If you feel like you need/want software from AUR you should check out Distrobox. It can run any distro on top of your installation using Docker under the hood, but it tightly integrates into your system so with little effort you can run AUR programs from your launcher as if they were natively installed on your Mint.

It’s also (still) available on Android and iOS.

That’s how it’s done here as well. A USB modem attached to a raspberry pi (or just any pc) which answers the dial up connection from the Dreamcast, routing it through broadband.

I love projects like this and I have connected my Dreamcast, but never when I went to play has anyone actually been online. (anyone can check who’s playing online with their Dreamcast here: https://dreamcast.online/now/ )

Some people enjoy living in pain and suffering.

Cool project. The description here reads to and from Dreamcast VMU, but from what I’ve read on the Github page it’s only to get them onto the Dreamcast, and not from. I’m still looking for a way to backup my physical VMU and to be able to continue playing on emulators.

Yes, but for how long?

I’d consider an optical drive emulator like GDEMU so you can store your entire collection on an SD card. This ensures your physical collection lasts longer and loading times are shorter as well.

At launch the PS3 was one of the cheapest Blu-ray players available.

Agreed, this has been my experience as well. I tried switching to full time Linux multiple times. I had already used it on my laptop for years but on my desktop I kept going back to Windows because things on Windows just worked the way I wanted and thought that for some things there weren’t any Linux alternatives.

That was until two years ago I challenged myself to only use Linux for a month. I’ve been using Linux on my desktop ever since and only use Windows now and then to play a single game that doesn’t work on Linux due to anti cheat.

We’re not keen on sinking so we’re all sittin’ here a thinking

Cos we built it too big and we’ve run out of wood

Luckfox Pico Mini might be you’re looking for. It’s a Linux SBC that costs around 10 USD, in a Teensy/Raspberry Pico or even smaller formfactor.

I suppose xrandr can help you here: See the Arch wiki about xrandr

It was never officially named PSX, but it was called that way by people for some reason. I guess to differentiate the fat and slim versions.

To add to this: A certain type of Soviet submarine used a lead-bismuth alloy as coolant for their reactor. The coolant solidifies at ambient temperature so it had to be heated indefinitely by some way or another or else it solidified and trashed the reactor. I don’t think any of them exist anymore since Russia wasn’t able to afford sustaining the giant navy after the Soviet collapse.

Just goes to show how insane nuclear submarine engineering is, or was at some point.
