 Nebula | yuzu gets dmca'd -> new emulator based on yuzu pops up -> get's dmcad | 14:32:23 |
 @delroth:delroth.net | * every emulator for any console more recent than the Nintendo GameCube is "removing DRM" for some definition of "removing DRM", the problem is there's no precedent for how broad "removing DRM" should be and the law is written in the broadest of way with the expectation that the Librarian of Congress sets reasonable exceptions | 15:58:01 |
| @delroth:delroth.net | so no, drm removal is not "blatantly illegal", in fact https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2021/10/28/2021-23311/exemption-to-prohibition-on-circumvention-of-copyright-protection-systems-for-access-control lists a bunch of cases where it's specifically allowed, these cases don't include emulation, probably because nobody petitioned the Library of Congress to try and make that call | 15:59:30 |
| @delroth:delroth.net | (happy to take that discussion somewhere else, but in that case stop spewing bad uninformed legal opinions :) ) | 16:00:09 |

 nyanbinary | I wonder if we can build yuzu-ea ourselves in nixpkgs (yuzu mainline is already built with hydra) | 16:03:45 |
| @delroth:delroth.net | is there anything that leads you to think it's not already built by hydra? | 16:05:20 |
 K900 | It should be built already | 16:06:38 |
| K900 | Unless it failed for some weird reason | 16:06:47 |

is there anything that leads you to think it's not already built by hydra? https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/nixos-unstable/pkgs/applications/emulators/yuzu/early-access/default.nix#L36 | 16:16:19 |
| nyanbinary | dont we just fetch the zip from pineapple? | 16:16:25 |
| @delroth:delroth.net | why does it matter where the sources are fetched from? | 16:17:09 |
| K900 | In reply to @niko:conduit.rs
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/nixos-unstable/pkgs/applications/emulators/yuzu/early-access/default.nix#L36 It's fetching the sources, then rehydrating them in a very convoluted way | 16:18:44 |
| K900 | Then building from spruce | 16:18:48 |
| K900 | * Then building from source | 16:18:53 |
| K900 | But it in fact built from source | 16:18:59 |
| nyanbinary | In reply to @k900:0upti.me
Then building from source oo oki im dumb so it contains those optional features that the mainline build has too right? | 16:19:11 |
| K900 | What optional features? | 16:19:23 |

| K900 | Yes | 16:19:59 |
| nyanbinary | oki cool :3 | 16:20:04 |
| K900 | Those features are also enabled in upstream builds though | 16:20:09 |
| nyanbinary | o oki | 16:21:35 |
