@theo yes I have a RetroAchievements account but I play on the move and while I could use my phone for hotspot I don't want to bother much with it, I wish they were offline even if they don't count for rankings, just to track them myself

Well, I'm apparently swinging back towards a more Foss focused mindset again. I just reinstalled newpipe on my phone because I'm sick of YouTube shoving irrelevant shorts and ads in my timeline.

@dm I am very close to doing this myself

Having grown up as became a “thing”, I splurged on one of the many handhelds for me and my son. He’s an avid gamer of the generation.

Impressed by this little device, the Miyoo Mini+, which can be had for $60 to $80. Emulators for a bunch of handhelds and consoles. There are more powerful / larger options and plenty of software mods you can do.

Now my son wants us to start a YT channel and “review” old games as if they just launched. 🙄

@kevinctofel it is such a fantastic little device! I've had mine for a couple of weeks and I love it so much :P

@kevinctofel also you should really install OnionOS on it! It's so much better than the default firmware!

Why hello there.

The box opened showing a handheld gaming device. It’s similar to a game boy but much smaller. The case is see through with an atomic purple color to it.

Progress bars in Linux File Managers are big fat liars. They say they're done transferring something, but are they really? No.

Stop lying to me, Linux.
