For me it depends on what I’m looking for in a Pokemon game.

Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald is just a good all rounder, though some of its battle mechanics are outdated.

Diamond/Pearl/Platinum is the best if exploration is your Jam

Black/White/Black2/White2 is the best for combat and battle mechanics

Heart Gold and Soul Sliver if you want an excellent post game

Honestly I’ve use it, it’s good but uses far my resources that it should.

KOreader is the FOSS alternative and while its interface sucks. Its reader is excellent.

Hummm, lots of good suggestions. Honestly what I would do is get something cheap that works. Then learn what your needs are.

3D Printers are a tool, and like all tools there are cheap ones which break in 30 seconds if you are actually using them. And tools which will last a lifetime but cost a fortune.

As someone who started with the (at the time) budget printer, the MonoPrice Select Mini. My suggestions are are follows.

200mm x 200mm x 200mm heated bed. This is common for printers who are clones of the i3 and isn’t hard to get cheap.

Doesn’t require proprietary software or can use open source software. Back in the day some printers would only take gcode from their proprietary slicer software. Flashforge comes to mind. But just check if what you are buying has a profile (even community made) for you slicer. Prusa and Cura are the 2 popular ones everything else is based on.

Automatic bed levelling. Whether it’s magnets like a MK3 or a touch sensor like the ender 3. So long as it can mesh bed level out of the box it’s fine. So long have I tried to dial in my printer only for it to need to be dialled in again.

Finally check Amazon or other sites for replacement parts. This is a machine and parts wear down. You don’t need to replace everything, but belts hot end assemblies, print beds and sensors are a going to break and need replacing.

For my recommendation is for a ender 3 s1 or the elegoo Neptune as they meet my spec and look fine. Though triple check with reviews

When it comes to playing DS/3DS games the best hardware I found that can do it well is an iPad.. or a 3DS.

No one is really focusing on making a good stylus for tablets and the iPad works well for DS games. And it has enough power to play and do everything else… except 3DS since Apple didn’t permit JIT.

3DS on the other hand is easy to mod, easy to run archived games and does everything nicely. Sure it takes time to setup, but it’s worth it.

I like it because when I have an issue, the ones for Ubuntu and Debian also work.

Depends on region… depends on what you want to read… depends on you e-reader.

For example a kobo or a kindle will only read from kobo and amazon respectively.

Kobo and Google Play Books is my first stop to shop, since it supports Adobe Digital Editions, along with their own apps.

Amazon is my second stop. Not because I like them, I’m I. The same boat as you. But believe it or not their encryption is based off of your devices serial number. And you can DeDRM your Kindle books very easily.

Then it’s from publishers directly if they let you, like J-Novel Club is pricy but they offer drm free books.

My last option is obscure, but cool if you are looking for a deal. Humble Bundle is where I go for textbooks and older series. Only issue is they sell only in Bundles, and you’d get a lot of stuff you may not necessarily want. But the deals are crazy if you don’t want to pirate.

Finally depending on value and how much I feel the book is worth, I may sail the high seas.

Ditto, but I don't exercise as much as they do so I assume its longevity is based off of how much you sweat.

Don't know how to specifically, but usually the GBAtemp website is a good place to start.

This forum looks like it has relevant info about the VC save formatting for N64 saves.

Would love to print in ABS, but every time I tried the parts always warped. PETG is nicer and has very rarely warped on me.

Didn't get it on Steam but it is deck compatible (and on steam), The Outer Worlds. Nice no nonsense Fallout Stylus RPG, without the Bethesda jank
