As a minor nit: Many of these are not actually source ports but reverse engineering efforts (e.g OpenMW). It would be nice to have a tag to highlight that is the case for accuracy purposes.
In my opinion gaining accuracy for a single engine is way harder than for general emulation since one does not have a giant corpus that can be used for validation, just the game as is. I‘ve seen a few approaches that try to go the extra mile like the bit identical Super Mario 64 decompilation, or Dungeon Master where the developer recorded inputs on actual hardware and checked that the play through reaches the end of the game provided the same inputs.
Not to take away from the tremendous task those reverse engineering efforts go through, I am very grateful to have classic games running on modern hardware with enhancements and modding support!
One might say MacOS users use Safari most of the time, but sadly it is not possible to get a pixel perfect (or at least not wildly off) canvas if a user changes the zoom settings:
This is a decision made for accessibility reasons on Apples part, but I can’t find the quote on that anymore.
Alternative mechanisms to size the internal resolution of a canvas correctly are also not supported on Safari.
Thanks for the quick response, I agree if it would be that easy, sadly I’ve had friends that were turned away by customs for that exact reasons (staying months while they visited last time) and got recommended against even trying to enter by an attorney since the I130 in flight might be used by US customs against me.
I don’t think you or anyone can assure me that if I am currently trying to enter the country for a visit I might not be turned away by customs (worst case scenario being barred from entering for years).
I don’t know how you can plan your existence around random chance of US customs.
Please correct me if I’m wrong with that assessment.
To come highlight again, this has been a huge surprise to my wife’s family who resides on both sides of the political aisle.
They assumed it would be bad, but not quite how bad.
Hi I am not really asking for specific advice (since I know our situation is already not working out to nice…), I just want to highlight how absurd the state of affair is and maybe get some input on that.
My wife is a US citizen and we currently both live in Germany and planed to move at the and of this year. We’ve filed a I130 in November last year and got an initial estimate of it being done right now (7 Months not to bad). But looking further into it it takes at least 15 Months to process this stage of immigration, worst case scenario it could’ve been 50 months (4 year!!!)
This wouldn’t all be to bad but to add insult to injury it looks like I’m effectively barred from entering the US during this period and US customs can even bar me for 5 years from entering the country if I try.
I just feel incredibly sad about the fact that the way to go if you have a sweetheart in the US seems to be to illegally marry on a Tourist entry into the country…
The earliest the US would even respond to our inquiries is in 2024, which is frankly ridiculous.
There doesn’t seem to be any workarounds other than transferring on an L1 Visa between companies that are situated in Germany and the US, every other visa is single intend (i.e illegal if you plan to stay and the US gets to decided if you’re trying to do that)
I don’t understand what the US is scared of, taking their social benefits? Especially since 90% of the I130 are approved, there is no reason it takes that long or needs such rigorous vetting.
Peter if you know any better or disagree please let me know :(

I've done it twice and had a great experience, although in the 10X pricing range compared to recordcut.com.
I've used https://www.online-druck.biz/lp-cover.html for the sleeve, but I don't know if they ship internationally.
