Whoah, that’s cool! Gonna have to try it out at some point.

I just use furnace to make covers, but it would be nice to use the actual chip at some point. Maybe there’s a stray PC98 on ebay or something lol

Especially when the potato laptop stops being so potato all of a sudden. It’s satisfying.

Ugh, yeah. Dual booting is such a headache lol

The best thing to do is to just jump in.Pick a distro, doesn’t matter which and just start using it.

For software just browse the Music category of pamac, discover, or whatever app-front you decide to use. There’s some really good stuff in there.

For the most part it works really well! 90% of games on steam work without any hassle and the 10% with errors have workarounds. It’s not perfect but it’s definitely getting better as time goes on, especially with more anticheats having compatibility with linux than 5 years ago. When it comes to standalone games, it can be a mixed bag because sometimes it works perfectly and other times it doesn’t, but launchers like lutris help get the games that don’t work run decently. When it comes to emulators, they work really well, sometimes better than running them on windows, but keep in mind where you’re getting them. I have less issues overall with the flatpack variants of emulators.

Get a lighter and an aerosol spray. Anytime you see one fly by let it rip.

I only ever used third party apps to go through subreddits anyway, so it makes it a hell of a lot easier to switch.

Yes ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Right now, i’m messing around with furnacetracker. It’s got almost everything in one package! The chip I usually focus on is the YM2608 chip because it’s close to a genesis chip. I’m still trying to wrap my head around it though, the third FM channel when split up is still a mystery to me lol

I like to go around on my rollerskates, idgaf how goofy it looks now it’s fun to me.

Rocking Endeavour OS right now. It’s been working well for me so far.
