I can't speak on multiplayer experiences, but i have several emulators set up on my OLED deck. GameCube, N64, switch, ps2. They work well, and i have a 3DO pro2 i use while it's docked to my 4k tv, sound through a surround sound bar with woofer - amazing sound. I mostly run skyrim and Balder's Gate 3 at the moment, but i enjoyed BotW and my son likes sonic.

Yep, it's that easy. I have it on my pixel 2xl, degoogled and it's still usable {android 14)

I'm late to the comment board, but I had to say something. I was amazed when one day my broken Balders' Gate III P22 install suddenly not only worked, but worked with Vulkan. Until now, I figured it was an improvement to the Proton-GE or Experimental that came down around that time. Anyway, when I loaded my game (in the underdark) on my OLED, I was shocked at the improvement.

Not only was the framerate closer to 40+ vs 28-30, but it was vibrant. The resolution appeared to be better, too. It was gratifying to see it looked better than on my ancient Lenovo gaming laptop (circa 2016), which, to my surprise, handled it quite well considering the age of the NVidia card.

No, you aren't. You just haven't been conditioned your whole life to accept 100% surveillance.

MicroG installer revived combined with the LSposed signature spoofer module solves this problem, as long as you are willing to root with Magisk.

Since devices that came with Android 10, all devices are expected to adhere to a standard Android interface. The GSI stands for generic system image.

Given a particular Hardware platform and drivers any GSI should run on any matching Hardware.

I know that Andy Yan's LineageOS GSI works on my sm-t510 (a64 variant) and from user testimonials, it also runs on the sm-x720 (arm variant, TAB S8).

I linked the forum section that contains the thread for his and many other GSIs.

I have the P6. It's an all around good phone. Don't forget to look at GSI ROMs. All recent devices handle those. I can and eventually will install LineageOS on my Galaxy Tab S8 and have it on my old Tab low end tablet.

Incidentally, microg is much better now than when he wrote that.

The automatic build server sometimes hangs, and it can be weeks before someone notices and kicks it. Builds, I think, are alphabetic based on device code name. I've gone for 2 months without a push on Taimen.

Rooting and using LSposed can make the process simpler. I use Andy yan's GSI on my sm-t510.

If it is WebDAV, DAVx5 has a feature that makes those shares available as a local volume. An sFTP app can be used to xfer files.

TrueNAS probably has a service for synchronized folders like google drive. I don't know how to access NFS or SMB transparently.

We aren't third-world yet, but if we can't excise the political cancer soon, we will be.

At least Chromecast for TV basically does this. I can search for something and it will tell me all the ways I can watch for any installed app even unsubscribed.

Still, the issue of paying multiple monthly fees to see what you want is ludicrous. It's as if the media companies maliciously complied with consumers' desire to pick and choose what they watch rather than pay $200 a month for 1000 stations they don't watch.

Now, you have to pay $200 to get all the services that have what you want to watch - and you still have to sift through the drek.

Much better, that. /s

That is a trust based transaction when parent asks where their child is going as well.

Putting tracking malware and using surveillance all the time is invasion of privacy, teaching the child that surveillance is okay, and completely lacking a trust relationship, which is bad within a family.

Android CUPS Print, on F-Droid.

This app provides a Print Service to Android. This means that once it's installed, you need to enable it in the 'Print' section of the settings app. Once the service is enabled, printers are automatically discovered using the mDNS protocol. You can print anything you want from any app, as long as the print service is enabled.

If you take a look at their list of features, you might grudgingly be willing to go without uBlock. It uses Adblock plus, and it allows you to Define your own custom block lists. I agree uBlock Origin is probably the better tool though.

I second this. I discovered it a few weeks back, and it's impressive and fast.

Anti-trust lawsuit in 3... 2...

*rolls D-100* ... I disbelieve!

I don't know how well it scales, but I find Metro to be rather good. Find it of f-droid. I like that it randomizes the playlist rather than gets the list of songs and applies randomization to the play order. It also shows lyrics at a touch, if they're in the metadata, and apparently recognizes lyric synchronization if it is there.

Well, I just ripped a few of my old DVDs with handbrake, and I upscaled by setting the resolution to 720p and ensuring the "upscale" cjljeckbox is ticked.

Tovmy eye, it looks pretty good on my 55" 1080p TV, and I noticed in my voddeo player it scaled to my display size appropriately. If I imply ripped it, the video would have a hugee black box around it ony high red display.

I'd say using handbrake is fairly effective once you get it off the disk, for which I used a rip to mkv app in Linux.
