vs Goog it felt sane but Oracle did showcase RoboVM later on so maybe it was silly)
