oh yep thank you, got mixed up there

oh I think I’ve come across that yeah. not a fan of them personally, so not something that I would notice lol

mhm

all of the fancy features that other terminals provide, I get with Tmux, so any emulator for me. I like transparent themes and that’s easy to set up in Alacritty, so that’s what I usually get

rutracker is semi private, registrations are always open and no invites needed

thats not kerning, that’s justification ☝️🤓️

kerning refers to the spacing between individual letters in the words, and justification is a method of typograghic alignment where space between words is stretched to make text flush with both left and right margins

you should!

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far as I’ve heard, Mint can be iffy fhen it comes to games, mostly because they use an outdated kernel.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

OpenRC cuz im a basic bitch hahahah

oh yea that’s the big thing I struggled with here hahaha

the monitor brightness is at 1% and I had no way to put a light anywhere nearby cuz of the room layout, and overhead light only seemed to make things worse

but thanks for the explanation! next time I’m just gonna choose a better lit room hahah

also here’s one with fetch actually in focus cuz someone will probably ask lol

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

Yea, it takes some messing around to get working, and sometimes it wont work at all. It does get progressively better with each update though, so its worth trying again once every so often :v

Ive been using Photoshop CC6 on my Arch over wine for about 2 years nowand it runs mostly great. Some occasional jank, especially when resizing windows or undocking toolbars, but other than that it works! I think you can even get the later versions working, and its only the installer thats bricked. If you ever wanna try again, I’ve found best performance running it in Bottles with Soda fork of wine, and the portable version of CC6 from rutracker, the Xpuct release I believe
