Yeah, even the “difficult” distributions tend to just be a matter of following instructions to get a working installation. Gentoo was a massive PITA to maintain though. Chances are I was missing some knowledge that would’ve simplified things, but I spent way too much time on maintenance for the system to actually be useful. Arch has been much kinder.

The launcher wasn’t cracked. It’s a cross-platform open source launcher that works quite well under linux. The game itself was cracked, meaning they were trying to play without having purchased it.

Including the two right feet as hands?

A lot of the modern packs have quests. It could be considered finished when you complete all of those, which I haven’t. Now I’m playing DW20 which doesn’t have quests, so I can avoid all those judgemental looks I was giving myself.

I find it difficult to play vanilla Minecraft anymore. Every now and then my niece will ask if I’ll play with her, so I’ll boot up my switch. Other than that, modded is the way to go. I started shortly after Iskall85 started his single-player Vault Hunters series. Have yet to “finish” any pack, but they’re fun!

One of the grocery stores in my town also had video rental. When they started carrying DVDs, they put the “Be kind, Rewind” stickers on the cases.

It’d probably be less work to install LFS at that point.

Kodi is cross-platform, so it doesn’t have to run on Linux.

looks like a PS5 interface

I’ve never actually seen the PS5 interface, but this part of the comment is particularly amusing since Kodi started off as XBMC (XBox Media Center).

making Lemmy looking real nice

I just checked it out. It looks like new Reddit.

The old version, based on Debian and made with Steam Machines in mind, was abandoned. SteamOS 3, based on Arch and made with the Deck in mind, is still meant to have an official generic release at some point afaik.

Huh, only place I’ve seen/heard it is in Vault Hunters which definitely isn’t made by Gen Z. That may be where they got it though. Hard to say as I’ve never heard anybody use it irl.

How is it a wholesome comment?

GTA V which doesn’t work at all

YMMV. Works out of the box on the deck and I don’t remember having any problems with it on arch.

Lol you’re welcome. We all have those things that bother us more than they reasonably should. That’s one of mine.

old english from the mideval times

That would be Middle English. This is Old English.

Before my PC died, my Index was working under Arch FWIW. Can’t speak for other hardware though

Starfield runs just fine with proton, at least on the deck.

That’s what I do on a desktop, sure. Isn’t an option on mobile though.

It’s a string that your browser sends to websites with information about the browser itself and your OS. Sometimes that info will be used to block functionality.

Years ago I tried to use TurboTax from Firefox on Ubuntu. It wouldn’t work because only Internet Explorer on Windows was supported. I changed the user agent to make it appear as though I was using a supported setup, and it worked flawlessly.

I haven’t actually needed to use one in a long time, but an extension search for “user agent switcher” should turn up something that can do it.

It’s an audio-only ad platform where they fill unsold time with most of a song or just people talking.
