Touched Fuzzy, Got Dizzy
I've got my pi3 not doing anything in particular at the moment, but had an idea to see if I could use it as a synthesizer or to turn say, an arcade stick into a drum pad or midi controller or something similar. Anyone have any suggestions on where to look into software for that sort of thing?

Thinking about using my old 3 that’s not doing anything as one of those network wide ad destroyer things. Do they mess up video/music streaming or games or hue lights? I don’t want to have to troubleshoot every little thing I use my internet for.

How good are pi's as a dedicated retroarch machine? Is there any noticeable lag or emulator issues? And what systems do they currently have a hard time emulating?

A lot of people use them but anytime I’ve tried even like snes games are noticeably glitchy or laggy feeling. Might not be an issue for you but I wouldn’t really recommend it as more than a novelty, which is totally fine.
