  • It’s a cute device. My only concern is, how durable is the screen? Does it use Gorilla display like on smartphones, so it can handle scratches and a fall from small height in example? I think a clamshell design would have been better, but then you cannot use the display without opening it up. On the other side, for all those tasks you would use without opening it up, I would probably prefer my phone. I’m probably a more practical guy. This definitely need some extra protection layer.

    I don’t want to sound too negative here, as I just focus one aspect while watching the images and videos. The form factor is pretty cool and I’m glad Anbernic is experimenting with many designs. So this is not a complaint reply here.




  • If you make any changes to the game files in Steam, including compression, then Steam will update the files and redownload them. And for online games, you could even get a ban if an Anticheat system thinks you try to cheat because the files are tempered (changed).

    However there is a transparent compression available on filesystem level. Meaning files are saved compressed and look and work like uncompressed files. Something similar what Windows has I believe. EXT4 does not have transparent compression, but I often read Btrfs and ZFS do. I have no experience with that, so cannot assist. But at least you should be able to search for this now. Have in mind that compressed filesystem would be slower.


  • That’s totally okay and I am glad you found a way to connect to people. I myself use Ai translation (I run the Ai models locally on my machine) here and there. In example I have a blog and sometimes it happens that Chinese sites or forums link to my posted articles. Just out of curiosity I use translation tool to see what they are saying. I know sometimes can translation from a very different language like Chinese to English sound off, unless you use the highend models. In your case it didn’t sound wrong, the opposite in fact, it sounded too “perfect”.

    For longer articles and posts (I mean if it is much longer than the initial post here), I would suggest to add a disclaimer at the end. Just in case something sounds strange or is plain and simple wrong (can happen with Ai). And nobody can say you would hide using Ai or anything like that. There is absolutely no problem in using Ai to translate text, so keep doing it. Thanks for your replies and the time for explanation.


  • I was also looking for a fork. Major concern of such fork is, if I can trust the developers and package maintainers (in Linux), and if its up to date very close to original Firefox. That eliminates almost all forks. Librewolf was a candidate I would have installed and tried, but its missing a feature: it does not have builtin support for passwords. I know why its excluded and understand that. I know how to use KeePass application to store my passwords. But I personally want it in the browser builtin without any additional applications.

    BTW no, my reply is not a request for alternatives. I just wanted to point out a missing feature in Librewolf.






  • That is a similar argument about emulation contributing to piracy. Providing your own disc does not mean its piracy. In general the argumentation itself is “stupid” in my opinion too, but not ungrounded. I mean in case of the PC ports requiring a specific ROM or ISO file with a specific hash means, its not your own copy of the game you need to get from somewhere. That is in fact contributing to piracy.

    But in case Rockstar does it by reading files directly out of a disc you provide, not requiring one specific ISO file, then the argument of contributing to piracy falls flat. And yes, I think you are right. Not only needs this extra development time and cost, and hinders their developers to work on something different. They would most likely try to avoid any such risks.

    I guess our only hope is the community taking this in their hands and doing mods or custom tools to do this.
