There are a few JeOS distros out there, usually built around something like Kodi or Jellyfin. I've had good experiences with LibreELEC, which (through Kodi) can do audio and video files, broadcast TV, live streams, VOD channels, and even game emulators if the hardware can handle them. It works well on small devices.

When choosing hardware, beware of the fractional frame rate issue: Lots of TV content has a video frame rate that's a little bit off from the whole numbers usually expected by computers, like 30000/1001 = 29.97002997 fps instead of 30 fps. Support for these frame rates is missing from a lot of systems-on-chip, so small media boxes that use them will have to fake it by dropping or duplicating frames every so often. The result is not smooth.

All the Raspberry Pi models that I've checked do support fractional frame rates, so that would be a pretty safe hardware choice.

In other words, it's the same effect as when you make separate identities to share with different contacts on any messaging service. SimpleX has adopted that as the normal way to to operate.

Okay, Henny Penny. Now that we see your judgment of major threats is worthless (and your motivations entirely profit-driven self-interest) we know that we should ignore you when you scream that the sky is falling.

If you want to sell more anime, improve your service or lower your price.

I hope we as a society will start teaching new parents that they shouldn't rely on child development advice from a single person, especially one with limited knowledge and experience in that area. Raising humans is complicated, and as with many things, the pitfalls are often invisible unless you've run into them before.

I assume the detective constable meant well when offering guidance, but it's important to consider the source when evaluating guidance, and be a little skeptical when it comes from someone whose qualifications and incentives don't directly apply.

Worth mentioning just in case you're not aware: versioning is present not just on the protocol spec, but on individual rooms. That ought to ease any semantics changes that might be needed.

Tux is my copilot, and never tries to be a back-seat driver.

Ah, so they just built the middleware, not a UI. That's not what launcher typically means in this space, but fair enough. Thanks for clearing it up.

Anyone have screenshots?

Cats have a side designated as "up"?

It's middleware for game launchers like Lutris, but specifically for Wine games. It uses GloriousEggroll's custom Proton builds instead of stand-alone Wine/DXVK/etc.

Note that GloriousEggroll more or less discontinued his custom Wine builds, and has been encouraging people to use his Proton builds via this tool instead. It might make things easier or harder, depending on your needs and workflow. I expect it will be easier for casual Linux users when combined with a GUI.

Wildermyth is somewhere between a tactical combat game and a role-playing game, and quite good.

Solasta: Crown of the Magister has caught my attention, but I haven't played it yet.

Dragon Age: Origins is good, and although not on sale, is old enough that full price is not bad. (I don't know if the EULA is tolerable, though; I don't think it was there when I played it.)

I think this could use some elaboration on what you mean by half dead.
