@emma:rory.gayEmma [it/its] https://github.com/cantona/afulnx-1/tree/master/afulnx64 surely this isnt just open source right? 17:58:46

@k900:0upti.meK900It's H518:01:29
@k900:0upti.meK900Their versioning is funny 18:01:36
@emma:rory.gayEmma [it/its]sure but h5 was released 8 days later...?18:01:48
@k900:0upti.meK900The firmware itself shows the build date, not the release date 18:02:35
@k900:0upti.meK900 There's usually at least some acceptance testing before a firmware being built and being shipped to customers. 18:02:56
@k900:0upti.meK900
In reply to @emma:rory.gay
NTFS isnt even part of the EFI standard, which would mean MSI is shipping their own NTFS implementation for this
It's very likely coming from the vendor BSP, or from AMI
18:04:00
@k900:0upti.meK900Because it's definitely not just MSI18:04:10
@tuxiqae:matrix.orgtuxiqaeAh, I see, cool 18:04:29
@emma:rory.gayEmma [it/its]im going to guess that the beta versions arent worthwhile? theres a vulnfix but no release bios with it et18:09:06
@k900:0upti.meK900They're probably fine 18:10:00
@k900:0upti.meK900Anything they ship to customers will usually not be horribly broken, at least 18:10:15
@tanja:catgirl.cloudTanja (she/her) changed their display name from Tanja (she/her) [DECT 6929] to Tanja (she/her).20:59:26

@xiaoxiangmoe:matrix.org🐰 xiaoxiangmoeIs there any open source gaming packed in nixpkgs?07:02:59
@k900:0upti.meK900 You mean open source games? 07:07:58
@k900:0upti.meK900We have like supertuxkart and stuff07:08:04
@xiaoxiangmoe:matrix.org🐰 xiaoxiangmoe

If I want to pack https://github.com/TheAssemblyArmada/Vanilla-Conquer to nixpkgs

If user want to run it.
It depends on source code from Vanilla-Conquer, which is modified with Electronic Arts's open source code with GPLv3
And it depends on freeware's assets which can free downloaded from EA, but this is not open source.

  • https://www.moddb.com/games/cc-red-alert/downloads/command-conquer-red-alert-demo
  • http://ra.afraid.org/html/ra/download.html
  • https://web.archive.org/web/20080901183216/http://www.ea.com/redalert/news-detail.jsp?id=62

What lisence should I set in meta.license?
Will https://cache.nixos.org/ and https://app.cachix.org/cache/nix-community provide cache for this?

07:19:57
@k900:0upti.meK900The actual license for the source code is custom07:21:54
@k900:0upti.meK900 And arguably unfree due to

If you convey this program (or any modifications of it) and assume contractual liability for the program to recipients of it, you agree to indemnify Electronic Arts for any liability that those contractual assumptions impose on Electronic Arts.
07:22:34
@k900:0upti.meK900But even if it is considered free, if the actual package depends on unfree assets, Hydra will not build it07:24:25
@xiaoxiangmoe:matrix.org🐰 xiaoxiangmoeWill cache/nix-community build it?07:25:45
@k900:0upti.meK900No 07:26:27
@xiaoxiangmoe:matrix.org🐰 xiaoxiangmoeI can't find a relevant statement for cache/nix-community07:26:33
@k900:0upti.meK900 The nix-community cache is just there for ofborg, mostly 07:26:55
@k900:0upti.meK900It's not really designed to be consumed by end users 07:27:06
