I went to check it and... believe it or not, but it works now. With Joy Cons and with the 8bitdo controller as well. So I have no idea what did went wrong this morning. I was doing it multiple times, from world 3 and 4 and nothing. Weird!

Thanks!

save states

If it really doesn't work here (which really would be strange), then yeah, that's what I'm gonna use. Using it already.

It would be just nice, to have the "built-in" way of save states of some kind. It's half-way cheating that way, since they put this feature inside the game and not the system you run on it.

And also, as you mentioned it too, using save states also saves the extra life counts. So soon enough, probably there will be a save where I don't have any lifes and every death would mean game over.

Minor things. But yeah. Will try the A + START thing with Joy Cons, and if that won't work either, I just use save states and maybe save at each world.

My smile would be more natural, if I could finish the game (for the first time, from the beginning to the end) the intended way, and I think using A + START is still fine.

I haven't checked with the Joy Cons, but will do later the day, thanks for the input.

Even if that brings you back to the beginning of the world, it's still a big help :)

well, that's true.

Thing is, there's no real software KVM (or rather KM) solution for Wayland. Barrier (and the others) works only on X11.

It's a minor thing, but unfortunately major enough for me to be unable to switch to Wayland at all.

Completely dropping X11 sounds a nightmare in my case. I'm not against dropping X11, if Wayland proves to be a better alternative. But not with "holes" like this. :c

unfortunately, radontop doesn't support relatively old cards. I get this error. (And the github page states that >R600 will work)

Unknown Radeon card. <= R500 won't work, new cards might.

Also, my AMD CPU has a integrated GPU too, radeontop just doesn't know about it.

The GPU works on my system tho, just radeontop doesn't detect/support them. Oh well.

for newcomers, maybe this is the best combo. Debian stable with KDE Plasma.

that's weird, too, but no

Ken (as the name) - ta (with a hard T and A as in catapult) - ur (with an u like in Vonnegut's name)

tho I'm from europe speaking a weird ass language

and even then, for me at least, the dialog that pops up is broken and lot of times the "Allow" button literally does nothing

lol

okay, you caught me, my .world profile was supposed to be my non-furry lemmy account.

With Termux on Android, it's possible to install Debian in a proot environment.

More about this here: https://github.com/termux/proot-distro

I guess using this envirinment, it's possible to set up your server to your needs.

One thing I don't know is how to autostart Termux at boot, but there must be a way, "worst-case" a Tasker routine can do it. Also, another thing to considerate with this setup is Android's memory management and to detect if your proot distro gets killed. But then again, maybe Tasker is good for that, too.

Good thing with this proot-distro thing is that it's really easy and straightforward to set up, and basically you have a full Linux environment in your pocket. There are limitations, of course.

As for installing/flashing full Debian on an Android phone, let's say it's not possible. Your closest best bet would be Ubuntu Touch on a supported device.

I'm the other way around. I switched to Debian on my main around a year ago now and I'm like "oh, this game works, and this game works too, oh and that works as well, wow!". Honestly, any game I threw at Debian, it just... worked. Granted, I don't play very recent games and most of them either single player or does not have any serious anti cheat measures. Even VR works with ALVR and Steam VR, wirelessly on my (or rather my homie's, just borrowed) Quest 2.

And not just games, a lot of Windows software just works with Wine.

So, before the change, I thought I need or use Windows exclusive software, and I did, but all of them are now have decent alternatives. Maybe except for Notepad++. (I use Kate and KWrite, but... I really don't like those softwares, but they get the job done the same way np++ did)

So, I'm really surprised how well this past 1 year went without any issue.

But that's kinda valid that if something doesn't run, then people won't change. You are talking about people who doesn't care libre/FOSS software and all that jazz, they won't change if it's just simply worse.

In this case, this should be the only acceptable explanation.

it's 2025 and having a freaking CTRL key on soft keyboards is still a luxury and obscure thing.

Why? Give us the CTRL key, and that's that.

Well, to be frank, I don't really like that style. But wouldn't matter; new Mother!

I would love a new Mother game to be honest...

or another Super Lucky's Tale, with a bit more challange. That game was a real surprise, how nice of a platformer it is, also really really great music.

I settled with Plasma. It has its fair share of issues, mostly minor things compared to coming from Windows and its environment. But you really can customize it the way you want and it's relatively comfortable, so I'm fine with it. I still miss the old KDE3, but I'm not that hardcore to use Trinity. Not even sure how's Trinity nowadays.

Gnome 3 is just not my world, at all... at least, for desktop. I kinda use it on my htpc if I need an environment. That, or Xfce. I can imagine on a palmtop pc or other portable device that runs Linux, either with or without a touchscreen Gnome could be a pretty decent choice. Also, I'm sure I could/would get used to it if there's nothing else, but there are other options so I'm not going to sit down and get to (re)know Gnome, tho it's not like I'm against it.
