Congratulations, Nintendo, you forced us to find a way to distribute illegal source code. I hope it was worth it.
I've long since been boycotting Nintendo and plan to continue doing so for the foreseeable future. Tux Kart is better than Mario Kart anyway.
Legal source code
Its not illegal, Nintendo just doesnt like it.
Not to "um, actually", but I'm gonna "um actually" - technically, using git to host code in a decentralized fashion has been a standard capability of git since it's inception. So it's not really a new idea, just a new iteration
All I hear is “I don’t understand git remotes and what radicle does”
Feel free to enlighten me
https://radicle.xyz
So it has a gossip protocol to spread the repo, and a common format for artifacts (issues, PRs, etc) to act more like GitHub.
I don’t know too much more because I just started looking into it a month or two ago and haven’t done a deep dive. But it’s a layer on top of git to spread repositories peer to peer instead of manually having people add remotes.
Nice, thanks for the info!
Thanks for politely asking for more info. I find myself a bit brash sometimes as I live on crypto twitter as my day job. So sorry if the initial message was harsh; I deal with a lot of shit posters.
Nice
Holy shit this looks awesome. Thanks. Lol
