Whatever alternative you’re offered, I don’t think it’s worth spending more than $50 on an emulator console. (This is the maximum make sense price for any hardware that can emulate old consoles up to PS3).

I will keep that in mind. Thank you very much. Always good to get a reality check on prices.

itGoesWooWoo,

Linus Tech Tips covered some options about a month ago. The one with the SATA drive cartridge slot got my interest a bit.

I watched this video actually. Thats how I got the idea initially. Might check it out again for details. Thanks for mentioning it.

If you want a handheld, Anbernic makes some good stuff. anbernic.com They do tend to load the SD card up with games beforehand, but the card is cheap & likely to fail, and the games are sorted & titled strangely (and may be otherwise dodgy). So you probably want to replace it with your own card with games you sourced yourself.

This looks very cool! Which one of these do you have? How modern games are you able to play with it? Is ps3 possible or rather not?

I have an RG353V. I got that one for the aesthetic (looks like an old gameboy), and I do like it, but I can see why people generally suggest a model with a horizontal form factor instead, since the vertical (gameboy shaped) is not very ergonomic. I mainly stick to 8 or 16-bit games. but it should be able to handle 5th gen consoles (saturn, ps, n64) just fine, but 6th gen (dc, ps2, gamecube) will depend on what game you’re running and may require tweaking the settings. ps3 is right out, I’m afraid.

Like I said, I mainly run older stuff, so double check what I’m saying if 5th and 6th gen games are important to you. I don’t really mess with those.

Haui,
@Haui@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

Thank you very much! I will definitely check it out. 5th gen would be awesome but 6th gen is very much optional. :)

SweetMylk, w Thinking of getting a retro gaming machine.

“Emulators & ROMs” part of megathread. Think it’s not worth to buy something for the roms when you can donwload them. Why not get something modern like a steamdeck or ayaneo for a true handheld experience?

Haui,
@Haui@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

Thank you! I will check it out.

The main reason is because I dont have 400 bucks (much less 1000) to burn on something nice to have atm. I could absolutely use one of my two beefy computers if need be but I figured I‘d ask what other people do.

SweetMylk,

If you an android phone you can use that too with a cheap bluetooth controller.

Sadly I dont but thank you very much got your suggestion!

Are you using a VPN? Your ISP may be blocking them.

spiritedpause,

I’m in the US, and as far as I know, ISPs only block websites if the federal government mandates it, in which case all ISPs would have to block it.

ArcaneSlime,

Not necessarily, they can block stuff if they want and some don’t like torrenting. Typically they just limit your speeds and send ineffective letters rather than block the site though, so it would still be weird.

I personally shove Transmission into Docker:

Make sure your mullvad config is called wg0.conf in ./config.

FrostyCaveman,

I do this except with github.com/qdm12/gluetun

(which apparently also can be used as a k8s sidecar container, am gonna try this soon as well)

christophski,

I’m trying this and it seems to be running. If I run curl 127.0.0.1:9091 I get a 403 which is expected but if I try to access the same from another computer on the network then the connection times out, any idea what could be the cause?

coaxil,

Oh yes, got your password :p

kingorgg,

Flyswat,

newIdentity, w How to route transmission through Mullvad?

I use UFW

Oisteink, w How to route transmission through Mullvad?

You might want your program and the vpn interface to be in a separate namespace? Somewhat opposite this: www.wireguard.com/netns/#the-new-namespace-soluti

You don’t want all traffic routed, you want only this one app. More info here: linuxhint.com/use-linux-network-namespace/

Moonrise2473, w How to route transmission through Mullvad?
newIdentity,

Mullvad is using WireGuard though

jws_shadotak, w How to route transmission through Mullvad?

I highly recommend moving that to a docker or podman setup. Gluetun is the go-to for VPN traffic. Set up a little container and you can link other containers to it to route all their traffic through.

GregoryTheGreat,

The best way I’ve found.

ColdWater, w How to get into private trackers
@ColdWater@lemmy.ca avatar

That’s the best part, you can’t

IDeserveToBeLoved,

You absolutely can. A good portion of popular trackers have periodicall open signup events. Torrentleech has fairly often open signups. It’s big so it isn’t that easy to build up your ratio when you’re a drop in an ocean, but when you do it can open doors for some more prestigious trackers, although TL should be enough in 99% of cases if you aren’t into some (less popular) niche content. Watch r/opensignups on reddit if it’s still alive and soon enough you’ll be on too many trackers.

notepass,

I think /r/opensignups closed after the blackout

toxictenement,
@toxictenement@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Theres r/trackersignups and the telegram channel r/opensignups migrated to of the same name.

notepass,

Thanks for the info!
I just checked trackersignups and found something spicy :)

It seems like r/opensignups telegram channel is just a bot posting the contents of /r/opensignups to it. So it is dead as well.

Yeah no way, the 90s were something like 10 years ago and… wait now we’re in…
Ohh… Ohh no…

ipkpjersi, w How to get into private trackers

Trackers with open sign-ups are a good place to get started, also trackers with application forms are good for starting out too. If you have friends who are into private trackers and they know you are trustworthy and they have invites, that’s another way.
