  • SherpaOnnx TTS for Android. There are many different voices to pick from that sound very life like and are totally worth using with GPS apps like CoMaps.

    Also, just found out about Medicat recently but haven’t used it yet. It looks fantastic though: Medicat is a toolkit that helps compile a selection of the latest computer diagnostic and recovery tools into an easy to use toolkit.

    Ventoy is a software you put on a USB stick to make it so you can load as many bootable ISOs as you want on it at the same time and still use the leftover space for normal file storage.









  • Raspberry Pis are not difficult to tinker with. Don’t let your intimidation stop you from trying to assembly one the way you want. Just don’t be walking around on a carpet before touching it and it’ll be okay. The circuit boards can slip out of your hand and land on the table and be just fine.

    Get a RPi5 4gb, a case with a fan that connects with the standard fan pinout (for simplicity. No special scripts needed), and put Batocera on it. It’s a very easy to use retro gaming software.

    The cool thing about a small SBC like a RPi is that you can try different operating systems out without loosing your old data by simply swapping the micro SD card with a different thing, then just go back and it’ll boot like nothing ever changed. You’ll learn a lot and not be intimidated anymore.

    If you go this route you’re welcome to DM me for help setting it up.






  • Benchmarks online tend to show very minimal performance difference between distros. The main difference with gaming distros will be ease of installation of gaming stuff like gamemode, etc. Some distros also have a Steam Picture like mode if you prefer that. Besides the “gaming” stuff, the distros are otherwise just a normal Linux experience so yes you can install a VM software like normal.

    Bazzite and CachyOS are two popular suggestions. Bazzite is a Fedora atomic spin for gaming and has specific images setup for your hardware. CachyOS is arch based and has optimized packages for your specific hardware
