I feel like neighborhoods not having local small-scale stores is a uniquely American problem.

Here in Brazil every neighborhood is expected to have at least one grocery store, one convenience store, one pharmacy, one bakery, and one gas station. And most of them have a lot more than that, and a dozen other businesses.

Like sure, you have to drive to the city center to get to the big shops and you’ll generally have more options if you do, but still.

The exception is like. Specific developments built by and for wealthy people who want to Live Away From The Poors ™️ in a tropical imitation of American Suburbia. But THOSE people are there by choice.

Insert SpongeBob clip of Mr. Krabs saying “MONIE!”

Ah I wouldn’t know about THAT. I just download and convert epubs from the likes of z-library/libgen, and have done so since getting my first Kindle circa 2012

What for? Cuz loading pirated books is trivial?

Only if you want to synch reading progress between multiple devices.

I am very sorry and promise to do better in the future.

Fucking called it.

In Brazilian early aughts urban lingo, “x9” means “snitch”

Lutris is just for organization, and managing the Wineprefixes. I don’t even use it as an installer per se. I install manually with wine and then point Lutris to the right prefix and game executable.

Anyway, the steps outright skipped are:

• Having to unlock the FS for writing and set up SSH and (…) – This is a security liability if you CARE. I don’t, I just think it’s more effort than necessary.
• Transferring the game folder from a PC to the Deck, since you just. Do it all inside the deck itself.

It’s no big deal doing either of those, but I find it less of a hassle.

My procedure for pirated games, on both PC and deck is:

• On terminal, create a prefix by using export WINEPREFIX=. Like /home/myuser/Games/NameOfTheGame/pfx
• Run winetricks -q corefonts – The fonts ensure the installer won’t have any rendering errors, plus running winetricks at least once forces wine to create the prefix’s folder structure.
• Run the installer from the same terminal session, just doing wine Setup.exe
• Usually install to /home/myuser/Games/NameOfTheGame/game for organisation’s sake, but this is unnecessary and requires dealing with Wine’s handling of your unix folders which is always slightly annoying.

From here, you could launch the game directly through Steam, but then Steam would create its own prefix, and some games require fiddling around with the things installed on the wineprefix (or with envvars or…), which is why I use Lutris as a middleman, as it ensures the game will run on the prefix I created, and if anything is missing, I can winetricks it. Lutris even offers a ‘create Steam shortcut’ option to make it all look neat on the Deck’s console mode screen.

Most of these steps can be skipped by installing the Lutris flatpak on the deck itself and using desktop mode (… Plus an external mouse and keyboard) to set up your pirated games directly from the deck.

Additionally, if you’re smart about it you can use syncthing as a ghetto “cloud” solution to synch your progress between PC and deck.

Gryphon. It’s a baby gryphon.

Thank you.

Thanks. I’ll do some exploring.

Tendi.

Escroto, mas compreensível. Obrigado.

PC. Linux & Windows. The former for me, the latter for a friend.

“Jaywalking” being a crime is such a fundamentally brainrot thing

The law here in Brazil, not that anyone follows it, but it basically follows the logic of “the smaller you are, the more of a right of way you have”. I.e. theoretically, a car should ALWAYS stop or slow itself to save a pedestrian or cyclist or even a motorcyclist

… Again, not that anyone follows it, but it IS on the paper.

I think you might have the latest. The flatpak version that is currently on my machine is 1.1.1397 – But the source I just grabbed and didn’t build is more recent.

EDIT: The flathub build is still up – For now. I pulled the latest update from there. It was 1.1.1403

In the meantime, anyone got a backup of the sourcecode & the binaries for win/linux?

When it was clear Yuzu was on its way out, I took out a backup and saved it in my personal server to share around with friends who asked, but Ryujinx disappeared without an announcement, so I didn’t get a chance to do that.

EDIT: Managed to find a backup of the source from just a few hours ago and save it to my own server. Guess I’ll have to compile it on my own if I want to share binaries with people who ask :P

When they were a kid and therefore couldn’t recognise political messaging due to not knowing what politics are.

What I’m saying is that literally 100% of “I miss the good old times when things weren’t political” people are just longing to return to their childhood innocence, where they could just enjoy things thoughtlessly, but also lack the self awareness to admit that.
