I just hit the same issue a few days ago. So Debian 12 (Bookworm) still has i386 support, but that support may end as soon as next year as they haven’t confirmed i386 as an architecture for LTS.

If you do go with Debian, you can easily choose a lightweight desktop during installation.

I’m really curious if it’ll stick around even longer given how slow tech advancement has become.

I lament it, but I understand it. Last year’s reports showed that GoG was barely staying afloat. Their rival shows Linux is only 3% of current market, so GoG probably doesn’t want to spread themselves any thinner until they get some surplus cash to test the waters with.

Thank goodness for Heroic launcher.

One of my favorite remotes had the sources split across the top. Composite, Component, VGA, HDMI. And if you hit the button twice it’d cycle through the different ports of that type.

Never found a remote like that again. Now they just throw a menu to slowly browse through.

Reminds me of:

I take issue with the clickbait title and am ready to perform an “Umm… actually”. Morrowind featured controller support for years via the Xbox. It didn’t just get it. Heck, it still doesn’t officially support controllers on PC. I wouldn’t even call OpenMW devs “modders”.

My stupid gripe aside, for those who don’t know, you can pop in an OG Morrowind Xbox disk into any generation of Xbox console and it’ll play. Series X will even boost the resolution up to nearly 4K (1920p).

I saw these guys at Portland Retro Gaming Expo. I played the demo a tiny bit, and while it was interesting in a way… it felt a bit too early to be showing to people. Maybe it was the 3D printed stuff that made it amateurish.

That said, if I am recalling correctly, the was open-source (oh I found the site and it is) so maybe that whole booth was to demonstrate how someone could build their own unit.

I mean, we have Evercade and it’s not failed yet.

28 years and there is still nothing close to it. Either they focus too much on flight like Zone of Enders and Daemon X Machina, or they ground it too hard like Front Mission Evolved. No happy middleground.

I really thought with the success of Fires of Rubicon that we’d get a decent attempt at a clone.

I tried XFCE for some older hardware and had the same experience.

I poked around at stuff like fluxbox and found it too minimal. So I ended up using LXDE instead and got better results, but that was before it transitioned to LXQt. I have no idea if it’s still as lightweight as it used to be. Someone else might have to chime in.

I didn’t dive too deep into this when I encountered it, and instead just avoided decoding on the device itself, so my apologies if I am incorrect here.

I’m fairly certain you are being affected by the removal of OpenMax. Since OpenMAX hardware decoding was not actively in development, it didn’t make the transition to 64-bit and was removed in bullseye, replaced by v4l2. Unfortunately it seems like v4l2 wasn’t a 1:1 replacement and people (like me) just gave up. You can try using that post to see if your h264_v4l2m2m package can be installed, and that might fix it… but if it doesn’t I’m not sure what you can do.

I’m betting the Bluetooth ID given by the controller advertises that it is a speaker, and Windows is assuming a newly connected speaker is where the person wants to output audio. I mean, why else would you connect a speaker? /s

Fun fact: The PS5 controller also includes a microphone. My circle didn’t know a hot mic was listening in on everything until we noticed background audio in one of our captures.

Solid?? I can accept Fun… but solid is not a word I would use. The game was falling apart on it’s debut. I had to go dig up one of my first youtube favorites:

I don’t know if I’m a weird one for this, but I donate an uneven amount without a comment just so I can go back on the VOD and see if I can find exactly when it got added in.

One year it got added in exactly when a final boss powered up. Felt like I helped the bad guy.

My 10.11 migration blew up because one of my directories didn’t have enough space for the migration.

The path /var/lib/jellyfin/data has insufficient free space. Required: at least 2GB.

It looked like the jellyfin service started after the package install, but it was stuck in a loop attempting migration.

which is funny because firmware is a legacy term for what evolved into what is honestly software.

You don’t need to socket any new chips nowadays.

It’s not drama, I’m just surprised is all. He’s usually very good about his accuracy, so when the entire premise is wrong I would have expected him to retract the video instead of leaving a comment someone can miss.

It’s a pretty big mistake, though given it’s his second (casual) channel it is very low stakes.

He can’t posit that re-releases are being done on single layer DVDs to save money, but use bootlegs as proof. Bootlegs aren’t a DVD release done by the distributor. That’s a pretty fatal flaw in logic.

It’s the equivalent of “Steam games are getting re-released in a weird way” and linking to Pirate Bay torrents, and the entire video is about how cheap games have gotten since they don’t have Steam features like achievements and cloud-save.
