Oh that’s absolutely fantastic. I already use Jellyfin as my music library, but the mobile experience is not good. This will fix my only complaint

Thanks for the very kind comment. Happy to hear you’re enjoying Yuzu :)

You correct in the statement Ryujinx aims for accuracy and does not implement certain performance workarounds Yuzu did. However, your comment is exaggerated. Even Ryujinx isn’t a cycle accurate emulator, nowhere close.

I’ll reinforce my comment from months ago: I have the latest version of Yuzu, the keys, the firmware, the Linux and Windows versions, and links to ROM sites, and I’ll distribute them forever to whoever asks in my DMs. I packaged them in a simple .zip with easy to follow instructions.

That said, why simply not use Ryujinx? Even on the Steam Deck performance is very good nowadays. Super Mario Wonder plays at 60 FPS on the Deck (though you need to enable a very simple mod that disables some weird function the game runs, otherwise it drops to 30 FPS all the time). In fact, for AMD GPUs, you’re doing yourself a huge favor by going Ryujinx over Yuzu and derivatives.

Ryujinx is solid, accurate and well known, it’s a trusted emulator. The Yuzu forks are unknown, managed by non experienced people (one was quite literally created by a teenager with zero coding knowledge) and extremely ephemeral.

I mean, that’s what all Steam Deck competitors really are. They’re Windows 11 with atrocious launchers on top, some of which acceptable and some very buggy, plus a literal standard AMD APU that AMD is selling by the bucket, and half of them share board designs sold by Chinese suppliers pretty much ready made.

It’s totally possible if they subsidize hardware costs and sell a PC with a fancy frontend and small form factor.

It’s completely impossible if they’re looking for custom hardware.

basic Windows and Office usage

lol

Wait, is that not already an option? My phone came with Samsung Wallet as the default, but when I downloaded Google Pay (or whatever it’s called now after 4 name changes) it asked me which one to use and I’ve never seem Samsung Wallet again.

I agree we should support him, but you know who should be more concerned with giving him and other open source maintainers money? The billion dollar corporations that rely on these critical projects and use them absolutely for free. Amazon, Microsoft, Sony, Samsung, Google, Siemens, Motorola, God knows how many more.

but requires you to be connected to the same network as a computer running altstore.

So you mean iOS doesn’t natively support JIT for App Store apps and requires hacky workarounds?

Do we know if these emulators will support JIT? JIT has always been prohibited on iOS (which is why there are no browsers other than Safari - Firefox and Chrome on iOS are just a Safari WebView plus a crappy interface on top).

Even when sideloading emulators, you only get JIT by paying for a special developer license or using exploits on very specific iOS versions.

Without JIT, sure, go nuts emulating the NES… But forget about anything more demanding than a GameCube, or using this to run a VM or something.

Not sure why your comment was downvoted, you’re actually correct, Windows is got better battery life. The only reason I’m not running it on this MacBook is an unpatched bug in the Intel HD Graphics driver that prevents it from working with newer Windows versions on MacBooks with this specific display adapter.

Still far from ideal, though. My 2017 MacBook Air with a severely degraded battery lasts 4 hours on macOS, but only 2.5h on Ubuntu 24.04 using the power saving profile - and that’s with less intensive usage, as macOS keeps rendering gaussian blurs everywhere and launchpad and spotlight and all those annoying services.

I’m not surprised that something carrying the Pokémon brand is somehow both extremely lucrative but also unwilling to dedicate the minimal effort necessary to add obvious features

At this point, it would be cool to have a gaming event at all that doesn’t invite random Hollywood celebrities instead of actual game developers

Eh, I get what you mean but not really. This person didn’t try Arch or some weirdly specific distro.

Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu, Mint and derivatives all promise to be full desktop solutions to regular users, mostly domestic, some enterprise. And if that’s the promise, you don’t have to have a deep understanding of Linux or even PCs to use them - go ask Mac users what kernel they’re running or what a system daemon is, yet they can use their systems just fine.

If Fedora promises to be a good all purpose distro, having the majority of potential users not able to easily install GPU drivers because “it’s philosophically against our distro to have a simple toggle for proprietary drivers” is just a terrible choice, no getting around that, even if a more experienced user with the right knowledge could install said drivers in less than 5 minutes.

I love LibreOffice. Often when it’s mentioned I’ve seen people with the opposite sentiment, but it never caused me any trouble and I really enjoy the small tabs option for the interface.

Microsoft Office has once decided to take my locally created file, shove it somewhere in OneDrive, then revert it to the state it was 24 hours prior - I couldn’t recover the newer version. Guess which software never deleted my files? LibreOffice.
