I think the one I have is the BP60NB10 LG Slim Portable. It looks like prices are at around $100-$130 for it online now though, I think they are not made anymore. I got mine up at a local computer store a long time ago.

I strongly recommend this webpage: https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=19634

There are some external/portable USB blu ray drives that work with MakeMKV and cost like $30.

I have set up WireGuard manually running on a home server. It’s not that hard to set up IMO but that definitely depends on your experience level.

Other than that I’d second Tailscale which is similar but easier to set up

In smash bros, turn the launch multiplier all the way up and turn on sudden death mode so everyone starts at 300%.

Go to one of a few levels (the underground area of Hyrule Temple works, the underground area of Skyworld is better, but it’s best if you make a custom stage)

Getting hit once will send you bouncing around the screen! You only ever die if you get unlucky. It’s hilarious, and we call it “Pinball Mode”. I’ve made a couple custom stages to improve on the experience.

It’s the most plug-and-play Linux has ever been from my experience.

Occasionally I will prefer Steam to take advantage of Steam matchmaking

What’s the difference?

I think for the Mac icons here I like the 2001 variant.

Unless something has changed, Amazon Music only offers low quality mp3 downloads, and sometimes even includes audio watermarks.

It peaked in 2006

This is why I use CloudFlare. They block the worst and cache for me to reduce the load of the rest. It’s not 100% but it does help.

I add non-Steam games to Steam just so I can use Steam Input for controller rebinding

Computer science was all Linux at my college. Xubuntu, specifically.

Your ISP can’t tell who you are contacting if you are using a VPN, but websites will track you by other means.

Thankfully the Linux community is pretty active and just about everything is supported alreadh

Analogue Pocket also supports 3rd party emulator cores, so you can very easily play ROMs or even other consoles.

Ps5 controller is like $70, the Steam Controller has more features than that, and the OG Steam Controller was pretty expensive. I’d be shocked if it’s under $100. I’m expecting it in the $150-$200 range. But we’ll see, I’d love to be proven wrong

One of the biggest Minecraft servers I know of had basically no anti-cheat and just relied on user reports and bans. And it was extremely effective. It was a PvP based server, and I only encountered cheaters in like 0.1% of games, and even then they were usually banned before the match finished.

The ones that modify the world’s blocks often cause a lot of lag unfortunately.
