Denuvo rhymes with "fuck you, no."

I'd argue that they're more likely to morph into a patent troll if they ever do get anywhere close to their death throes.

We might even be witnessing the Genesis of that transformation now.

They have such a deep patent portfolio that they could really fuck with the whole industry.

Nintendo hates its fans. They should reap the negative PR. Problem is, way too many corporate simps.

The speedrunning community must a lil shook with the emulation strikes, lately.

Mind if I ask why you're sticking with Debian for gaming? Debian's awesome for servers because you want the stability; but for gaming, you generally want nice fresh packages, updated drivers, etc etc. I'd use Bazzite or Nobara – the former if you're comfortable with immutable/atomic paradigm, the latter if not.

I think the larger content creators will push back against this, precisely due to the timestamp issue.

No but content owners could directly DMCA stuff that's hosted on usenet, they just don't.

They absolutely do, which is why the vast, vast majority of content is obfuscated, necessitating the use of indexers.

Android has root, you just gotta put in a little bit of work, and give up your Google App goodies like RCS chat and Pay. (you can get them working too, but Google's getting better at detection/blacklisting spoofed device fingerprints making it a cat and mouse pain)

I found it to be less of a headache to just embrace transcoding. Buy a refrub SFF PC with an 8th gen or better Intel CPU, and enable QuickSync in Jellyfin.

No kidding? Didn't think it was possible anymore. I have that exact model, gotta look into it – the homescreen ads drive me insane (and wifey won't let me just buy a Shield).

Most YouTubers aren't actually tech literate?! Say it ain't so! /s

That's not entirely true. If you have a really old firestick on a really old firmware in a drawer somewhere, there was a way to flash a custom Android build on them way back. That's long been patched out, though.
