Pretty disingenuous for the title to say they talk about the bombchu bowling girl when in reality their statement is "we're not going to talk about that" in response to the interviewer being a weirdy

    Do not leave the hut. Eat like an animal and throw your shit from the hut at the T-Rex's face. Hopefully it will get sick and perish on it's own from explosive T-Rex diarrhea.

    Alright, great choices! First off, if you're looking for an all in one solution, retroarch is an emulator front end that then uses cores of other existing emulators, and you can just download everything at once. I don't actually recommend this, because the interface is controller focused and the settings aren't super intuitive to change, but the option is there.

    For GBA, mGBA is well regarded and feature rich (it's got settings for, for example, boktai's solar sensor or megaman battle network 4.5's battle chip gate).

    For DS, I've previously used desmune, but the consensus seems to be that MelonDS runs much more efficiently.

    I haven't run much 3DS emu myself, but I've heard good things about azahar since citra was shut down.

    Finally, PS2 the obvious choice is PCSX2, though setup will be a little more complicated. Specifically you'll need to obtain and install BIOS files which ARE Sony proprietary property, and as such not included with the emulator. Internet archive has them (show all > PS2_BIOS.zip > misc bios starting with ps2, depending on your desired region).

    I will say, the GBAs low cost of development means the library is full of hidden gems and I highly recommend exploring it. Personally I was a big fan of the Summon Night Swordcraft Story games (make your own weapons with a variety of fighting styles), Kojimas lesser known GBA game Boktai (1, for a variety of reasons, a game about fighting vampires with a solar powered gun), and Astro Boy: Omega Factor (a wonderful beat em up by the much beloved Treasure), though that's just a few with more of an action focus. If you're looking for reccs in a particular genre, feel free to reach out

    Yeah it's probably easier than you think, though some emulators are best obtained from git just because it's the surest way to know you're getting them from the source. Many also have a dedicated website with download links. There are sites for identifying and downloading emulators, the emulator zone comes to mind, but they've been around forever and aren't necessarily the best at being up to date. If there's something particular you're looking for, I'm happy to point you in the right direction.

    Keep in mind, the property damage after the murder of George Floyd was started by a white supremacist, too. "Umbrella man" smashed windows on an auto zone and spray painted it "free shit zone," it would later be set on fire. Out of 20 people charged in Minnesota for rioting, only 4 were actually local to the state.

    I've got an old win10 laptop. It's nothing fancy in 2025, but I use it now and then while traveling, just to have a proper computer on hand. It's time to move it over to Linux, and I have A LITTLE Linux experience. I work in software dev, so I know my way around CLI, but I don't have much firsthard experience, other than occasionally using Kali for offsec tools. What are the distros I should be considering for a personal gaming laptop for occasional use for both gaming and occasional general use? Why?
