  • There’s nothing mission critical in there so I’m mostly fine with reinstalling.

    I just wanted to update VLC and my other media players so Youtube would work again. The AntiX repos only had outdated versions, which could be due to the fact that AntiX-21 was followed by AntiX-23 last year. Maybe it’s no longer kept up to date? I tried grabbing the newest versions direct from their websites/githubs first but it’s not as simple as grabbing an .exe and clicking it on Linux so I gave up and just went ham on the repos, assuming they wouldn’t let me brick my computer.

    Lesson learned, I suppose




  • I started with the PlayStation so both the SNES and MD are a bit before my time. I have delved into the SNES catalogue since there’s lots of well-known and still talked about games and series for an easy jumping-off point. Streets of Rage isn’t actually a bad recommendation at all, it’d probably fit my handheld use case very well. Do you have any favored Mega Drive/Genesis emulator on Android? I assume there’s a RetroArch core (or three) for that













  • I had never really played Outbreak too much back in the day since it just didn’t appeal to me as a single player experience even though I loved all the other Resident Evil games. As soon as I heard about the fan server I knew I had to try it out with some friends.

    From what I understand the fans reverse-engineered the server by analyzing the packets the PS2 was sending out to the official game servers, not that I really know what that means monke-beepboop It was just unbelievably cool to get to experience the PS2 online experience 20 years later and I have nothing but respect for the sorts of people who make things like emulation and fan servers possible rat-salute-2
