What is PortProton doing that could increase performance? At the end of the day, won't this tool just set up a wineprefix for your game and then launch it using wine/proton, just like other tools of this nature?

Where can you find an N100 for $60 with 4GB of memory?

EDIT: Nvm, found the comment replying to this mentioning Radxa boards. Just found them the other day. Very interested.

Aren't most CPU's and chipsets proprietary? Not to mention all of the firmware blobs they require? What are some affordable, non-proprietary options?

They are for sure talking about the ARM servers from Oracle. You get 24gb of memory and 4 cpu cores that you can carve into virtual machines.

Issue is that the free stock is very limited, and there have been some claims of people having their free service resources reclaimed by Oracle.

Still, if you can get one, it is probably the best you can get for free.

Doesn't Kate have its own theme options?

As a user of Debian and Arch: I don't know how to feel

Thanks for the link! I was trying to figure out the Lunduke complaints (I don't know if I've ever heard of this guy before). This video did a solid job of catching me up.

You're the one who replied "any google hardware" though.

You didn't mention rsync, which I think is usually considered standard. I'd look into that.

If you need to remember something for the next time you go out, put your shoes somewhere odd. When you go to leave, you'll remember you moved them, which will remind you why you moved them.

EAC Seems broken on Arch? (lemmy.simpl.website)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

I recently installed BattleBit Remastered on Steam (uses EAC). Upon trying to run the game, I only get as far as a screen telling me to ensure EAC is installed. I tried their "repair EAC" option in steam, and there was no change (a terminal opens, blinks, and closes again). I tried a system update to see if that would help, but no dice.

Now, when I try to launch Apex Legends (a game which I play all the time), I see EAC loading extremely slowly, then it goes away, but the game never launches (though Steam still shows the title as running).

Is anyone else having issues right now (with an up to date system)? Has anyone else experienced this before?

Edit: Decided to format my OS drive and move to Fedora. Using the same steam library, both games are now working. Clearly some package ended up misconfigured, but I have no idea what or why.
