I use rsync for this purpose and the only notable bottleneck is my download speed, fwiw.

My first thought when seeing but before reading is “OP should replace the screen”. But I can respect you wanting to keep it original.
Great work, looks nice!
- Comment on US to impose tariffs on Chinese EVs next week 1 month ago:
I wonder how repairable and maintainable these will be as compared to EV’s from other markets and if replacement batteries will be available as the original ones reach the end of their useful life.
If these concerns end up being valid, and the tariffs are large enough that these cars aren’t priced particularly competively, that’d be enough for this EV consumer to pass it up for his next vehicle. Will be interested to see how it plays out.

Speaking as an aethist, can confirm.
- Comment on Windows 10 reaches 70% market share as Windows 11 keeps declining 2 months ago:
“Peak Windows” is a fun one to ponder. I’d probably pick XP for fairly high reliability and fairly low bloat. Or 2000 if taking business oriented versions in to consideration.

You should check protondb and see if your games of choice are supported, if you’ve not done so already.
I completely jumped ship from Windows the better part of a year ago now and haven’t encountered a single game that didn’t run, at the least, reasonably well. And usually just fine OOB. Though ymmv of course.
- Comment on FOSS scanner app surpasses Microsoft for usability 2 months ago:
Re: cell phone scanning. I’ve seen these camera based book scanners popping up recently. I’ve never used one so I can’t comment on how good they are, but when I read your workflow it occured to me it was worth mentioning. Here’s a search result I arbitrarily picked listing some.
- Comment on Should I get an NES, Master System; or an Atari 7800? 3 months ago:
MiSTer is a great option for high accuracy and zero/low latancy emulation. And besides being able to use original controllers you can also drive an analog display with an analog IO board, if that’s desirable to you.
If you want real hardware, this isn’t it. And I can understand wanting the real hardware. But for a nearly perfect recreation of the experience without the headaches of maintaining aging hardware, MiSTer does the job.
Analog Pocket looks cool too. But wanted to nerd out on the MiSTer specifically.

NES (my nostalgia speaking)
