The Cradle level in Thief 3 will forever and always be the scariest experience I’ve ever had in any video game, including horror games. It elevated an otherwise mediocre game to be a worthy entry besides the first two games.

Couldn’t have been me, I purged the last Windows machine from our household last week and the first thing my wife wanted to have installed was Steam.
That is absolutely not a slow laptop. If it takes a long time to boot there must be something wrong. I have a similar system that takes about ten seconds to boot.
Anyways, like others said, LVM with LUKS is the simplest. It uses your hardware to quickly decrypt the drive on boot. While it is running access to your data is protected by your login manager or lock screen.
Maybe you’re experiencing https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/10551#issuecomment-2305454689
Don’t have Lutris already running before starting the game, don’t use flatpak Lutris and don’t use gamescope. Basically make the way from Steam to the game as short as possible.
some interpret this to mean there is no free will.
Which is kinda stupid. Because even if my decisions come about through undetermined random quantum effects that is still a physical effect outside of my control and I still cannot really act of my own free will. Schopenhauer had already figured that out without the need for quantum physics. A person might do what they want but they cannot want what they want.
tldr: Free will is bullshit. Let’s watch some TV.
Stay away from the Thinkpad T580 with the Geforce MX150. It’s horribly throttled and can’t even run Quake 3 properly although it should actually be capable of running Doom 2016.
Might be the same with the T480.
That’s more or less what a virtual machine does. And I bet cheating programs do as well.
At it’s simplest you just start the programs with Wine. So when you have Wine installed you can just select to run an exe file with Wine. By itself it will install them to a hidden folder where a mock-Windows-folderstructure is created and add entries to your start-menu equivalent.
Most people use helper apps that add a separate mock-Windows environment for every program. Makes it easier to manage them, especially if one program needs different settings from another to work.
Bottles is such a helper for general programs. Heroic is mostly for GOG and Epic games. Lutris generally for games. And Steam uses it’s own Wine version Proton automatically for verified games and you can trivially configure it to automatically use it for every Windows game.
Look at https://protondb.com for games and https://appdb.winehq.org/ for general programs.
Installing OpenSUSE Tumbleweed on my wife’s laptop as we speak. Stupid thing forcefully installed 11.
And in reality they’re all just in the 2.6 branch. I still remember the transition from 2.4.
I wonder how that will play together with Distros like OpenSUSE Tumbleweed where you basically do a whole OS upgrade and are not supposed to do “just” updates.
I hope we can easily supply our own script to run.
Have you tried different browsers? You should also enter the full URL sometimes they’re a bit stupid nowadays. So http://192.168.x.x:1500/
Maybe the browsers bring their own VPN. Some process all traffic to make it more “mobile friendly”. Or they have some other kind of proxy.
Fli4l should. Back when it was new it was meant to fit on a floppy and run on 3’86 machines. It’s for running a home router.
I think they actually are unionized. At least in the UK. That’s what some of the Baldur’s Gate 3 actors said when asked about the anti AI strikes. They can’t participate because of the rules of their union.
If I recall correctly there is even a sentence in the article about the British union starting to tackle this issue.
A bash script would probably be easiest to write and pluck into cron.
Edit: Clone all repos you want into one directory and then loop with a script over all cloned dirs and issue git fetch
. Done. If you want to add a repo you clone another.
There are tons of computers running Linux besides PCs. By far the biggest part are servers and supercomputers. Microsoft even has their own distribution for their server business. Then there are all the Android phones and devices. Android is Linux. In Germany I’ve also often seen Linux used for kiosks at government agencies.
Linux is used in TVs and set top boxes. Everything that says Tizen or WebOS is powered by Linux. I’ve also seen it used as in-flight entertainment systems. And Lunduke had an example of Linux running on a machine controlling how cows are milked, if I recall correctly.
For most systems you won’t actually know what OS is used until you see a hardware error screen. Although Microsoft has made it a little easier with mandatory updates.
I guess the rational is that a breakup would lead to worse job performance.
I use Lutris. It downloads the Linux installers when available and every game gets its own folder.
But it won’t help you with finding save files. GOG especially has many old games and over the years there have been many different “standards” to store save files and on top of that most games didn’t even follow any standard. Use PC Gaming Wiki to find where save files are stored.
They’re great. Just avoid the reboot. Its developers didn’t even play the old ones.
