That wall looks like a Portal wall texture

You can create ad-hoc wireless networks in desktop mode, which should enable you to achieve that. Then, if your emulator supports netplay, with the two SDs connected to each other, you should be able to play by connecting to localhost

That’s in theory, in practice, we tried with a friend once, and his SD would just not connect to the ad-hoc network I had setup on mine

Sable always had a tendency to make the Deck heat up like crazy and burn through battery in no time, but otherwise it’s a great game to play in bed 😁

I wanted to give Lineage a try, but I went traveling last July and installing a new ROM abroad really didn’t sound like a good idea, despite the EOL on my current ROM 😅

It’s really a shame that the /e/ ROMs don’t at least integrate the system patches from upstream, since they are indeed based on Lineage (just checked now), and Lineage still supports the Pixel 3a

I guess it might have to do with upkeeping their fork of the Lineage software, or their own launcher being incompatible with modern versions of Lineage

Had been on Calyx for a while, must say /e/ was definitely a better experience, haven’t tried anything else besides that

I think /e/ is forked from either Graphene or Lineage (not sure which one) but comes with a full FOSS suite of replacement apps that integrate with the Murena online services (can also use a regular Nextcloud instance)

It’a neat and tightly integrated out-of-the-box, worked really well on the 3a, but most apps sorta fell behind in terms of features in the long run compared to traditional FOSS apps, might also be due to lack of updates since the device is considered EOL

I’m looking into getting a Fairphone with iodéOS next, since my 3a doesn’t recieve updates anymore and the phone’s been agonizing from all the traveling haha

Running /e/OS on a Pixel 3a, only downside is thart system updates have stopped being distributed a while back. Otherwise very satisfied with the experience.
