I just have pack
and extract
functions in my shell RC files that look at file extensions and use the proper tool with proper arguments.
Wrote them 10 years ago and they’ve worked flawlessly ever since!

Compared to almost all other distros, Arch is advanced in the way that it’s the simplest of them all. Nothing except the very basics are set up for you, so it’s tough to start with.
Proton is just Valve’s fork of Wine. It had a lot of game-specific patches, to make all the Steam games work better.
Wine isn’t meant specifically for games - you can run most Windows applications in it. It’s just translations of Windows syscalls to Linux equivalents, to put it simply.
Proton and Wine are largely the same thing. Proton just has DXVK built in as well as a bunch of Valve-made patches.
Valve had greatly accelerated Wine development. I still run many games off pure Wine with manually added DXVK.
I used to just check WineHQ and if it has Gold or above, you can definitely make it run
Steam version of BG2 EE worked flawlessly for me. It’s been discounted down to like 3€ a few times
It’s not that great tbh. I spent maybe 6 hours in it and didn’t get hooked. With BG3 however, I’m at 60 hours and I can’t put it down
What do you mean by “the user’s DNS” exactly??
Show me some proof of any significant performance gain from these configuration changes, then. You also forgot to mention running Zen kernel as well, which might actually provide some benefits.
Nvidia are notorious for releasing broken Linux drivers… You probably won’t notice this unless you actually update frequently. Arch is bleeding edge so they often fly right through without much testing.
I upgraded my 2600K to a 6600K and it felt like a 5x increase across the board. Same when I upgraded that to Ryzen 7 5800X
All in all, a whopping 1-2% increase. Yay!
I’ve been using Arch for over a decade, and I would advise you to be careful when upgrading nvidia drivers. They just break every so often. Just do not delete your pacman cache and you should be able to easily downgrade
No, and I’m not siding with them, but selling ads and anonymous information you agreed to share doesn’t automatically make them evil
Working in IT/development, this article encapsulates all my every day frustrations
It should simply be considered false advertisement.
You can probably legally require your money back, saying it looks nothing like the photos, but that’s not enough imo
He probably means whitelisting domains when posting already uploaded images, clearly not having read the post
Now you’re talking about the real issues I mentioned. I’m glad to have awakened your sense of justice, and hope you stop crying about optional internet cookies.
You instantly resort to name-calling and personal insults while calling me juvenile, like a true keyboard warrior, so I think we’re done here.
Hurting people for profit? Who are they hurting? It’s a free market, and it’s your choice to use their products or not. Just stop fucking whining about it all the time.
You’re a corporate slave only if you choose to be. This isn’t some 1984 dystopia as you try to make it out to be.
Start worrying about real issues. You’re a free person and I believe in you :)
You care too much about their regard for your well-being. Of course they don’t give a shit. Why would they? It’s business.
But muh POSIX
