We just added support for Doom and Amstract CPC in today's patch release! It's been available upstream for a while now so we just had to enable it. There's also a new update for EmulatorJS coming soon (currectly in beta testing), and I've been thinking of releasing a custom image with the nightly/beta build for testing...

Not a plan but we wrote this up a while back as an exploration into which systems/platforms we can target. We're really hoping the community continues to step up with more plugins and integrations so we can focus on the core service.

I've been working on integrating RomM into Lutris (https://lutris.net/) for a while, but it's not ready yet since I haven't had time to finish it. Not as a plugin but directly in the main Lutris repo: https://github.com/gantoine/lutris/tree/romm-game-service

It would allow you to store your games on the server, sync the list in Lutris, and install them when you want to play them. I'd like to get a working POC to demo to the Lutris team soon-ish. Oh and if anyone sees this and would like to help get us there, contributions are always welcome!

Cool idea, would be a fun POC or weekend project. The team behind EmulatorJS (https://emulatorjs.org/) has made it stupid easy to inject the player into a static website (or multiple players with iframes), with a preloaded game and custom settings.

I love your vision and enthusiasm! You seem to have a solid setup already and a great use case for a future version of RomM.

At it's core it's a system for organizing and displaying your collection of retro games (ROMs). Instead of navigating through folders or manually moving games from a hard drive to whatever system you want to play on, you can load them into RomM, navigate to the app and download them from the browser.

You can share it with your friends so they can access your library, use the plugins to download games directly onto some platforms (without a browser), or play older systems in the browser for a quick session.

At some point we'd like to handle save file sync between devices so you can stop playing on one device and pick up where you left off on another!

Ideally you would use both, and the community would build integrations that allow, say, EmuDeck to pull games from the server onto your Steam Deck and sync saves back to the server.

I usually play on Windows with Playnite (https://playnite.link/), and the plugin (https://github.com/rommapp/playnite-plugin) allows Playnite to pull and display the list of games for each system, after which I can install the ones I want to play onto my PC.

I got the watch this happen in real time while scrutineering at one of the polling stations. It game me a lot more confidence on the safety of our elections, which is a blessing in this day and age.

Hey I'm one of the devs, let me know if you run into any issues getting setup!

If you're not seeing the stars in Firefox (the background is all black), turn off "Enhanced Tracking Protection".

All tech is political, and to deny that is a privilege not afforded to most.

This is exactly the reason why I disabled it when I upgraded to my current M1, and I'm relieved to hear I'm not the only one experiencing this.

Sorry I don't see any instructions to run this on Docker on that page. Do you publish an image to the Docker hub?

> It does, every 4 lane road we have changed to a 2 land road with cycle lanes has done that here.

Which is, while some may disagree, an overall positive change. Road widening has shown time and again to have little impact on congestion. If you widen roads, more people will choose to drive; if you narrow them, more will choose alternative modes of transit.

> It doesn't go where people want to go any time they want to go there.

Mainly due to chronic underfunding and low ridership. The vicious cycle of "funding drops -> service quality drops -> ridership numbers drop -> funding drops -> ...".

> Periodically people are assaulted using it

On the topic of violence, many more injuries and deaths are attributable to passenger vehicles then all other forms of transit combined. Not to mention the long term health effect of exhaust on air quality with a city.

> Public transport sucks, it is unsurprising that people won't give up their car-centric lifestyle for it.

Unfortunately I'm one of them, and the reason why I bought a car in 2018 and haven't taken transit in town since.

Having volunteered on the campaign of a pro-transit, pro-cycling candidate in a recent mayoral election in Canada, I've heard this excuse more then a handful of times when speaking with (a certain segment of) the public. When pressed to elaborate, I found that many of them are simply unwilling to give up their car-centric life style and believe that attempts to improve alternative public transit will come at the cost of their commute, or ability to get around by car. They see public transit as an inferior form of transportation, and cycling as a hobby to pursue exclusively on sunny days.
