I just play video poker at the bar and make sure I’m getting my drinks refilled regularly. Tip well and they dont care how much youre betting. Doesnt matter if I’m losing, cause I’m still paying less for drinks than if I went anywhere else!

The food is crazy expensive on the strip, but theres some good cheap stuff elsewhere. Fremont has some good stuff, my favorites were Binion’s Cafe and Tacos and Miches.

It is not. Its just a precursor of THC, when smoked or caped its decarbed to THC.

What doesn’t seem clear-cut? My only point here was that using Lemmy does not directly fund the creator of it.

You support one thing who’s creator has questionable views but not the other. The main difference seems to be that you like one and not the other.

You’re making assumptions about me. I use Piefed, not Lemmy. I also do not believe that this situation is enough for me to not support Framework. All I’m saying here is that supporting Framework is for the most part direct financial support, while one can easily support the Lemmy as a whole, without providing financial support to the creator with questionable views.

I don’t care to debate about whether this makes supporting Lemmy better or worse than supporting Framework. I only on what I feel is an oversight in the comparison made by the comment I originally replied to.

Thats a valid point, but I still feel its a less direct form of support, which was my point. I dont feel that it is the same as directly financially supporting a project you morally disagree with.

But not required. If I do not morally support the developer I can instead choose to financially support individual instances, or other projects like Piefed or mbin.

My point here is that comparing this situation to using Lemmy is a bad comparison. Supporting Framework is pretty much exclusively via financial support, the same is not true for Lemmy.

Using Lemmy isn’t giving that tankie money.

I recently started using Halloy and really like it

whoops, edited my other comment since I hadn’t noticed your reply yet.

Can you share the launch options you’re using to set PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1, as well as verify the the crash gives the same error?

I found a few examples of the variable not working correctly for people. Could you share your proton version and the logs?

Oh my bad, I misread the first line. In that case, I would guess that Proton on Steam might be using a different version of the DirectX translation layer. I’m not sure which that is, since im not sure which directx version the game uses.

Very interesting that at least one person reported the same error happening on Windows.

Edit: My guess is that wine is using WINED3D, the directx 9 to opengl translation layer, while proton is using DXVK. Since the game reportedly has this error on windows, the issue might actually be that DXVK is doing the “correct” thing and crashing the same way it would on windows.

Did you verify that PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 crashes with the exact same error and not a new one? Since you said the game works with vanilla wine, which defaults to wined3d, I would expect this to fix it.

I am aware, OP saying EoP just made me think of powerline and I wanted to share it for anybody who hasn’t heard of it since its a neat technology :)

Appreciate you sharing this for anyone whos unaware though! I also didn’t know that plugging it into an outlet multiplier could have issues, thats interesting.

aka powerline networking

Steam uses the Steam runtime and can automatically apply specific settings and configurations known as Protonfixes.

Try using Proton in Lutris and enabling the Steam runtime. Lutris has support for a tool called Umu Launcher which essentially replicates Steams method of launching games and applies Protonfixes for you. I don’t know the exact requirements to use it, but looking around in the discord (unfortunately) might get you some info.

It has 9k contributors and 20k stars. Just because you havent heard of it doesnt mean nobody has.

Also Guix is doing the exact same thing.

Desktop packages haven’t even been a part of the Nix repos for 10 years.

Yes they have? Why are you just making shit up.

Thats just not true. Nix and NixOS are not the same thing. Nix is meant for CI/CD. NixOS is an OS designed for both desktop and server use. Why would there even be so many desktop environments and desktop software packages if it wasnt designed to be used on a desktop?

Pitbull hate is so damn weird

I’ve never minded micro transactions, as long as they’re cosmetic and dont exist in a full AAA priced game, and Valves are neither.

I’m always split on Valve here. I’m not entirely against gambling, I enjoy it in moderation. I do think children should be prevented from partaking in it, but I also dont want to have to verify my government ID to be able to buy and open cases.

Awesome to hear it works well! I havent been able to give it a proper try yet as I use COSMIC and a compositor bug is causing the daemon to close whenever the launcher window is closed.

The next COSMIC release will be available in the next few days, so I’m hoping that its fixed.
