Too bad they removed the first game from GOG... So I suppose we won't see a DRM-free release out of Steam...

Wake me up when the true stretch goal "open source" has been reached.
Oh and I hope the DRM-free releases won't be Windows only of course... look what others did...

Waiting for the news like "oh nevermind, we did our best, but it doesn't work anymore, thanks anyway!"...

Yuzu agrees to pay Nintendo $2.4 million and will entirely shut down (Citra for 3DS too)

WTF. I'm devastated. I can't believe this shit...
And we've just lose Citra too, as if it was not enough.

Also, when these devs will stop to get their code on Github?! Self-hosting in the EU! I'm so mad.

Quoting: NathanaelKStottlemyerJust earlier, I cloned the repo. If anyone wants the code, I can put it on codeburg.
I did too some days ago, I don't know if your one have more commits to it though.

Seriously that's enough. I'm thinking about a script or software to clone repos automatically and regularly to save the projects that I like the most. Do you guys already doing this? If you know a good tip let me/us know, thanks!

And for actual projects and future ones, does some sort of a guide exist to prevent that sort of thing? I mean to have the better protection from the start, and if not, I really think that some people should look into it. Like the guides we can find about privacy etc. We need this.

The thing is, DisplayPort is not really better... all of these are stuffed with proprietary things, because codecs, because HDCP... Listening to Jean-Baptiste Kempf (the guy of VLC) is really interesting in that regard.

My thoughts are going to the yuzu team (and all emulators devs), I hope they'll win.
Needless to say, time to clone the repository.

Apple M1 gets OpenGL 4.6 and OpenGL ES 3.2 support on Linux

Quoting: Highball
Quoting: nlborlclIf only Apple wasn't so broke they could support OpenGL 4.6.

According to the Steam for Mac discussion board on Steam, Apple apparently can't afford to implement Vulkan either.

So bad... I don't know, maybe they could open a Kickstarter campaign to finance it?! Yeah I Know, it's stupid, they know their fans wouldn't donate enough...
