There's a set of Nadia buttons that are blind-wrapped. I do not know where these are being sold, but they've been popping up on Mercari and YAJ. I got this set of Nadia wearing her white island dress.

Hi, I installed Bazzite on a Dell Optiplex minicomputer to make it my Steam/multimedia computer. The internal WiFi on this hand-me-down is a bit wonky since it did not have a proper antenna installed. I disabled this in the BIOS and bought a TP-Link USB WiFi dongle. It works, but after I shut down it no longer works. Every time I boot it up, I have to unplug the USB dongle, plug it back in, and then it recognizes my network. So the thing works, but I have to unplug it and then replug it in every time for it to work. Is this just an unfortunate problem with Bazzite being an "immutable" OS? I do not have this problem leaving my Logitech joypad plugged in at all times, as you can see in this picture.

I have experience with other Linux distros, but I'm still new to Bazzite. Actually, now that I've closed the window I took this screenshot of, I cannot find out how I accessed it. I don't know how I got into it. I just want it to default to this USB dongle every time it boots up. Thanks.

The promise of EmuDeck is to add some games into my Steam Library, so that they'd show up just like any other Steam Game. Sounds nice. All I wanted to do was to add a few Neo Geo shmups like Blazing Star and Pulstar, both of which I'd gladly purchase through the Steam Store if they were available, but I didn't expect the Spanish Inquisition. I just wanted the Neo Geo emulator, not butthundred other emulators I can already play through my RetroPie device. I made the mistake of choosing the "easy" option, but even then that won't work.

It promises that I can add games and have them put into my Steam library just like any other game. NOPE. It says it'll add the EmulationStation to the library. NOPE. I was able to MANUALLY add ES as a non-steam game. So I tried running it and it pulled up the ES menu. Then the roms won't load because of dependencies.And when the game doesn't load, it spits me into a RetroArch core load screen. No way to get out of it, so I have to hard kill it. I may as well uninstall this trash and just use RetroPie which is much easier to use.

I'm happy to get to watch Nadia on Sunday mornings! Last week was episode 4 with the submarine battle, and this week is the highly-emotional episode 5. So this is a 4K remaster, but honestly I cannot tell the difference between this and the bluray. I'd have to see them side-by-side somehow but even then I don't really care because I'm not picky and it's why I'm not scrambling to buy a 4K bluray player. I have a friend who swears he can hear the superior sound quality of an ATRAC music file on a minidisc over a standard MP3, but I can't.

Actually, it starts at around 8:50am. There are no commercials. It's the submarine battle episode. I am a happy owner of the bluray, which is such a fantastic improvement over my ADVision DVD box sets with its dark, washed out colors. The difference was immediately striking. As for this 4k broadcast, I honestly cannot tell the difference between this and the regular HD bluray picture quality. Still, it's cool to see Nadia on TV!
