gardenappl's Linux and low-spec-ish gaming

Playing video games on a low-spec-ish machine and posting some of my thoughts.

'Low-spec-ish', as in, a used but modern laptop from maybe a few years ago. Not intended to play video games, but it ain't exactly a decade-old ThinkPad either, for better or worse.

It dual-boots Arch Linux and Windows 10 (used laptop came with a key...).

I don't think this particular gemlog is interesting enough to really "publish" it anywhere, so if you somehow found it and are reading this sentence, congratulations!

Latest entries

Note that article date != date of finishing the game. There's often a 1-2 month delay between playing a game and writing about it here, because I'm lazy.

Posts are written for the forum in BBCode and then converted to Gemtext. New entries are edited to work better with Gemini, however the old, "archived" posts have been converted fully automatically, so they may be a bit ugly as a result.
