“When you do things right, people won’t be sure you’ve done anything at all.”

If it’s a son, then probably not.

I saw an 85" Samsung TV for $1000 at walmart today.

Kinda crazy (stupid) how people spend that much on a fucking phone.

No problem.

The hardest part is getting a controller working. I’m not sure what OS you have, but getting a bluetooth controller working properly on Linux can be hit or miss. If you’re on Windows with a USB controller or one with a dongle, it should be much easier. I’m sorry I can’t give direct advice because it will depend on your setup.

Otherwise, just download emulators for the consoles you want, download the games for free at vimm.net, then you’re off to the races. You may have to change some settings, but it shouldn’t be too difficult if you’re willing to look at them and experiment a bit as needed.

You can download the MEGAsync program and go through the process of syncing the folders that hold game saves to an online backup. It’s pretty intuitive to follow the program. You will need to look up where each emulator holds its save data though, because it’s not really standardized.

To get you started, these are some emulators that I recommend with large libraries and stable support:

-PCSX2 for PS2

-Dolphin for Gamecube

-Torzu for Switch

-mGBA for Gameboy Advance

-Duckstation for PS1

-PPSSPP for PSP

There are of course others for different consoles, and even multiple emulators for the same console. Don’t get too hung up on doing things perfectly the first time. Try to get some experience and you’ll see what works for you and what doesn’t.

Start small and work your way up.

I’m not a developer, but I’m guessing a good start would be to try installing it on an old phone if you have one.

See what problems you come across, try to learn what’s going on, share your knowledge with others.

I think I’ve solved the problem of computer gaming.

It’s emulating on a gaming laptop with save data automatically backed up to MEGA.

We should normalize just sending them money directly through crypto.

Why have more middlemen than we need? It it because we’re idiots getting taken for a ride?

I know what I’ll put my money on, every time.

How is catbox hosted?

If they’re renting VPS hardware, then they’re getting scammed.

They should set up self hosting with their own hardware and a VPN. It will cut down on the recurring costs significantly.

Don’t pay for others’ stupidity, if you can avoid it.

Advertising is ruining the internet.

Copyright and patent laws shouldn’t even exist.

I don’t think you even begin to understand what it’s like to have billions of people on the earth.

No matter what we do, people will still slip through the cracks and this litter will get out.

Sorry, it should be up again now.

I’ve updated the post with the instructions. I don’t really plan on hosting this for a long period of time, at least not in this state.

I hope some people have gotten some use out of it.

Thanks.

It’s my understanding that https provides encryption for the data sent between you and the server. If you’re not sending any sensitive data, then the encryption shouldn’t be necessary.

Don’t get me wrong, encryption is great even when it isn’t necessary. For my demonstration purposes though, I chose not to include it.

I also believe it’s possible to set up HTTPS encryption without a domain name, but it might result in that “we can’t verify the authenticity of this website” warning in web browsers due to using a self-signed certificate.
