I spent my ninth birthday at a funeral home because my grandfather died two days earlier.

No, but Victor Ireland now runs Gaijinworks. However, it looks like neither are involved based on the credits on the PlayStation Store page for the game.

Wouldn’t these not work on an unmodified PlayStation without an exploit? The system has copy protection that’s specifically meant to prevent bootlegs from running. Did they figure something out to bypass that like on the Dreamcast that I don’t know about?

I have to stay away from first-person games because they make me super nauseous.

At best these fake emulators are just wasting your time (probably for ad revenue) and at worst they’re trying to steal your bank account.

Thank you for the correction. I try to be as accurate as possible when providing information, but I misremembered the specs.

I have a Thinkpad T480 and I’m very happy with it. I paid about $250 (~£190) for mine. It came with 16 GB RAM, but is upgradable to 32 GB. The one I bought came with a 128 GB SSD, but I swapped it out for a 1 TB drive which added another $100 (~£76) to my initial investment. This model originally came with Windows 10 and most on the market will come with it, but can be updated to 11 if desired.

I personally have not used Win11 since they made some changes I don’t like, so I can’t really give you advice on that aspect.

I use Strawberry for mine.

Yo dawg, I heard you like emulating, so I put an emulator in your emulator so you can emulate while you emulate.

More or less. I think there are some differences between the Q and K based models, but they’re close enough to not require separate ports of Rockbox.

You should look into Rockbox. It’s an open source alternative firmware for a variety of portable media players that adds features such as support for more file formats (and it runs Doom). As for which supported players I’d recommend then maybe a flash modded iPod or an AIGO Eros Q or K (also sold as the HIFI WALKER H2, Surfans F20, or AGPTek H3).

If you listen closely to the buzzing it makes you can hear the Game Boy begging for the sweet release of death.

In all seriousness though, I’m more than happy with the available “off-the-shelf” Game Boy mods. Not to mention that things like this are way beyond my skill level.

If you mean like older Megami Tensei games or Etrian Odyssey, then I can handle those. If you mean something more like Skyrim, then that’s a no.

RPGs all the way for me. Nearly all first-person games make me incredibly nauseous. I’m highly prone to motion and simulator sickness.

Are you referring to a drawing tablet? If so, then a good number of ones from the better known brands are supported by the kernel by default. Your safest bet though is Wacom. Wacom is definitely the best supported brand, but it tends to be more expensive than other brands (such as XP-pen and Huion). Non-Wacom branded tablets may require a little bit more initial configuration, like adding a udev rule (I had to do that for my Huion Inspiroy Ink).

Qmmp can use them too.

It’s not open source, but Tumblr is a decent option if you want something fairly easy to setup. Additionally, it can look very professional with a good theme..

As others have already mentioned, Pixelfed is probably your best option for a FOSS solution to your problem.

The thing you’re looking for is called an Input Method Editor. The only one I’ve ever used on Linux is Fcitx which I really liked. I haven’t used it in a few years though.
