Emulation itself is legal, which is why the complaint is about circumvention of protections under the DMCA.
Nintendo alleges that Yuzu does that, and while it needs the help of prod.keys for it, yuzu does give instruction on how to obtain that. Nintendo argues that this shows how Yuzu is there (primarily) to break their protections.
Now, Yuzu has some defenses.
Most realistic outcome (as I expect):
Yuzu is taken down, the open source project continues, but at a much slower rate. The Case is dropped.
The outcome that I’d love to see (but seems way less realistic):
Yuzu gets a significant bump in donations from people angry about this, decide to go to trial and wins.
Result: Yuzu gets more money, Nintendo has cemented more protections for Emulation.
goddamn it, I really hope that Nintendo will get laughed out of court, but it seems to me (IANAL) that they may have a case. Although Yuzu will have some defenses as well.
Ars Technica has a writeup about this, that seems decent.
They expect that this won’t go to trial, because yuzu won’t be able to pay for it.
Maybe the community should think about changing that.
I2P, the invisible internet protocol allows for anonymous torrenting (getting movies, games, etc. without paying). It’s fairly old and robust, but lacks actual people using it. Now a program that many people already use has included the option to use this.
This alone may increase the usage of this system, and make it more useful.
it can fuck up microsoft office formatted documents
everything can.
That is because Microsoft doesn’t follow the 1000 page docx standards they wrote themselves.
And I will defend the decent UI against modern words ribbon-trash to my death.
libreoffice ui can certainly be improved a lot, but microsoft office is definitely worse.
