also literally wrote proton
It’s getting weird how often I find myself saying this… But Valve mostly took already existing software and built a wrapper around it, integrated into their platform. I love what they did, but the credit for literally writing it goes to all the people who spent years building wine and related software.
You should probably start by washing your hands though, and maybe touching less grass
Getting a bit ahead of yourself, we’re only on 3070 so far!
Ah, seems you’re partially correct - steam has a command for downloading a specific depot version. You need to know the specific ID to download, and notably games can use multiple depots to form the game files, but I thought you needed to use something like SteamCMD or DepotDownloader for that.
I’m still upholding the fact that it’s not a “proper” feature, while I appreciate having those kind of utilities put in the user’s control, this isn’t something most people could figure out themselves.
It’s not like they have to create the compatibility layers from scratch; Valve did it for them.
I do just want to point out, Valve didn’t do that - Proton is mostly just pre-existing software that they packaged together into an officially supported feature. I love that they did it, and having it in the biggest PC game platform presumably did wonders for Linux gaming, but it was most certainly not made from scratch.
That’s not an official/proper feature on steam, there’s nothing in the interface to select an older version, right? Just the beta system that lets developers have multiple branches available, which is often used to keep a limited number of previous versions available.
Hey, speak for me too
…Brave is just chromium by techbros, right?
Archlinux is good if you accept that you’ll need to spend time to learn it, and that those moments might be frequent and unavoidable early on. Definitely wouldn’t recommend it to somebody who needs their computer to work, since a new user with no experience might find themselves breaking their boot images and spending hours trying to figure out how to fix their computer not booting.
So yeah, I think that’s an important caveat: if you don’t know Linux already, and you can’t afford to spend time learning and fixing your system, don’t use Arch.
One could argue that “based” covers this kind of inspiration 😉

I don’t think arch does much to make commandline easier to use it understand - instead I’d say it aims to teach you how to use it, because it might be easier than you realize, but importantly it tries to tell you why. Instead of just giving you the command to run, the wiki explains various details of software, and the manual installation process tells you which components you need without forcing a specific choice. As a result, hopefully after using arch you’ll know how your system works, how to tweak it, and how to fix issues - not necessarily by knowing how to fix each individual issue, but by understanding what parts of your system are responsible and where to look.
Since your issue is specifically wanting GUI, I’d recommend installing something like pufferpanel or pterodactyl/pelican, which give you a browser interface for running game servers. Pterodactyl/pelican is more popular, has more features and supports more games, while pufferpanel is simpler/lighter and easier to make your own templates for.
Eh, just from the picture it looks like a normal margherita. If there’s something wrong, I don’t think it’s coming across on the picture. Are you maybe thinking of, like, specific regional styles, like using fresh wet mozz in splotches?
That said, I can also imagine a big pizza chain probably doesn’t shine with its plain pizza, but if I’m already ordering from a big chain, I see nothing wrong with eating that!
If the cheese is mozzarella, like it should be on a pizza, then that’s a margherita
I… I don’t eat domino’s, but you mean something like Quattro Formaggi, right?
Right?
If you mean margherita… A good margherita is still really tasty, putting the quality of the dough, sauce and cheese on display
Please don’t fuck everyone who criticizes your food choices
While it might not fit the vibe (and you might already know it), I feel like Songs of Conquest needs to be mentioned, being a Heroes spinoff. It’s an interesting twist on the formula, with lovely graphics, some things streamlined and some interesting new mechanics (like the essences for spellcasting).
I’m pretty sure it is a wrapper in the way it looks up game-specific information to apply specific tweaks to how the game is ran and how the prefix is set up… But it is also true that it does also include a modified version of wine, so the terminology is difficult to pin down.
That said, I don’t mean it in a disingenuous way, at least I don’t think it is such. I do believe valve is often attributed excessive credit for proton’s creation, but I don’t think they did anything wrong, much less “just nab it”. Open-source is open-source, and I’d imagine people who put work towards making wine viable are happy that Valve brought it to the mainstream.
