Wait why are distros removing HEVC?

A Steam library view with shelves of boxes would be so cool. Sorta like what GOG has

Haven’t owned a cartridge system since I lived under parents and yeah, it was the same for me, turn it off when you’re done using it because it’ll drive the power bill up and money doesn’t grow on trees and all that. I can’t imagine systems like the SNES or N64 really drew that much power though? But as a tree hugger and an engineer, I tend to avoid any level of waste. I doubt cartridges suffer from any significant wear from being left on, since they’re just solid state electronics.

Anything with a fan gets immediately turned off when my session ends because I’m hyper sensitive to fan noise (not sure if this is an autism thing?)

It drives me nuts when Linux applications do this. Delete features should be analogous to rm, simple as that.

KDE recently added an “extract and delete archive” context menu option and it’s absolutely useless because it moves the archive to the Trash folder

As if money actually goes to the content creators 😂

Someday we’ll learn that GitHub just isn’t the place for this kind of stuff…

That’s what I’m getting at, Nintendo only needs the argument “this could be used to rip a game onto the cartridge, then distribute it” and US courts will bend over and grant them the DMCA strike

Someone help me understand the feature to lock a game to the cartridge - does this mean it copies the game data into the SNES cartridge so you don’t need the GameBoy cart anymore? If so, this could give Nintendo’s lawyers enough power to shut this project down, which would be very sad

Yet another reminder that piracy on Linux is the way because new files don’t have execute permissions by default

Sure this is sad, but what even breaks in these? They’re single board computers inside plastic shells. Of course the controllers can break/wear out but those are easily replaceable

If you’re referring to the weight of the housing leveraging the connector, I think printing with a low infill would make that a non-issue. The cable itself is going to be much heavier by comparison

This is a much more involved method than just seeding everything you download to at least a 1.0 ratio, but if you’re extremely resource-limited, then sure

The lawsuit dance has already been done. Can’t sue over decompiled code, but they can sue over assets, so anyone who wants to actually play something made with a decompilation has to supply a “legal” ROM that’s rightfully “theirs” for the assets to be sourced from

I think Jiggies of Time is Kurko’s only full-length Banjo Kazooie mod. For example, Gruntilda’s Mask only has Clock Town from Majora’s Mask

They posted a siterip on archive dot org but I doubt I’m allowed to post a link here

Yeah I’m a huge Raspberry Pi fan but not only is it practically impossible to find a pi at that price, pi’s also can’t reliably emulate games past the 32 bit era

Finished the Switch remaster a couple years ago and the ending hit me with a wave of existentialism. I’m kinda glad I played as an adult, I don’t think I would’ve been emotionally developed enough as a kid to appreciate it

PC games, just don’t feel like making arbitrary code execution a cakewalk for internet strangers
