Great post! Very enjoyable format. Will be checking out Deliverance on GOG (first one first, these games have entirely slipped my radar until now)

I love my surface duo for ds emulation!

I recently finished main story in bully on ps2 (emu). About 55% completion after end mission, and 11 hrs. Did some additional missions to get me up to about 65% and then retired the game as im not all that crazy about hunting down blue rubber bands and whatnot. Did most of the classes, but lacked a few art and photography.

Moved to another ps2 title now: jak & daxter the precursor legacy. No experience with this series before, but enjoyable first 45 mins which is what i have been able to play so far.

Neverwinter nights still on the backburner for now, and tomorrow i will play some kind of multiplayer game with an old uni buddy of mine, but not decided which one yet

Jeg er blevet så mægtig glad for Osmand, som kort/gis-app.

I tilfelle du ikke er klar over det: hvis du har android, så får du osmand+ gratis om du laster ned fra f-droid (der man for øvrig får mange gode foss-apps). Jeg er også veldig glad for osmand - men det krever noe tid å sette det opp slik man vil!!

I remember appreciating the old school feel of the cockpit screen in the x-wing in rogue one. They did not try to modernize that at all

When watching some videos from retro game youtube channels, they tend to point to how much more daring they were back then, and all new games will just safe it. New aaa games cost so much they cant fail, but then a flop was to a larger extend "meh" and move on for the studio. Guess that made some of these games feel more freaky as you say

I just completed bully on the ps2 (emulated on pcsx2)! Had a lot of fun, planning on going for jak & daxter series next i think. I never owned the console myself, so there are many gems ive never tried, and many i only played at friends houses sporadically.

This thread is a gold mine for suggestions!

I love soulcalibur 2! I played it (and still play sometimes) on gamecube tho, but apart from a different special character (link from zelda in the gc version), its the same game. Tried soulcalibur 3 as well, but didnt really get into it - cant put my finger on why, but it was ages since i tried 3

He will just make a mcdonalds a national park and name that after himself

Ive never used their software, but it exists for android, so maybe you can use it on linux with waydroid?

I have the original and it works both with 2.4ghz and bluetooth out of the box. Been a very good experience.

Just chiming in that lower decks was what really set the snowball running for me (having before only seen first three seaons of disco, first season of picard, some of the tng movies ages ago and the chris pine movies). Even if you dont catch all the references, lower decks is a very enjoyable series and i plan to rewatch it after having seen the other stuff. Did snw first after lower decks and liked that a lot, and currently doing tng and enjoying that a lot.

 

Oh boy this is a long shot but here goes: back in 2007 when mass effect came out i watched a user made video on gametrailers.com from the game which ended up being tge deciding factor in buying it. It was called (i think) just "planet" and featured mako driving on a red planet set to the track adiemus by karl jenkins (or perhaps credited as the adiemus project or just adiemus).

I wanna get my nostalgia fix but i have never been able to find it again. So..... does anyone know how to find it? 🫠

 

Anyone got xenia working on linux? If so what strategy did you use?

I can get the og version of xenia "working" with bottles, but it runs really poorly. Xenia canary does not work (just hangs with black screen and grey menu options for a couple of secs before crashing).

 

I have a couple of flatpaks installed that are no longer available on flathub, and i want to make sure to back them up so that i can run them later if i install a fresh distro for example.

Is it as simple as copying the application folder from ~/.local/share/flatpak and adding it there later? Does that include dependencies as well?

 

I got some courses on zenva and gamedev.tv thru a humble bundle some time back and would like to store the videos from these courses locally. "Save video as" is greyed out, but is there a common technique to download such content despite this?

 

I want to get into the Star Trek universe but dont know where to start. I have previously seen first three seasons of Disocvery and first season of picard. Picard was cool but disocvery didnt quite track, a little boring and not adventure focused enough. However loving lower decks now (just started season 4) and want to get into the more canon stuff.

I have access to TNG, DS9, Voyager, Enterprise and SNW. TOS i could probanly get access to if i want, but gotta admit that is not very enticing.

So where to start? TNG?

If it helps (and i dont get shunned for this), i am a stargate guy and love especially sg-1 and the adventure of the week format and the character ensemble

 

I have a couple of local copies of my media collection, but in case of my house burning down in a fire i would like to not have to rebuild my entire media collection. rsync.net offers some fairly reasonable storage prices (i guess there are many other good options as well).

Would you guys have any second thoughts on storing the entirety of your media collection on a remote server like that unencrypted?

 

I just bought a second-hand surface duo running android for the sole purpose of emulating nintendo ds. I want a stylus to emulate that part of the experience, but all styluses are a lot more expensive than i anticipated. But they seem to include stuff i really dont need such as bluetooth connectivity and such like.

Can i just get any pointy plastic thing to use as a stylus or do i need one of these that connect to the phone?

I recently got a used surface duo for the sole purpose of emulating nintendo ds and 3ds. I have retroarch running with Desmume but as far as i understand, drastic offers better performance on android.

I know i can get it on the play store (for now at least), but i dont have a google account (and i will not sign up for one). I can see that there are many sites offering downloads of an .apk, but they all seem pretty shady to me.

What would be the best way to get a malware-free .apk for drastic? Am i better of waiting for it to go open source and build it myself?

 

This is maybe a little paranoid but... i have a jellyfin server that i let some family members use. one of them intends to use an app for apple tv, which i think is swiftfin or something like that. i am a bit skeptical about smart-TVs and the data they phone home with, so i was wondering if there is any chance that i could be compromised due to the linux isos i host on jellyfin due to some sneaky smart-TV stuff?

 

What is considered the best/safest way to pirate printed magazines? On the Awesome Piracy-repo, there are some links, but they either don't work or look sus (except for maybe magazinelib.com).

If you endulge in free printed magazines, what is your preferred way?
