Lutris can be pretty handy for many things…

I don’t have too much exp with these things, but I would suggest (as an IT support person) narrowing down and isolating problems into specifics, like:

• I need dot.net for x thing and I tried y thing and it didn’t work.

You’ll be able to get better answers. I’m pretty interested in the suggestions, my usual solution is ‘find something open source that is not as good but works.’

There should be an app or something for this…

I… actually can’t tell if you’re taking the piss or if that’s a real episode.

I have so many questions about the whales.

Tarballs are not built from source?

I have heard multiple times from different sources that building from git source instead of using tarballs invalidates this exploit, but I do not understand how. Is anyone able to explain that?

If malicious code is in the source, and therefore in the tarball, what’s the difference?

It’s true… far right dictators love this shit:

Apple will make you pay for anything apparently

Ah thanks, that’s my problem, it’s me.

Oh boy…

I wonder if I’m going to notice any better performance…

holy shit!!! I’m definitely doing that!

Just reconfigured /etc/makepkg.conf to use extra cores and tmpfs… I’ve been compiling on the SSD with one core for so long it’s embarrassing.

Toy Story 5

There’s a Toy Story 5?? I haven’t even seen the third one yet. Or any of the other ones you mentioned…

In three years, 90% of animated films are going to be generic crap churned out for a quick buck.

This is the dumbest thing I have read this year so far.

“Player uses built in functionality as intended and gets banned for a year.”

That’s what my taxes are for. I rarely pay more than $5 for medication, if anything. I also pay significantly less in taxes than US citizens and have less potholes in the roads.

As a side note, dealing with adding repos and keys and all that is something I will never miss from apt. I use Arch and installing things is usually as simple as… well let me check.

And it’s option 1. So easy. Type 1 and press enter and you’re done.

Can’t I just download a file and install it?

Yes, there are instructions on the page for that, the section is titled ‘Installing the app without the Mullvad repository’

Just adding to that, what required maintenance can you do on an EV?

I can take care of most of the basics like fluid and brake pad changes on my IC car. On an EV tyres are a given, but is there specialised maintenance work that I can’t do myself?

The answer is always ffmpeg
