Can you mount them? If so what does that look like?
Fan of Linux, modifying firmwares, and open source software. Mostly here to kill time and contribute to Lemmy’s growth.
If you want to play a game together over XLinkKai shoot me a message. I have an original Xbox, PS2, and a PS3 I can use.

I really think it comes down to the individual. I personally think that Aldous Huxley’s book Brave New World was likely derived at least partially from the book We by Russian author Yevgeny Zamyatin but both Aldous Huxley and my 10th grade English teacher would disagree. I don’t think it’s wrong to take someone else’s work and add upon it in a way you view beneficial. I view it as a natural evolution if anything and if it gives someone something to enjoy or makes the creative processes a little easier I’m all for it.
Yeah in the same remixing a song is considered original
Do you feel like you ever got over the initial setup period? A lot of what you are describing is what I encounter after a fresh install but I don’t typically have any issues after a little bit of tweaking.
What laptop is it?
Have you checked out this page?
I’ve never heard of it. What separates from Project Cartographer and MCC?
It doesn’t really matter. You could try a long term support release and you don’t have to worry as much about constantly updating to prevent stuff from breaking
Garuda has a gaming edition you might want to look at if you decide on a rolling release.
Yeah I get that. I wasn’t suggesting Invidious. I was saying NewPipe is a good option because you can port your subscriptions to other platforms.
You don’t need to start fresh every time you start using an open source alternative.
That said it would work in OP’s situation because it’s pretty much platform agnostic and there are available apps to make it easier to use on the Play Store. I still think NewPipe is the way to go though because it’s designed for Android.
Yeah. As long as you don’t make any alterations to the VM like sharing drives for example. If you had enough storage you could also make snapshots on occasion so you have a back up in the event of malware but you wouldn’t likely get malware unless you are opening the files on that VM
Probably the Audiobook Bay
Worth noting you can export your subscriptions on NewPipe so you can bring them to other platforms.
On PC you can you use Individious
Check ProtonDB and the PCGamingWiki.
If Proton gives it a good rating or recommends certain fixes try installing the game and running it without them then move onto the fixes.
If it’s an older or obscure game try the PCGamingWiki. A lot of fixes for Windows games work on Linux. For example game that rely on Games For Windows Live (which stopped working years ago) typically require a tweak or two. Normally it’s a file you just drop into the games directory. Lots of installer scripts on Lutris typically utilize a no-CD fix either because they don’t play well with modern operating systems or they know most people don’t have a CD drive.
If none of that works try searching the game with the keywords Linux and Reddit. /r/Linux_Gaming is a fantastic community. They don’t allow piracy but many of the fixes and “Does X game work?” post translate over.
This goes for pretty much all repackers and DRM-free games like I’ve said.
Plenty of games are on GOG and Itch.io and they don’t have DRM.
Keep in mind with some installers such as Fit-Girl you might need to do things like limit the RAM or tweak the settings just for the installer
You should also create a new working directory for each game so you don’t accidentally delete everything by having multiple games installed into one directory
You use Lutris. You can select the executable and run whatever installer then just select the game’s executable and make tweaks as required.
Lots of tweaks can be found by viewing the Lutris install script.
The whole process is like installing the GOG version of a game. You don’t typically use Proton for non Steam games
If you have troubles there’s always EndeavorOS
I would say pursuing a dream isn’t a bad thing as long as your end goal isn’t wealth or fame. If you learn something along the way then it’s likely worth it.
Is Railway Hosting what people are using for hosting Lemmy instances?
I don’t do much. Most of them are friends from when I was a kid but in a weird way I worry they would judge me in a disappointed kind of way with how my life is going.
Most of them have kids, spouses, or careers at this point so I don’t know if they would be willing or able to make the time
Should be similar on most Linux distros.
