Don’t remind me. I need a PVM to go with it. 😅 Although, I actually like the 240p composite video on the Trinitron TV, it looks exactly like it did back-in-the-day and indistiguishable from the real consoles’ composite output.

The Lakka image I’m using is well-tuned with noticably less lag than some Pi setups I’ve seen. Interested Pi owners can find it here.

I can’t find it, but someone has been collecting stats on input lag for many different USB gamepads/controllers as well.

I was shocked at how badly I was playing Symphony of the Night on a PS Vita TV with a DualShock 4… it turned out to be the input lag… of an real Sony controller on a real Sony console. Connect it by USB cable - noticable lag went away. 🤬

raises hand

As an owner of hundreds of Nintendo pieces from arcade to Switch… I’ve turned.

Original console or RPi3 with Lakka for classics on the Sony Trinitron, and GOG or Steam on Linux for anything new.

Lots of arcade games and other amusement machines made in the last twenty years run on desktop Linux.

Incredible Technologies games, Raw Thrills/Play Mechanix Big Buck Hunter Pro, Arachnid dartboards, and TouchTunes jukeboxes off the top of my head.

This trope is false; frogs will attempt to escape when the water gets unpleasantly hot. They don’t allow themselves to be boiled.

Just saying.

Does double tap and drag work?

Meaning: tap, lift, tap without lifting, drag.

My bad. Well, obviously Motorola has 14 configured and available for this device, so I don’t know what to tell you.

Luckily, my gov’t now forces providers to un-network-lock devices after a certain waiting period (60 days?), and the bootloader seems to be unlockable! I’m not feeling like a slave, just paying more for the phone than what I signed up for.

Edit: I’ll always trust Motorola over, say, Samsung, where the Galaxy S-whatever (US version) and the same name device (International version) even have a completely different processor!

I have a Verizon Razr+ 2023 (on an MVNO), and it’s now running Android 14.

Ask your service provider why they are holding back updates.

Edit: 14 fixed one of my annoying issues with this phone; the outer screen did not play nice with certain keyboards and would force close them (I like Unexpected Keyboard). Now you can choose different keyboards for each screen.

Thanks for replying, everyone! This project is temporarily on hold; downloading and sha256sum-ming some different isos led me to discover that my main system has a RAM issue. 🤦

I just learned to not trust motherboards’ automatic RAM voltage setting; only one of four sticks seems to be sensitive to the apparent undervoltage that it was running on.

Edit: I hope that whoever designed the style of RAM slot that has a latch on only one side stubs their toe every day for the rest of their life.
