Isn't there still a hill to climb even if they get subscriber details in proving the person who is the subscriber for that line had anything to do with any "infringement" that may of occurred. I thought speculative invoicing of subscribers had gone out of fashion as a piracy deterrent?

You mean Vanilla Conquer which is a proper cross platform source port?

OpenRA is a game engine and the games built on it are mostly fan C&C like games that are skinned to look like the early actual C&C games. The engine can't even play the original missions and mp maps.

Can you install arbitrary apps on androidtv or only what is available in the appstore for it without jumping through hoops that possibly involve some command line shenanigans? Similar to how you can install plugins in kodi in libreelec from the official repos perhaps but have to jump through hoops for arbitrary programs? Your real issue then is that libreelec's ecosystem isn't as vibrant perhaps and that it doesn't run on locked down hardware the user doesn't really control so the media companies allow high quality streaming to them?

Arbitrary applications isn't a TVOS like the original poster asked for, it's a general purpose OS.

Docker and Flatpack are both containerization technologies and work in similar ways under the hood. Docker is more geared towards running headless services that other systems access while flatpack is more geared towards desktop gui applications that are interacted with from the same system they run on.

Guess it hits a sweet spot of complicated enough to be interesting but simple enough that it's feasible for a lone programmer to make good headway?

Glad it's the court of human rights as the UK is still nominally a part of that if I recall correctly so hopefully derails UK governments attempts as well.

Always nice to see new open source emulation projects on the scene. GBA seems a popular target though, something particular about it?

Thanks, this tends to be functionality I dont need that often but when I do it's frustratingly difficult finding something that doesnt feel like it's going to need me to sign over my soul so it's good to know about other open source solutions.

Seem to be quite a few of these types of apps, I've been using landrop recently, how does this one compare?
