archive.org is cool and all, but a centralized service will never be a reliable way to truly archive something.
this repo still lives and we still have Suyu that looks promising, So, no worries atm https://github.com/pineappleEA/pineapple-src/releases/tag/EA-4176
At least not one that's hosted in a country where the IP mafia has any power, which is unfortunately most countries excluding places like Russia or China where you probably wouldn't want to host it anyhow due to a variety of other, uh… issues
This isn't hard. Torrent with a seed box somewhere outside of copyright enforcement is likely the best option as a "backup" source.
🤔torrent based git server, is this a thing?
I wonder if IPFS would help in this case...

Your license thingy broke since that thread where you explained your script. It doesn't spoiler anymore.
What does it look like for you? I'm on the web client

I think they're doing a damn fine job archiving something, and in reliable ways too
Til it gets taken down and dismantled. Yes.
Nothing good is allowed to exist but in shadows. Shadow archives are essential.
Since they're back at it again I have to jump onto my alt and re-share the fact that I totally backed up Yuzu's source code, their progress reports, their Github issues pages + pull requests, and all the latest available binaries right before it got taken off of Github. No illicit materials in my archive (ROMS/Firmwares/Keys). Freely available as a torrent.

Otherwise I wish the best of luck to the nascent Suyu project.
Thanks. Just added this to my torrent server and will seed until the server dies
Shit I might add it to my collection of stuff I tagged "Forever :)"
Right now only the rarbg_db torrent is on it with a ratio of 46x (17gb upload).
Nintendo brass = scumbags. Trash corpo who hates its customers except for milking their money.
It is morally good to pirate all Nintendo products, crack all their hardware, and disparage all their advertising.
Even if there's nothing by them you want to play, pirate some anyway. Seed generously.
Agreed.
Now this is the way
ugh FUCK OFF Nintendo
How does Internet Archive has so many epub books if they are restricted by DMCA? Honest question
Nobody sent a request to remove them
They turn a blind eye as long as no one files DMCA notice. They do limit downloads of some popular pirated materials behind login though.
if you believe this copyright claim was made in error
It definitely was, since Yuzu doesn't break copyright....
Did they transfer ownership of the code to Nintendo? If so, it might be a violation of Nintendo's copyright on Yuzu itself.
To everyone who downvoted this: You are of low relative quality. Friggen jerks! I dress better than you! GET A LIFE! 😡😡😡😡😡
In case this is a real question: AFAIK* that is not possible for them to do. The project was open source and it accepted code contributions from everyone using a FOSS license. This means:
- Everyone who has seen the code explicitly has rights to redistribute it, and this right cannot be revoked
- The core team does not own the entirety of the code - to transfer ownership to Nintendo they would have to get approval from every single contributor that ever made a pull request that got merged. This is impractical to say the least
So no, there is no and there cannot be legal basis for Nintendo to claim copyright on Yuzu. They might have other claims, but I won't weigh in on how good they might be because I'm way out of my depth already.
* I'm actually making a bunch of assumptions about Yuzu's licence and number of contributors that I haven't bothered to check, so take this with a grain of salt. I'm still pretty confident about point 1 though, I'd be really surprised if this was a wrong assumption, and it alone is enough.
"In case this is a real question?"
Anyway, I just read through the settlement and I didn't see any explicit transfer of ownership of he code in there. I'm not a lawyer though, there are some things in there I may not understand the implications of.
Could have been just a hypothetical or rhetorical question from my POV
FWIW I am not one of the jerks who downvoted you, I think your comment contributes to discussion even if I'm the end it turns out to be wrong. I think people just see the downvote button as a "disagree" or "you're wrong" button, don't let it get to you.
Don't worry about it, the angry edit was meant to be humorous- in general I agree that it's a mistake to let downvotes upset you.
(And because I'm the admin of my own instance, the votes are made visible through the UI. So if I wanted to be a vindictive weirdo about it, I could... 😉)
I bet Nintendo wouldn't think twice to request books be burned if the yuzu source code is printed on them.
Nintendo would bomb aid workers if they thought they were carrying yuzu source code
N I N T E N D O C A N E A T S H I T ! !
Never give Nintendo money.
Just copy all the source code to one giant book and distribute it through Tor.
How dare they want their copyrighted material not stolen
there is nothing in Yuzu that Nintendo has copyright to. Emulators are also precedentially legal.
so yes, how dare they want "their" copyrighted material not "stolen"....
