Same as Jellyfin.

DLSS 5 has changed the dual spherical chest geometry and art style because the AI model thought it would be funny.
- Comment on RetroDECK Is More Than Emulation: An Interview with the Devs (my article!) 1 day ago:
The day we get RomM integration in RetroDeck is the day I’ll start implementing RetroDeck in all my devices.
I don’t want to micro-manage my stuff. Steam solves gaming, Jellyfin solves video & audio, retro-gaming is the one thing I can’t solve yet with any FOSS solution that’s compatible with all my devices.
I need something like Jellyfin but for retro-gaming:
- multi-user
- sync & restore client config
- sync catalogue & metadata
- sync games
- sync save states

I specifically asked for those actors to make the meme extra hilarious.
They are Jackie Chan, Lucy Liu and Hiroyuki Asada.

Wait, I just realized… what if there was a mod for your favorite game that let you type a name and it would became the main character? You could have Tilda Swinton as much as you wanted.

I’m not anti-ai for every use case. I’m having fun making these and wanted to share. If you don’t like them, that’s fine.

I have a friend with a 1650 super which is way worse and he’s running it fine on Bazzite with no issues. Although there’s definitely a performance penalty which is narrowing on a monthly basis.
The only real blocker is Ableton IMHO. There’s no way around that.
If you manage to get a second drive, you could dual boot without any issues at all and no risks whatsoever.

It sounds like you tried one or more Linux distros and it didn’t work out for you. Sorry to hear that.
Would you mind sharing your specs and the distro you tried so other people in the future can learn from your experience?
Also, if you are still interested in ditching windows I could do some research and see if I can help you out with your current specs.

- Comment on Xbox as a platform is officially dead 2 weeks ago:
And this is why Sony pulled games from PC. The Steam Machine was just another reason. PCs in general are now consoles too, and Sony is afraid their traditional console loses meaning.
- Comment on Sony Pulls Back From PlayStation Games on PC 2 weeks ago:
It was too little, too late, too expensive. Logically it would sell less than expected after a lame attempt.
