The JoeyJr is also a great tool for this. It can dump and write GB carts but specially detects when you plug in a GB camera and gives you a folder of image files.
And .ain which was even better but now seems to be half lost to time (no Wikipedia, just a few links repeating the same fragments of info like http://justsolve.archiveteam.org/wiki/AIN)
Lowest-of-low effort AI slop image (how long would it have taken to screenshot a Google Slide?) and the user's post history tells me everything I need to know.
I remain haunted by the new score that Gabriel Thibaudeau created for the 2010 restoration of Metropolis. I saw it performed live in Toronto and I'm still desperate to hear it again someday, but there's never been any home media release (official or unofficial) so far as I know.
I recommend The Crowd (1928) [1] by King Vidor. Incredible cinematography and an emotional story about regular people that was unusual for the time. Absolutely blew me away.
In Windows it's still faster than anything else if you've copied an image to clipboard to open irfanview -> paste -> save, or to do a quick crop or whatever.
I've got a ThinkPad T430 that came from a local shop selling off-lease laptops a few years ago, and it's been great as a dedicated Linux laptop. Even a T490 from 2019 is only CAD$300 and change off of Amazon these days, which is wild if you don't need the latest and greatest.
This looks like a great option to keep around for using with the Quest headset. Meta's VR controllers don't have a d-pad, which is awful when you want to play Tetris Effect in VR.
I've used the slightly larger 8BitDo Lite SE gamepad for that in the past, but a smaller unit with a nice d-pad would be nice.
(Assuming that it does in fact work with the Quest. Now I'm not sure..)
