She has an okay selection but not as robust as others.

You self host gitlab-ce to avoid dmca’s from mega corps.

I self host gitlab-ce so that no one can see all of my shitty commits.

We are not the same.

Serious question for the seriously uninformed: what's the alternative?

They never learn not to use Git

I'd assume some useless forks that weren't renamed or active. Or redundant secondary mirrors.

The active Switch 1 repos are all self hosted now:

Ryujinx continuations:

https://git.ryujinx.app/projects/Kenji-NX

https://git.ryujinx.app/Ryubing

Yuzu continuations:

https://git.eden-emu.dev/eden-emu/eden

Edit: i think suyu fork is maybe dead.

I'm surprised Nintendo isn't going after all the Switch 2 slopulators or static recompiles yet. I don't think they violate DMCA because they work differently, not decrypting anything or using keys, but it's Microsoft in the USA.

FYI, Eden is a fork of yuzu that adds quite a lot of features and is fully compatible with yuzu saves/mods/configs.

My favorite new feature is loading updates and DLC from a folder instead of having to install them.

It also uses 220 MB of memory per tab. A laggy manga reader site with tons of pictures uses 80 MB. How do they even do this? My line isn't that fast!

The only reason like projects like that have a following and is doscovered is because they are on GitHub

I wasn't familiar with this, and apparently neither was duckduckgo. Is this what you were referring to? https://reticulum.network/manual/git.html

It looks interesting, thanks for putting me on to it!

And/or

Open season to "steal" their shit.

And even if they were, a new repository for it would pop up in a month tops.

The PR stunt is aimed at the news cycle that's been gobbling up engagement-baited comments from absolutely everyone by showing off OOT Remake on PC (via emulators or the recomp). Seriously, it's catnip for clickbait. You get all of the following Very Engaged:

• Nintendo fanboys (this is why nintendo is justified to do takedowns!)

• PC Master Race / Sony fanboys (lol nintendo got owned!)

• Anti-AI guys (all the current OOT stuff is vibe coded and that's terrible)

• Pro-AI guys (all the current OOT stuff is vibe coded and that's awesome)

All for the headline that implies you can play the shiniest new nostalgia bait Nintendo game on PC as easily and well as on the shiny new Nintendo console, which isn't even the case the way it was the last time a Zelda emulation fiasco overtook the games news sphere.

If they were stored on an SD card, wouldn't it be easier to get the files for emulation?

Any tool that can dump cartridges from a Switch or 3DS can also dump installed files. Cartridges are the exact same files under the exact same encryption as installed eShop games are. Anyone who actually wanted to emulate those systems while still being a good customer and paying for the games could very easily do so.

Switch 2's piracy/backup "tool chain" is very limited and immature, and as of earlier this week is now only viable on a limited set of outdated firmwares and requires a lot of external shenanigans to get the initial entry point. It's a lot less accessible, even though the process works for cartridges or installed files.

That said, every article like this that says "you must dump or provide your own ROM" is just saying "we aren't going to provide links to the pirate site hosting the ROM". The dumping process removes DRM from the files, so anything you could do with your dump can also be done with a copied version of someone else's dump.

Just pirate the games. You already paid for them, so morally it should be fine. And legally, downloading without uploading is safe everywhere on the planet.

You put layers Like an onion

So you put cloudflare or tailscale or netbird or whatever infront of your thing. So you need at least two zero days for different products to be immediately fucked

Don't expose your stuff publicly and it's pretty much a non-issue. There's no reason your private git server needs to be accessible from the web. If you need to access it when you're away from home, you can just connect back to your network with a VPN or SSH tunnel and then access your services like normal.

I used to self host externally but keeping up with all the security just became exhausting after awhile. I pulled it all back behind a VPN, been so much nicer after. my containers still patch nightly, which up until now hasn't been an issue. Then i patch and reboot the actual servers quarterly. not so bad. So i would suggest if you are self hosting to not expose to the internet at all.

I don’t understand. Is it a problem that people are buying the game through the proper channels?
