@Raspberryfloof hee, oh gosh
grabbing random bits of ram in compilation seems hellua-insecure
then again, the only other way i could think of this going down is maybe a developer used the scratch buffer as a scratchpad, and saved it as a file?
@Raspberryfloof ahahahahah, what the heck??
i'm definitely leaning more towards your RAM theory now though
i mean, if i knew my compiler did that, i would sandbox it so hard! i wonder how much sensitive information has been inadvertently distributed like this?
@thingywott Possibly!
And it wouldn't be the first time I've seen random data used for ROM padding; there's always the infamous case of DynaMike for GBC...
