  • If I manually “install” the game somewhere (and by that I mean manually unpack the two zst packages from AUR’s PKBUILD download sources), it refuses to start and returns a whole bunch of erors in terminal. If I let trizen decide where to install it - it starts OK. I know the game isn’t large and I can keep it on the root partition, but it’s about principles, not about size. How can I trust something that FORCES ME to do this, instead of that? Needless to say which corporation such a behavior reminds me of.


  • Aaaand you can’t install it elsewhere outside the root partition… It has to be on / , otherwise it won’t start. “Perfect”… I don’t like putting any games on the root partition, so… moving on to other FOSS games. It would have been great if everything were put together in one dir, similar to discord’s way: /opt/Discord and that’s it. With such a path you can symlink Discord to wherever you want. But you can’t do that with this game.

    This was Endeavor OS for me last night on the laptop:

    cp /etc/resolv.conf /tmp/calamares-root-krk32ou8/etc/ </i> finished with exit code 1.

    I’m never wasting my time with that thing ever again. I don’t like Mint but at least it installs without stupid errors.









  • I’m using Copilot to help with bash scripting when I get stuck with the script. I’m aware they’ll be able to see all of my scripts but: • I’m willing to share all of my scripts with anyone who wants them, so I’m OK with it, if MS can see them. They’re all FOSS literally and figuratively. • Copilot is incredibly helpful with scripts, much more helpful than the 10 year old kid named ChatGPT. When I ask Copilot to explain a certain part of the script, it explains it in an understandable way, unlike quite a few other AIs.




  • I’ve seen the same response so many times when I report something that I simply gave up reporting anything. In previous years I’ve seen the videos of a genocidal pastor from USA who was openly calling for white Americans to kill gays and black people. When I reported the video, guess what answer I got… But when I uploaded a picture of my favorite actress (you can see her on my profile pic) from the neck and above, Suckerberg decided it was “nudity and sexual activity” and banned me for 3 days. After the 5th or 6th request to review the image, it was finally determined it was OK but… they didn’t lift the ban on my account. So I was banned for literally doing nothing wrong.
