Tailscale?

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.

I’ll play whatever game is good, from whatever platform has the best price, provided it’s compatible.

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.

It’s excellent. There’s missing art assets (placeholder graphics, especially noticeable with the keepsakes - they’re all just gold rings with a single letter pricetag rn), but the gameplay loop is great, the mechanics all appear to be in place and the audio is incredible (just wait until the zone 2 boss fight).

It absolutely feels like a worthy successor to the original. Mel plays very differently than Zag, but the controls are no less tight. God Mode returns if you dislike “git gud”.

Playing it on my Steamdeck, and thoroughly enjoying it.

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.

Raw version

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Yeah, Near was a genius, too. They invented the MSU-1 virtual expansion “chip” for the SNES, which allows for CD audio and video on SNES games (and with an appropriate flashcard, it can interface with and run on actual SNES hardware).

And Ares

Near, creator of bsnes/Higan/ares. Their story is tragic.

Dude, with the exception of Gamepass, Linux gaming is really easy.

If you’re okay with Redhat/Fedora, using Nobara Linux (it’s a spin-off, unofficial, but by the guy who does a lot of the Proton [magic compatibility sauce] stuff, GloriousEggroll, who AFAIK is a dev at RedHat) literally installs everything you need.

Steam → Steam
GoG/Epic → Heroic Launcher
Amazon/Blizzard → Lutris
Gamepass → You have to use the cloud version with Edge browser

Click, install, game.

There’s only a few Anticheat PITA titles still (I believe Valorant is one) that won’t work.
