Fonzie!

Not to play the devil’s advocate, but with compiled languages you can just install the language, “run” your script and it’ll work, if not the language will catch undeclared variables for you, and more. With interpreted languages you need to not only install the language but also third party tools for these fairly Barovia things.

I know Wine, even better Wine-GE, but they’re not Proton qua performance.

I like custom types and them being able to follow custom interfaces; it makes for great type safety that almost no other language can guarantee!

What I’m saying is I’m learning Rust.

I’m not sure if you’re reading my messages but I’m saying I’m not sure how to do Proton outside of Lutris and Steam. And that CLI outside of a launcher sounds more convenient, but gave Lutris instructions for someone running a game not from Steam.

Hm? It wasn’t very click-and-play on Bazzite before, and areweanticheatyet.com listed it as broken.

I see it’s updated to Running (though not Supported)

I’ll have to try this weekend, it seemed fun!

For me, yes. But this is all using hands-holding Windows-like UIs, please realise that the recent-ish influx of Linux gamers understand this much, much better than terminals.

Although, I’m not sure how to install Proton as a CLI package on Mint, for instance. apt doesn’t list it, but Steam and Lutris do install it internally…

Esc > :x

You’re just shy from describing Bazzite

It’s got:

• Steam pre-installed
• trustworthy (?) Flatpak packages for just about everything, even encourages it
• desktop environment tailored to Windows users (KDE, really)
• auto-install and configure graphics drivers for AMD (Mesa) and Nvidia
• configurable automatic updates and system backup (although I think you still have to click the notification for flatpak updates)
• choice between anything for default anything during setup
• included in Steam Deck compatibility testing (actually in not sure but they do offer Steam Deck builds)

The reason why I can’t try Marvel Rivals with friends.

Fuck kernel-level software from commercial companies, though!

ran through proton

See, this is after where most gaming folks hop off.

In all fairness, if you just run Lutris (pre-installed on Bazzite), log into GOG from there and install and run the game through their wizard, it also “just works”.
That might be easier for most.

Mmmmerde!

Ooh that’s a good one! And quite concise by Colville’s standards /j

I need to get me my hands on The Elusive Shift, as well!

Totally Spy Konsi

Don’t really think that works but ok.

I mean, if your monitor or TV is 1080p, why should you waste so much more storage to little-to-no visible improvement?

Do come back and link it when you can!

This is about making preservation a larger issue, that is to include “legal” preservation.

Also they don’t need any info from you.

I’m surprised by South Korea not using Korean, and slightly surprised by Japan not using Japanese.

Same for me trying to figure out why Italy would go with Portuguese.
