Ah, the cowboy method. Gotcha.

I mean…the cartoon has basically all kinds of coffee prep excepting french press, aeropress and the various ways to make cold brew. Are you talking about instant coffee? Because that’s definitely windows…

Oh…you know 😏

Corporations aren’t people

Don’t they just slap a custom configured dosbox in the folder and point to it for launch? Could just strip out dosbox and have the thing.

Fair enough

Yeah, I wasn’t able to get through xiii, too linear. XII is nice, mostly linear with some bounty hunting stuff to keep it fresh.

Been playing FFXII international, been quite enjoying it so far.

Currently I still find it too much of a hastle to correctly run Winblows applications, almost always relying on Lutris, Steams proton or Bottles to do the work for me.

That’s…uhhh… that’s why they were made? So that your average Joe Schmoe, like myself and you, doesn’t have to muddle through trying to get wine set exactly right so that the windows program functions. It sounds like you’re complaining about the solution to the problem.
I guess there could be work done to just make it so if you double click on a .exe install file in just boots whatever has the best install preset, or give you a pop up with options for lutris/proton/bottles.

By turning the US government and economy into a nuke, and collapsing the whole country… probably.

Don’t forget, 13 years on and multiple (re-)releases on various platforms, and there’s still bugs that are only fixed by mods.

Thanks Bethesda…

JD Vance? Is that you?

It’s really unfair. The older we get, the faster time seems to pass, and the less we have to spare. If we’re lucky, maybe we can get 15 or 20 years at the end to enjoy our labour…most of us will be too banged up from the grind to enjoy it.

✊🤜🤛 the struggle is real fam

I also love to fiddle, but the ADHD steers the ship a lot, and so I sometimes end up bricking my install… I’d say it’s a thing I’m working on, but you seem nice…and I’d hate to lie to you.

Or had a lot of time, and have streamlined their setup to the point that they don’t spend nearly any time on the fiddly bits, because they now have next to no time.

Depends on what medium it’s on. Some are far better than others, so as a generalisation I said what I said. A majority of folk these days, when they think digital media storage, think solid state. Which is, in fact, not suited for long term storage. A piece of paper stored correctly is going to outlast a usb drive, SD card or SSD.

The possibilities are endless.

I gotta get offline now. This morning hasn’t been too great for my mental health.
