Nintendo shuts down Switch emulator Ryujinx
  • frozen frozen Now 100%

    I'm one of those weirdos who actually dumps all my own games with my own modded launch Switch mainly for preservation purposes.

    But then TotK came out and performed so poorly on the console itself, I exported my save to play on PC and Steam Deck. Every part of my Switch emulation journey has been legal and by-the-book: dumped my own firmware, my own keys, and my own games.

    Fuck Nintendo for bullying these developers.

    The Twitter thread says that the website with the linked keys is a fake imposter site. Not sure how true that is, but if so, that's fucked.

  • How to install apps in other locations?
  • frozen frozen Now 100%

    Honestly, it's probably not worth the hassle to try to install system apps elsewhere. Steam and Lutris, on the other hand, can put games on any mounted drive. Install them as normal, and then in Steam, set up a steam library in /Apps. In Lutris, you should have the option to choose where each game is installed each time you install one.

  • How can I fix this rotation issue?
  • frozen frozen Now 100%

    Correct. Unfortunately, it's something that each desktop environment or window manager has to implement themselves. But all the button is doing is moving some config files around, so you can probably do some digging to figure out what it's copying to where.

    Literally yes. And you don't even need to know the exact pixel resolution of the TV.

    Edit: Here are the problems with you "Wayland isn't good enough" people.

    First, you don't use Wayland, so you don't even know if it's fixed whatever weird issue you encountered with it before or if it supports a niche use case, for example.

    Second, Wayland won't get good enough for you until you start using it and reporting bugs. You think X11 was a bed of roses when it first started? Or do you think they bumped the version number 11 times for fun?

    Not sure if you're a troll, but if you're serious, nothing I say is going to change your mind, so I won't bother.

    If you're using Wayland, you can go to Settings -> Colors & Themes -> Login Screen (SDDM) and click "Apply Plasma Settings..."

    If you're using X11, it looks like you'll have to resort to hacky scripts, unfortunately.

  • SMTV:V Hype Thread
  • frozen frozen Now 100%

    I played 10 or so hours of base SMTV and really enjoyed it, but I definitely felt like it was hampered by the choice of platform, which turned me off. Tons of FPS drops and performance issues. I'm hoping SMTV:V is at least Gold rated for Steam Deck so that I still have the portability aspect.

    I played through SMTIV a few years ago and have SMTIV:A, but never touched it. Is it different enough to check out, or should I just stick to SMTV:V?

  • Disappointment with Links Awakening Remake (NSW); what could have been a great game hampered by lacklustre controls.
  • frozen frozen Now 100%

    I'm curious, my playthroughs of both the original and the remake were so long ago - but does D-pad movement buy the player anything? I agree it's rather silly that it's not an option, but I don't remember being hampered by the control scheme in any way.

  • MoonDeck is awesome!
  • frozen frozen Now 100%

    So that file can go anywhere you want, but ~/bin is a good spot (or ~/.bin if you like a tidy home folder). You can name it whatever you want, but I'd personally name it steam.sh. And then in the Buddy settings, use that file as your new Steam binary.

  • MoonDeck is awesome!
  • frozen frozen Now 100%

    There's a host app that runs on the host machine alongside Sunshine that reads your Steam library, and the Deck plugin adds an icon on each game's banner on your Deck. When you click the icon, the plugin communicates with the host app and then automatically starts a Moonlight/Sunshine session that then starts up the game you were on. You only have to add one "app" to Sunshine and set up the MoonDeckBuddy app on the host, and then you have streaming for your entire library available.

    I found MoonDeck while perusing the Decky plugin store and it's absolutely awesome. I've had Moonlight and Sunshine set up for a while because Steam streaming is very inconsistent between Deck and Linux, but I didn't use it often because it's a pain setting up launchers in Sunshine for each individual game. MoonDeck takes the hassle out of that completely, and I find myself streaming GPU-intensive games to my living room much more often nowadays. I highly recommend it!

    I've searched around, but the only GBA core that seems to exist is [spiritualized's](https://github.com/spiritualized1997/openFPGA-GBA), which doesn't have RTC support and hasn't had a release in over a year. I was actually under the impression that RTC support in cores wasn't possible, but then budude2 just released his [GB/GBC core](https://github.com/budude2/openfgpa-GBC) that *does* have RTC support. So now I'm wondering if it's possible for GBA. I ask because I play a ton of Pokemon ROM hacks that take advantage of time changes, and it would be nice to have some of the core features of the Pocket. For example, sleep/wake doesn't work for Everdrives, and save states / memories are iffy.

    What I mean by this is, when I tap the option to share the stickied "Post launch day chat" post, it shows me that I'm about to share the link `https://lemmy.world/post/2580455`. What I'm looking for is an option to prefer sharing the user's home instance version of that post, which in my case would be `https://lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz/post/2365657`.

    Full specs in first comment. So first of all, this is **not** a "Linux sucks" rant, I want to make that clear. I've been using Linux for over 10 years now. Started with Ubuntu, moved to Arch, now on openSUSE Tumbleweed on both my desktop and laptop. I'm a software dev by trade and sysadmin by hobby. But why in the shit can Valve not get Remote Play on Linux in a useable state? Let me lay out my evening yesterday. I took my car to the shop for an appointment that I knew was going to last 4+ hours, so I took my Steam Deck. I finished up Spider-Man 1 and moved on to Miles Morales. All of this was flawless (as was playing most of Spider-Man 1 on Tumbleweed, btw). I got home and decided I wanted to remote play MM from my desktop to the Steam Deck in the living room. All wired, no wifi. The reason for this is that I want to use the power of my desktop to get high quality graphics, as opposed to the medium settings at 30 FPS I get with the Steam Deck. Note that I've done this with some games before, notably Persona 5 Royal, but it's been a year or so. I launched MM for the first time on the desktop after selecting Proton-GE 8.0-6 (since that's what worked with SM1). Immediately, I was greeted with a warning that my drivers may be out of date. They aren't, but whatever, I clicked okay and the game launched fine. Cool, that's fine, I figured I'd just launch the game on desktop before I go back to the living room and connect with Remote Play. I messed around a bit to make sure it would play okay, set my graphics options, etc., it worked perfectly. I went back to the Deck and clicked Remote Play. It attempted to connect, but threw me back to the library screen. Weird, but okay. I re-launched Steam on my desktop from terminal, so I could check the logs the next time. Tried to connect again, and it worked. *Weird*... but okay. Except after loading a save, I was again thrown back to my library screen, with no option to re-connect. I checked my desktop, and the entire game had crashed. Weird. So I rebooted my machine and Deck and tried again. Same thing. Okay, fine, I figured, you know what, this is one of the things I have a Windows VM with PCIe passthrough for. So I booted the VM, booted MM, set graphics options, everything was great, cool. Went back to the Deck, and tried to connect. Again, it attempted for a second and then sent me right back to the library. That's wild. So I rebooted the VM and the Deck and tried again. Got connected and loaded the game, it didn't crash, alright, cool, we're in. Next, I started running into issues where I was getting random inputs on menus. Specifically only menus. Weird, but as long as my save doesn't get deleted, no big deal, I guess. So I played for a few minutes, then noticed the frame rate was super choppy, even though the FPS overlay from the host was reporting 100+ FPS. The Deck overlay had errored out and was reporting 3000+ FPS, which obviously isn't right. This is actually a problem I'd run into with P5R before, so I knew the fix was to go into quick battery settings and toggle the per-game profile. This fixed it, but only for a few minutes at a time. I don't remember P5R having this issue so frequently, and it's also a much bigger nuisance in a game that's not turn-based. I eventually gave up and just moved back to my desktop (Tumbleweed) to continue playing, where everything worked perfectly (minus the outdated driver warning). Needless to say, it was a *very* frustrating experience for me, and that's not a good thing. I couldn't imagine ever taking someone who's never used Linux and dumping them into that situation. I really hope Valve works on stuff like this.

    I've tried Jerboa, Liftoff, and Voyager, but I keep coming back to the standard Lemmy PWA with the Lemmy Universal Link Switcher user script. I want to share links to posts and content, but I'd like for the link to use my instance's version of the content instead of the origin, for two reasons. 1. It helps my instance federate content. 2. I want to make content discovery and subscription as easy as possible for my friends in order to push Lemmy adoption. If I share something with them from a community they aren't subscribed to, but they want to subscribe, I don't want them to have to go back to my instance, find the community, and then subscribe. If I was able to share a link to my instance's version, they would've just been able to open the sidebar (or app equivalent) and hit join. Thanks in advance!

    A patient was asked to debate a doctor on whether do-it-yourself automated insulin delivery is still needed now that DIY AID is becoming more commercially available. Personally, I will always advocate for patient empowerment. It's *my* disease, and I should be able to treat or deal with it how I want.

    I'd like the ability to share a post using my instance's version instead of the original instance, even if it's a setting that's off by default. In the interest of growing my small instance, it would be helpful to be able to share content from other instances *through* mine, if that makes sense. Thanks for reading!
