Linux Mint if you want a “just works” distro that isn’t Ubuntu. It’s Ubuntu-based, but with a better desktop and no snap.

Nobara if you want a distro that focuses on gaming. It’s Fedora-based and maintained by Glorious Eggroll, known for his custom Wine and Proton forks.

If you want Arch, just use Arch. It’s much less of a bitch to install with the archinstall script compared to earlier releases. EndeavourOS is another option – basically Arch, but preconfigured with a desktop and a graphical installer.



Let me guess – in addition to the existing midrolls.

I wish nothing but financial ruin and misery on Google.


It should work with and without the dashes. I’d first check if it’s installed (it may or may not come with Steam, not sure), then I’d check if there are any gamescope or *.exe processes running – and if there are, wineserver -k in that wineprefix.


In Steam, open the game’s properties, go to “Launch options”, and type in gamescope %command%. It’ll open the game inside gamescope using the default settings. If your keyboard uses a non-QWERTY layout, you’ll have to set the relevant environment variables.

You should also try running the game using Gamemode (instructions inside). I noticed in the screenshot that one of your CPU cores is maxed out while the others are near idle – does that always happen while the game is running?


Try using Proton-GE (instructions inside), and running the game in Gamescope.


I remember when it didn’t have infinite scroll, and only nine posts per page - that’s where the name came from.


The most shocking thing about that is that 9gag still exists. How far has it degraded?


My dryer is as dumb as they come. It just beeps like a motherfucker until I open the door, which is pretty effective.


I haven’t read the article, but I’m going to guess that it describes a form of encrypted tunnel with pre-shared keys that operates over any text messaging app and is trivial to implement.

In the world of tech illiterates, the script kid is a seasoned cybercriminal.


It’s not self-signed. I think we used to have a proper internal CA, but it’s gone along with its certs. And we can’t replace it because that particular server is held together by our desperate friday night prayers.


The thisisunsafe bypass - although I’m pretty sure it’s a Chromium feature and not specific to Brave. One of our servers has a completely fucked-up SSL cert, which I can’t fix for reasons outside my control. Firefox won’t allow me to connect, but thisisunsafe on Brave works.


I bought BG3 on Steam and Divinity Original Sin 2 (previous Larian game) on GOG, running it through Lutris. They both have the same quirks, but work perfectly on Linux (Arch, GE-Proton, RTX 2060 Super with proprietary driver).

The one serious issue I’ve seen is flickering when the game window is not focused. Using Gamescope fixed it completely, it’s a simple toggle in Lutris and a wrapper in Heroic.
