  • I mean yeah, but who mentioned any of that stuff? What’s dystopian about having entertainment for a potentially multi hour flight? I fail to see the utopian quality in sitting straight-backed and staring at the back of the seat in front of you for a six hour cross-country flight.

    And I really don’t give two shits what you think of me since you’re apparently a bit of a wacko.






  • Thanks for the advice! The application I’m using in Wine is Elite Dangerous Market Connector, nota game itself but a small helper app for the Elite Dangerous game. According to the git page, you can get it running from source with Python, but I wasn’t quite skilled enough to get that working.

    As far as my actual games go, those seem to all run fine through Steam/Heroic Games Launcher with Proton GE edition, which as I understand it incorporates Wine somehow…? I’m not sure of the specifics, but I assumed Wine in that context would get updated with Proton eventually.

    Sorry if this is a dumb question, I’m still very new to Linux. I have Wine 8 installed, currently just to run one application for one of my games. Should I bother to update to 9 if my current setup is working? I’m still adjusting to the FOSS environment and haven’t quite figured out whether or not I should always update to the latest and greatest just because I can.
