I am not sure what do you mean. I use fedora with Nvidia (it’s a different repo to activate) and my main rig is for gaming… No problem what so ever. Using Fedora since 37, what a smooth ride.

Also, who knows if Netlify didn’t provoque the ddos to make free loaners pay?

Nice! Looking quite good.

That sample text file, you can save it in the “Template” folder in your home folder, and then you can create a new file from that template with the right click menu > new entry :)

My first computer was an Oric-1, and I typed a little bit of BASIC on it, and even managed to save to a cassette tape! (never managed to reload what I saved though lol) This first computer was traded to me by a friend for I don’t remember what, but it made me interrested into computers for sure!

Next, with that same friend, I traded again and got an Atari 520 STE, that’s where the story really begins! I was about 14 at the time. Since then, I stopped leaving my room, and started to read a 500+ pages book about GFA basic. I have so good memories about the things I could do with that computer, even to nowadays standards, it’s the best computer ever! I remember I had a 30Mb hard drive in SCSI, and some accessories. It’s still at my parent’s house. I miss it.

Good on you to not have to maintain legacy code (15years+). Also, as a comparison, with JAVA, I have a legacy JAVA 1.5 to maintain, as far as you have the runtime, that stuff works, and that’s it. This is how it should be.

Serious Answer: PHP in itself is not that bad, despite some discussable decisions in function naming and arguments order to name a few. The biggest problem, is that it has a settings file describing how it works (php.ini) and that sh*t will bite you in the rear when you move apps from server to server, where all the libs are different etc… PHP never works out of the box when moving something on a new server, that is the worst part of the language.

Meanwhile in APL, you just 20 50 60 90, 10

Great list, but a couple could be added:

• btop (process/resouces monitor, highly customizable)
• lnav (log navigator, grouping folder of files in one display, search/filter etc…)

dum, dum, dum…another one bite the dust…

Perl made me laugh more that I want to admint…

are you sure you don’t mean the opposite? Because on trackpads, it’s like on touch screen and should go in the same direction no? (I mean, from when I used a MAC, I couldn’t use natural scrolling with a mouse, but loved it with the trackpad…)

yet, the auto updates will restart your computer no matter how many programs were left open…

set margin:auto to your div, and call it a day, no need of flex/grid whatever…

lol, MD5 is NOT a secure password algorithm…

What I like with Linux:

• no restart behing my back to force install updates when I have pending work
• no bloat
• customizable (win11 forcing to having windows of same app groupped grinds my gears!)

Though, it’s not perfect (I guess I have slight hardware issues on my end), I feel way more relaxed (really) when using Linux than Windows.

recently, I use btop in replacement of htop, really easy to use and pretty to look at.

Finally, did you manage to run the game?

I don’t exactly remember, but I know that I had the launcher running for the first times, and in it, I disabled it so the game launches right away.

One thing I had in a different game, was a edge process (certainly to fetch news or something) that failed and that was the process I had to kill so I could see the launcher.
I use btop in the terminal to show processes and I filter with the approximate name of the process I want.
If you don’t know the executable name, you can filter steam and it’ll show steam and the sub-processes that are running.
From there, you can simply select edgeUpdate ( I think that was that) or DirectXInstall (both used to cause me problem when launching games for the first time) and use the kill button and see if the game launches.

I think I recall having issues with Proton Experimental.
I think I am using the last stable Proton 8.something.
Tried the last GE-Proton as well but also had some issues.

Another thing, I think during the first launch, some Directx installs did fail or took long and I killed the processes.
Though, the game always started fine for me, and I disabled the Launcher at the first occasion, now all is good.

Also, I had some other issues with Steam lately, and I tried the Beta version of the client, all my issues are fixed, you could try that as well.
