Ah, yes… if only. I’ve upgraded internally SLR 1.0 -> SLR 3.0 but we can’t deploy it until a bug is fixed in the Steam client that causes, when we enable SLR 3, all Steam Decks to run the Linux build. Yes, Steam Decks run the Proton version, solely because the save file has different letter casing (yes I know it’s so annoying haha). We’ve spent quite some time on this and there’s no way to fix this without some folks losing their saves, and that is absolutely not an option. Soooo for now desktop Linux is stuck on runtime 1.0, and Steam Deck users are stuck on Proton. “fun” :/

At my studio we maintain a native Linux version with a custom game engine, and it indeed takes a lot of time. I don’t consider Proton a viable option as we lost the ability to integrate with Linux-specific stuff such as Wayland APIs or better input, but I can definitely see the appeal of switching to Proton… if your team uses Windows. If you have some developers on Linux, you naturally get a Linux build (if using cross platform APIs ofc) and it’s actually faster to cross-compile a Windows build every once in a while (skip the slow ntfs I/O) and ship that. But it requires getting more of the team on Linux :)

Really cool to see more WINE Wayland support, I ought to try it out and see games running natively on my system!

Thank you for sharing! I will check it out.

I started getting spam in German to an email address I gave to the town hall of my town. They use multiple domains to send it, but they all have the same link format that redirects to a fake AI-generated dating site. I’ve tried reporting some to the police, as well as the hosting providers, but haven’t heard back at all. I’d like to delete the address, but it’s the one town hall uses to reach me…

The amount of folks I see use Opera GX “gaming browser” because some influencer said so…

Have you had a bad experience with canned peaches? I volunteered at a food bank a while back and we each had our station and gave out what people asked from that category (types of bread, fruits, etc). I don’t recall seeing canned peaches or folks’ reaction to them, but I’ll be on the lookout next time!

Darn. I recall reading good articles from some of these publications in the past. Shame…

This article reads like satire… it’s sentence after sentence of “and I did it using one of the [best office chairs]” which is a link to some review by themselves. Every bit mentioned had an affiliate link and there wasn’t an actual review of what the experience (software, setup, visual fidelity) is like??

Ouch, that sucks yeah. Guess I got lucky with the games my friends like to play. Only one is I guess Valorant, but I don’t engage with that one anyways. Guess you’re stuck on the dual boot until devs of these games start ticking the Proton support box :P

I’d like to read about this, but I don’t see a URL? Is it just this image?

What games keep you on Windows? Besides a few anticheat-enabled ones which choose not to support it, basically everything works fine. I game (and work in gamedev!) 100% on Linux.

I think this pinpointa what makes configuring Linux so much fun for me. It’s one little problem/challenge after the next, it never prevents me from working but it does always give me something to work toward. Currenrly working on a notification display for my bar, and I hope it will be just as satisfying in the end as when I got my mouse to animate with movements or when I got my config to set my wallpapers correctly no matter the host.

Sooo how root-able are these? My family has had one unplugged for a couple years now, we tried to use it to reach less-techy family but the French localization was abysmal, so it’s stayed in the drawer of shame since. Seems like a good time to take it out and mess with it!

Awesome stuff :) I look forward to seeing a Wayland backend implemented, so Dolphin can join all the other emulators on the modern Linux desktop as it deserves.

It’s an ordinary consumer wifi 4 router (by a company named Renkforce). I was able to use WDS with it previously, but I haven’t got it working since flashing openwrt, which is why I was trying relayd. A hotspot from my phone works (but is really slow obviously). I suspect something is wrong with my interface or firewall setup, given the colors of the interfaces.

I’ve tried to match your setup, but to no avail.

Interfaces:

lan

Static address (192.168.2.1) Firewall zone: lan

wwan

Static address (192.168.0.211) Device: phy0-sta0 (listed as the client in the dropdown) Gateway: 192.168.0.1 Use custom DNS servers: 1.1.1.1 (using root router’s IP causes DNS to stop working) Firewall zone: WLAN

repeater_bridge

Relay bridge Relay between: lan wwan Firewall zone: unspecified

Firewall zones: lan ⇒ WLAN accept accept accept WLAN ⇒ lan accept accept accept

With this, I am able to ping google.com from a openwrt ssh session, but not my laptop connected w/ ethernet (and a static ip). In the interfaces list, lan is green, repeater_bridge is grey, and wwan is red. I tried running /etc/init.d/firewall stop but still no luck.

When I follow this guide and get to the part where DNS server of wwan to the root router’s IP, I am not able to ping anything from a ssh session into the router (I get “bad address ‘google.com’”. So, I set the DNS address to 1.1.1.1 which restored ping’s functionality. However, with this configuration the network does not appear to be shared at all. My PC, connected to the LAN port, cannot access the internet (regardless of forcing a static IP for the pc)

You can’t self-host Ghost? I’d like to stay on the same domain indeed, not wanting to also mess up folks subscribed to RSS.

Awesome! Once this is out, I think I will migrate my blog from WriteFreely to Ghost. I hope I can reduce disruption for existing followers though…
