Ubuntu, I was drawn in with the 3D cube and the ability to play games. The only game I had compatible then was TF2. So I left.

Back to it full time now, almost all games work, and on Mint

Mine is just Polydryer. Keep the box low humidity keep the filament low humidity.

Need more testing to see how well this works though since swapping filament in these boxes is inefficient and the beads quickly get used before you need to reset them.

Only do this if you have money to burn, or you are doing 3d printing as a business and at scale

It's PETG and I've moved to a very wet environment. Stringing and popping and a big issue here. My last place though was a lot dryer and didn't need this solution.

They are, Polydry box

Yup, the humidity on it is better but could be dryer.

Fantastic game soundtracks are the ones which I actually go out of my way to acquire. Chrono Trigger, PixelJunkMonsters Deluxe, SimCity 3000, and Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair.

In my view Physical games are digital game in containers that we've yet to figure out to open. Digital games almost always have a DRM on top of it, and rarely can be used outside of their designated environment. My GameBoy, and PSP games have had a very long shelf life thanks to emulation and the various methods to back them up.

Agreed on the "whole game needs to be on disc". Was the reason I never bought Reignited Trilogy on Switch physically. No point since it was basically a digital game anyways.

I have a bit more nuances on that. Some games are Steam or console only, so what I do there is get them deeeply discounted so that if I was to loose them the hit isn't much. Otherwise GOG like digital services, or physical all the way.

The other way I look at it is for systems like the Switch or 3DS, where once it's cracked open. The game has a very high chance at being emulated easily with wider compatibility than it would otherwise.
