Ah alright. Yeah those are going to get pricier.
Are you talking about something you hook up to the TV? A raspberry pi is a great option but you need to provide your own games. It’s just going to be the most flexible for playing whatever game you want. There are a couple distros for it that are easy to use once setup (retropi, recalbox). An RPi 3 or newer will do anything lighter than N64.

There are all white cave bugs.

You can’t just install an arbitrary Linux distro on an Android tablet.
If you want to run Linux, buy something like the Juno or Librem tablets.
raptir@lemdro.idto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is there a point to making an account on multiple Lemmy servers?English2·1 year agoFor the first point… kind of but not really. Having an account on a second small instance still gives you the backup, and if one of the two goes down you can create an account on another instance as a new backup.
For the defederation, nah. I like lemdro.id because they haven’t really defederated from anyone except for spam instances, and they’re small enough that no one has targeted them for defederation.
raptir@lemdro.idto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is there a point to making an account on multiple Lemmy servers?English3·1 year agoTwo main reasons…
- As a backup in case your home instance goes down.
- If there are instances your home instance is defederated from and the other instance is not.
That’s about it.
Someone at BuzzFeed is reading our Lemmy conversations:
https://www.buzzfeed.com/laurengarafano/the-hunger-games-characters-ai-vs-the-movies
I think there are two big reasons…
- During the big Reddit exodus, a lot of people were recommending lemmy.world.
- It’s a general purpose instance. People tend to flock to those rather than more specific topical instances.

You’ll need packman if you need restricted codecs for video.
Update with
zypper dup
as a general rule.
It’s not a minimum before a check is issued. If you do not have a certain number of annual listeners on a track you never get paid out for it. If you had 100 tracks that were each streamed by 999 listeners who each streamed them 100 times per year every year, Spotify will no longer pay you a dime, ever.
I think a key point of confusion is in the way they presented it. They talk about how many songs have “less than 1000 listens” and that those would only make $3, but then their new policy is to deny payment for “less than 1000 listeners.” If each of those listeners streamed the song once per month, you’re talking closer to $40 than $3, and that’s on a per song basis.
The newest part, which is Spotify refusing to payout what small artists are owed if they don’t hit a certain streaming threshold, is 100% on Spotify.
For alternatives, Tidal allegedly pays better and at least doesn’t do this. Qobuz is not owned by any big tech company.
I assume SSH is not exposed to the internet by default on openSUSE? I have not used SSH on my install so should I be safe if I just update?
