Garry Newman of Facepunch mentions working with EAC for Rust on Linux with Proton

Quoting: CatKiller... but I could see the anti-cheat vendors insisting on a solution that only works on Valve's Proton - signing keys or whatnot ...
Or kernel module.

Get a closer look at the Steam Deck's Trackpad and Gyroscopic controls

I wish my Steam Controller had a D-pad...

Wine 6.12 is out now with theme work, Network Store Interface beginnings

Quoting: Sojiro84Ahh, I was expecting an actual theme, but seems it's just some changed colors.
No, it is actual theme.

There's now a Debian User Repository in the style of the Arch User Repository

Quoting: Nibelheim

Quoting: Nibelheim- It doesn't really support Debian, but Ubuntu and the author consider it "the same" (watch out for names and versions of dependencies which may not be the same between Debian and Ubuntu).
Even Debian has 3 different versions (4 with oldstable) with different versions of libraries. I wonder how these PKGBUILDs will manage this?
(Arch has 2 versions + Manjaro, but they differ very little)

Arch has 1 version since 2017, i686 support stoped. And before, the only difference was just 64 bits libs wasn't accessible to 32 bits Arch. Otherwise, everything was same (packages name etc...)

Manjaro is not Arch. Manjaro use his own repositories. Like Ubuntu is not Debian.

AUR has no Manjaro support. If something is not working on Manjaro, never ask about a fix to an AUR packager...
I meaned 2 versions: stable and testing.

Quoting: Perkeleen_VittupääWhat about the security aspect as some instances are pushing these "convenient" ways to install stuff? The authors of these packages cannot automatically be trusted and confirmed, so on. The software pulled from this "Arch style repo" are not sandboxed like snaps and flatpaks can be
You can (and have to) manually read the PKGBUILD before installing.

Talking point: what have you been playing recently?

Some wads for Doom with GZDoom as always, also some clicker/idle games.

A busy weekend ahead perhaps? Steam Play Proton 6.3-5 is out now

Quoting: CatKillerA game that isn't native and doesn't work in Proton is worth nothing (obviously).

A game that isn't native and accidentally works in Proton is worth maybe 10%. It could stop working at any time.

A game that isn't native but deliberately works in Proton (so the developer tests in Proton and fixes their game if it stops working) is worth something like 50%.

A native game is worth full price.
What about a native game that works better in Proton?
