@Dovahkiin @Ottovonshitpost @conceptualjames There are solutions like non-compliance, simple sabotage, and agorism. Combining all three could allow us to create a new, better society. Real change needs to be grassroots.

I have an article about this topic on my website.

@nozaki @Ottovonshitpost @Dovahkiin @conceptualjames I'm not. I don't know why you think that. I don't think I have any Eastern European ancestry.

@Dovahkiin @Ottovonshitpost @conceptualjames I honestly don't care if it happened or not. I think WWII as a whole was a psy-op.

@Dovahkiin @Ottovonshitpost @conceptualjames I've done my research. I know that the vast majority of historical events for the past couple of centuries have all been scripted.

@Ottovonshitpost @conceptualjames Both were Rothschild scams to justify more globalization via human rights abuses.

@beardalaxy No wonder I'm seeing more people just selling their cars directly.

@xianc78 It seems like the Retroid Pocket 2S has a lot of nice colors (especially the translucent ones), but the dealbreaker for me is that it runs on Android. I ended up ordering a Powkiddy RGB30 for its similar specs and the unique 720 x 720 square display (plus it's about $85 total). The one huge drawback for me so far is the fact that there's just three plain colors available: black, white, and navy (I chose the navy one). At least it runs on GNU+Linux (JELOS). I thought of getting the Analogue Pocket, but I'm avoiding it for the price and the software support. I'll write more when I eventually get it.

@berkberkman That device seems a lot more portable than the Arbernic RG503. It seems like something that can actually fit in your pocket unlike the Arbernic, which is the size of a mini-tablet. It also seems to have the exact same button layout and ports as the Arbernic which is good.

I haven't tried JelOS even though it's compatible with my device. The real question is if it can emulate N64 at least decently. The problem with N64 emulation is a software one rather than a hardware one (it can emulate Dreamcast games at full speed so it's more than capable of emulating N64), but from what I can tell, none of the emulators or operating systems compatible with my device seem to emulate N64 at an acceptable level, including JelOS (I've read forum posts saying that they still have problems). But if yours can run N64 games then it proves that it might be a mix between hardware and software issues.

>I'll write more when I eventually get it.

Oh please do. Even though I don't plan on getting a new device anytime soon, I think we should let people know which device to actually get as buying these things is a major gamble just from the compatibility issues alone.

Be sure to try out as many platforms as you can. If there are multiple emulators per platform, be sure to check out each. Also try out any engine ports as well. Some of them require you to configure the controls as these engines were made for PC. Be sure to include that along with the set-up process.

Seriously, why hasn't anyone created an emulator for the click-wheel iPod games yet? There are finally efforts to preserve feature phone games and flash games, but it seems like iPod games have been forgotten. Even if most of them were crap, they are still worth preserving in my opinion.

It's already known that these game packages are just zip files with a different extension. We just need to reverse engineer the executable in the archives.

I just learned that Apple killed off the entire iPod line last year.

As much as I hate Apple products, RIP. One of these days, I should get a used click-wheel iPod just to try out iPod Linux, and maybe be the first person to create an emulator for all those click-wheel iPod games.
