  • My favourite is LaunchBox. It’s a frontend that generally manages the emulators for you. Pulls metadata like boxart and release dates from a database. Free, but with a premium upgrade.

    It handles everything for you, but you can also customize it to your liking!

    It downloads emulators like RetroArch, Dolphin, PCSX2, etc. so you don’t have to even worry about finding each one. But if you find a different emulator you’d rather use for something, you tell LaunchBox to use that. Super flexible!

    The premium upgrade (which isn’t necessary to make use of any of these features) goes on sale exactly once per year: Black Friday, which is coming soon. So if anyone else wants to support the project, now’s the time. But even if you don’t have money to spare, I highly recommend checking it out!













  • I wonder what other artefacts like that we have.

    I’m sure some streamers use “Tune in”, which refers to radio dialing.

    “Dashboard” means a whole lot of things, but originally meant a board on a carriage that prevents mud from being “dashed” up to the passengers by horses (I think).

    Uh…“meal” is literally a kind of grain that most people probably don’t eat regularly at all, let alone 3x a day.
