  • … I don’t know if I’d call it sad, as much as kinda baffling. Vim was on every package manager list I’ve seen, under text editors… Big stylised letters, how does one miss that?

    I feel like it’s someone who only uses Linux specifically for (and because of) their work, and has probably never tinkered and casually browsed around in it.

    Yeah, I can see how that can be sad, like a person who doesn’t actually share your culture/hobby after all.












  • Honestly, because troubleshooting gets annoying for me when I want to play a game, I have made a brain-dead algorithm for how to play games on the deck, and it looks like this:

    1. Do I want to buy it on Steam? If not,

    2. Does it run in Windows? If yes, just download and install in Windows PC, and then (Warpinator) it into the deck. Add shortcut to steam, use latest stable proton. That’s it. You’re done.

    3. W-wait… It doesn’t run natively on Windows? (Old af games like Touhou 6). Just Bottles it, and finagle with the setup a bit, that’s gonna take some effort.

    As a general rule, proton is a beast, and I have stopped bothering with Linux native piracy entirely.
