I made a post about the shader I’m using on the Steam Deck with an album of screenshots hosted outside of Lemmy upload (on Lensdump) and seems to be better, I think Lemmy is doing something to the image with compression.

If you only care about the comparison shots:
To each their own. The ones with the shader are closer to what it looked like on a CRT (minus some extra bloom and color bleed if using composite or RF).

If you only care about the comparison shots:
I grabbed some more comparisons, this time from my tablet using the CRT-Consumer shader. Notice stuff like the bloom from the window and shading around the curtains, the kitchen appliances and plants, general shading around dithered stuff like the tent, and the trees on the world map.
Also these are best viewed on a larger screen, it’s hard to see the difference on a phone.
Yeah, it looks a bit different on my Steam deck and TV, maybe because they’re OLED displays. It doesn’t come across as dramatic as it is in person on the screenshot. In person there’s more bloom and higher contrast, the characters look more… planted in the world, I guess is the best way to explain it.
Like, if you look at the rounded parts of the big robot there’s a bit more depth and contrast that give it more rounding and image depth in shadows, but again, the screenshot isn’t doing the effect justice.
Also, the still image doesn’t help because the shader also impacts how the game looks in motion.
I took the screenshots on my Steam Deck, but hadn’t actually seen them until I uploaded here.
I don’t have nostalgia for the game, tried it a few years ago but bounced off. Not sure why, just wasn’t in the mood for a HRPG at the time I guess.
I recently gave it another go, been playing it on my Steam Deck and it’s been great. I’m a few hours into it in the future currently and I think it’ll stick this time, it’s great.
Only thing is the game feels like it was really made with CRT behavior in mind. Like the game has some amazing shading and almost 3D depth to a lot of the art but without CRT shaders you don’t see it at all. If you play the Steam version, reshade goes a long way. I’m using a combination of CRT-frutbuhn, EasymodeCRT, and vibrance and it looks amazing.
Edit: quick comparison with default look vs. with shaders:
Well shit. You’re right, I’m mixing up grub rescue and emergency mode. Yeah, you would need a USB rescue disk to fix this most likely.
My bad, I’ll update the original comment to avoid confusion.
It’s only needed is the OS isn’t booting. Running a repair every boot is not needed.
Not true, it’s grub rescue, appears after grub if the OS can’t boot. I’ve encountered this countless times at work over the years in customer environments.
Yeah, that’s the other 10%. 😂
Doing dd wrong or rm -rf on / aren’t gonna be salvaged this way, but if it’s a bad disk sector or somehow corrupted system file the above command will sort it out. You wouldn’t believe how many customers VMs I’ve had to use that on in the past when they were in a panic. It’s a 2 minute fix in most cases.
It’s kind of the Linux equivalent to Windows sfc/scannow, chkdsk, and dism restorehealth in one.
Important Edit
The information below applies to emergency mode boot when grub is intact but OS isn’t booting. It doesn’t apply to grub rescue. Sorry about that folks, I screwed up here and don’t wanna misinform.

Protip: If you see this error, press”e” on grub boot to edit your commands and add the following to the end of the kernel line in grub:
fsck.repair=yes
Then boot.
Fixes the issue like 90% of the time.
“Who is behind it? Who is funding it? Is there a link with Democrat-leaning NGOs [non-governmental organizations]?” Greene wrote Wednesday on X, hinting at some kind of nefarious conspiracy.
Have you considering the 2 million or so federal workers who were fired thanks to DOGE with Musks face plastered all over it? Pretty big axe to grind there.
Fucking jackasses.
Nah, this isn’t true. I’m a Coloradan and registered independent. I generally vote blue, and am very socially liberal and a big believer in safety nets and social programs, providing a floor, and I’m a proponent for the idea of a national basic income, universal healthcare, and free or subsidized education. I just don’t feel that the Democrats have actually represented me or my interests in a very long time. I was originally a registered democrat, but have been a registered independent now for well over a decade.
If we had an actual progressive party that would be something, but this milquetoast middle-of-the-road Democratic party we have today is essentially the Republican party of my youth. The dems are very conservative these days, and only left-seeming because the Republicans have continually shifted toward insane alt-right extremism since the mid/late 2000s.
Not going to be playing “honest question” with you, since it’s obviously not honest, and you’re not open to changing your viewpoint. No, sometimes it’s about critical care in life threatening situations, often involving pregnancies that cannot be brought to term anyway. Women are literally dying from preventable issues due to pregnancy complications. And that’s not even getting into the concept of women’s care for horrible situations like rape.
If you can’t see the issue here, you’re part of the problem. I knew that already, but thanks for confirming.
What am I missing?
You’re missing the fact that currently in many states in the US, a Tesla has more civil rights than a woman, and it’s bullshit.
Also ignoring the removal of inclusion programs, and a number of other things wrong with the US in recent past that you would almost certainly be aware of unless you’re living in a cave in the wilderness with no internet connection. Which I doubt, since you’re posting here.
That’s great, until you want to switch devices while still keeping your progress.
I knew it was gonna be Audiobookshelf as soon as I saw the headline. Great software. My wife has all her books hosted on it on our NAS, and it barely takes any resources. I have it hosted alongside Plex in a VM on a teeny tiny Ryzen 5500u Mini-PC.
Edit - I’m even more amused that I have almost the same configuration as the article author, Proxmox server hosting the guest, just mine’s an Ubuntu 24.04 server VM instead of LXC. That little server hosts Plex, Audiobookshelf, Lyrion, and AssetUPnP, pretty much handles all my media stuff, plus a separate Home Assistant VM, and has resources to spare.
FTFY.
