Aif you make money, they can pin stuff on you
Knever went to court, this entire argument is untested since it settled
KBleem proved you can charge for an emulator and it's legal, that's actually tested
Alike the reason bowser went to jail was because he made 30k or something
Kbut helping people pirate and writing software to circumvent DMCA have merit
Aor was it 130k?
Abecause they can then say, you made money of us losing money
Aand youre done
Kthat's exactly what sony tried to do with bleem tho, and lost
Ayeah but i think the case here is a bit stronger. In any case, yuzu would have 0 trouble if:
A- they didnt include decryption in yuzu itself and made you run a separate tool with 0 instructions on the main page of how
A- they banned games for the first week of release with a blocklist (where it might be trivial to bypass)
A- they didnt offer a patreon with early access builds that allowed those games to be played prior or close to release
Athats it
KI think #1 there is the future of emulation at this point
Tnintendo could have made more money if they ported their games to PC than suing yuzu
want to put that out there
want to put that out there
Kto avoid this whole thing
Klet another piece of software decrypt and focus on running
Arunning is like 97% of the work
Afrom what the lawsuit says, decoding is the trivial part
Alike i could code it in 2 days trivial
Aits 3 consecutive AES128 decriptions
Ayuzu using encrypted copies is nice because you dont have to worry about viruses sure
Abut its not worth going bankrupt over
Alike yuzu already supports loading unencrypted uncompressed games
Tnintendo is such a poor small company :( how could they recoup the loss!? oh wait they have an individual paying generational debt to them for as long as he lives and anyone who may be haunted by that debt in his potential bloodline
Ti have no sympathy for the devil
NI hate IP law in general, but that's a whole different can of worms to open 
Ai took a patents course
Ai like it, but yeah
Ti kind of find it funny that the legal document includes a screenshot of some user playing TOTK before it released in the states on Yuzu on the Steam Deck and it's a youtube video 
AIt may look amateurish but legally speaking it looks very bad for yuzu
Ti think ive been radicalized by some of the news that has happened today between the emulation and nvidia

Ain any case, theres a reason the devs settled within a week
GHonestly the main reason Nintendo was able to go after yuzu was because of the early access Patreon. It's less about monetising emulators (Ryujinx does this in a safe manner), and more about how they went about it. They profited over Tears of the Kingdom before the game was even released by charging for an early access build that was able to play TotK. That's a very serious issue
GThe saddest part of all this to me is how Citra ended up as collateral damage, since it's basically the only functional 3DS emulator
OPeople should be allowed to make a living off their work, and IP law can be an important tool for that. The problem is when it’s abused
NThe problem is that IP Law as it currently exists does not benefit smaller creators. It only benefits large entities that have the power to hire enough attorneys to make the smaller creator go away.
OAgreed
Ksorry, dont know if this is the right place, but does anyone know of a good copy paste/password manager for game mode? i have genshin downloaded, but multiple accounts, and virtual keyboard isnt a fan of it. i really dont wanna resort to bringing a physical keyboard everywhere
NI haven't tried Bitwarden in Game Mode, but I think most modern password managers would probably open in Game Mode? Or at least the browser version of them.
Khmm. ill try it out. pain in the totall ass right now, my passwords are too complex, let alone i cant even get virtual keyboard to type properly.
Nyeah, I can see that being a pain.
Kill try bitwarden or something once i get home
MCitra hurt. Especially with the eshop and online services now effectively dead.
Aelectron versions require --no-sandbox if not the appimage to work
Afyi
Abitwarden is electron
