Una batallita con #Lemuroid, un frontend simple y bonito para núcleos de Libretro (emulación).
En #Android14 hay un "bug" con el explorador de archivos que ya no permite por las buenas ni las malas sin ser usuario root modificar Android/Data/, que es el único sitio donde esa app guarda las partidas.
La solución del dev: incluir en la versión de Google Play sincronización con Google Drive sin una opción de exportación e importación manual.
MERCI aux devs' de #Lemuroid, cet émulateur sur mobile est une perle !!!
À propos de Lemuroid, Tolkien aurait pu écrire "Un émulateur pour les gouverner tous" 🤭
Seul reproche, on peut accélérer la vitesse du jeu, mais pas la ralentir. Donc pas de mode lent. Sniff, tellement utile sur certain vieux jeu GameBoy !
If you play emulated games on your android, or an android based device I strongly recommend you use Lemuroid. So far it has the best user experience I've enjoyed on an emulator front end. It's what retroarch which it could be. You point it at a rom folder and it just picks them up, there's no messing around with cores or controller setup. The on screen controls match the system and are intuitive. Really really well done.
I never would’ve imagined myself enjoying #mobile#games (specifically on #android) but lately I’ve spent a lot of time on #codm and I enjoyed playing #genshin and #roblox with my son in the past. He’s also introduced me to #twitch and #discord. I don’t care for the latter but the former has been really fun to watch people play #retro games i used to love. Also #lemuroid let’s me play loads of ROMs and I can use my favorite controllers with my phone if I like.
#grapheneos has been an accidental success for me because I’m able to run a few more things than I could on #lineageos due to the play services sandboxing. All of that plus my recent usage of a couple popular social media sites has increased my phone usage for better or worse. I’m a little more exposed to #google and #meta but I still feel like I have a bit of privacy. Just a half decade ago I would’ve never done any of this.
Finding a middle ground between convenience and privacy or security is a tough thing that requires a lot of thought on your threat model. We need the extremes because they drive options and expose problems that expand our freedom of choice. We also have to make concessions in our daily lives (such as my work requirement of play services so I can receive critical alerts).
I used to be so hard-line about a lot of things, computing was just one facet of that. I’ve learned to be more flexible in recent history and I’m appreciative of my new outlook on things.
