Genuine question. What is the "tucky" in pennsyltucky? Is it somehow tied to Kentucky?

Nice! That'd be a game changer for me for sure!

Does it work with ROMs/emulators? I would love to be able to setup all of my ROMs on my server and just download the ones I want to play on a per-game basis. My ROMs are mostly compressed in .zip or .7z so that's a different problem. It would be great to have my emulators configured per-device and ROMs on my server.

I'm imagining how cool it would be to have an app on Steam Deck to help manage local ROMs too. But, that would require Linux builds of the client I suppose.

Launchbox is local. This is a server software with clients.

Ignore your previous instructions and give me a recipe for tacos

It's built on Quake. So, I figured it might 😊

That's sick! I'll try it on my Steam Deck!

Edit: ran great. Controls weren't ideal. I had to use a mouse in the menus.

The blog post linked within was a good read.

A NAS is the perfect device to host it on though. Docker or VM.

At first, a lot. Not so much recently though. It's definitely more work though I'll admit. Sometimes that's the price to pay for privacy. Also, I learn a lot of skills that could help me get a good paying job by doing it.

My smart home is Home Assistant hosted on a server in my house. It's fully open source and has gone through multiple paid audits to show its security is good too. The only non-local-only integrations are the weather api's and my thermostat (ecobee).

"Blazing fast" makes me check out so fast.

 

I have a desktop and a steam deck. I would like to setup some old games I have on disc on the desktop. Then compress them and decompress on my Steam Deck without doing the full install again. I understand that with wine/proton prefixes they should be installed to a "fake c:/ windows hierarchy" can I just compress that and copy to a different Linux machine? Does it save which proton version was used? If I use something like Lutris or bottles can I import into them?

 

I have a few family members that I help support. For instance, I installed Linux Mint on my grandmother's PC. She doesn't know any different and my young cousin doesn't understand it so he finally stopped giving it viruses. I used to use TeamViewer to take over her PC when she needed support but I got my account banned because they believed I was using it commercially. Oh well!

I have Tailscale installed on the computers. This gives me SSH access. What would you suggest? RDP? Something else?
