I've been using Niri with Xwayland-satellite lately, and it works as a charm. it works out of the box, and you simply run it in background, and launch your X programs with DISPLAY=:0

far as I've heard, Mint can be iffy fhen it comes to games, mostly because they use an outdated kernel. I can also recommend something like Endeavor if the gamer in question has any knack for tech, or Nobara, which is made specifically for gaming by GloriousEgg, maintainer of ProtonGE

she did a little while ago yeah! It's currently pretty actively ongoing

I really really loved everything about the first season, but like others said, s2 doesn't hit anywhere near. its best redeeming quality is just the OP

with this being the final season, does it mean Houseki no Kuni is at last somewhere on the horizon?

there is something very satisfying about running pacman -Syu at the end of the day and watching it update the repos, give you a neat list of packages to be upgraded, then see them downloading over all your threads with that little chomp chomp pacman animation, disappearing one by one, or a bunch at once, and then at the end it runs the hooks and you see that [1/23] fill up all the way to [23/23] in the span of a minute...

It's like popping bubble wrap, but you have 8 hands and 8 bubble sheets and never try to pop the tame bubble twice

There is also the lesser known, but quintessential space game: Space Rangers (GOG). It takes a little figuring out, since it's a Russian game from 2003 (and a successor of the 1999 game) and they kind of tend to be obtuse like that; but, its genuinely the coolest space sandbox I've played. It's kind of a space Mount and Blade: you can fight aliems, you can trade, you can be a mercenary, or a pirate, and the game accomodates for all of that. At whim, it switches between the core X4-esque gameplay to an RTS, or to a text quest, some of which are basically an entire game of their own. The English translation is a little spotty, but it's good enough.

Mandalore made a video about it some time ago.

It's also got a ton of mods! Though not all of them have translations.

I've definitely seen both opinions, but mostly leaning negative in my experience. Might just be confirmation bias though lol

Basically lul

Likely cuz Brody is widely considered to be obnoxious and sensationalist, and his videos range from being only surface level to just straight up wrong

Op said thei got an old notebook, trying to run a VM on it would probably be a miserable experience. Depends on the exact model of course, but with low specs and potentially lower hardware support for VMs, its not likely to be a good solution.

dont bother correcting apostrophes as its not a grammatical mistake, simply lazy typing. well never stop doing that no matter how much yall tell us not to, cuz it simply aint all that much of a problem
