Found my homie!!

Well, the world today kind of sucks and continues to decline and the US plays global police force which no one asked for.

There appears to be a flatpak for edmc, maybe that would be easier than using wine?

A lot of the time the version of wine will cause issues with the application, so if you have something working, stick with it.

It would be worthwhile to look into a wine prefix manager like lutris or bottles for gaming. Regular apps can benefit also, but I am not up to speed on anything not for gaming.

It looks like dayz is gold, rather than platinum, meaning it will take a little tinkering. https://www.protondb.com/app/221100

Usually I start debugging this type of thing by killing all instances of steam and then launching it from command line. Steam logs a bunch of good stuff and putting it in context of your interactions helps. That said, based on what you’ve described, I would try older versions of proton, targeting releases back when games were launching. Proton/wine versions don’t always work for all games and sometimes you’ll need to launch particular titles with specific versions. Proton has been absolutely revolutionary, but these issues still pop up. ProtonDB might have reports on specific versions for specific games/titles.

You own it, like the mortgage is paid or you rent from the bank still?

Can you speak to how those are significant downgrades?

I’ve been mapping my city with streetcomplete and using osmand live to download my edits, organic maps has a better address search though, so I use that too. I don’t use the live traffic stuff, but osmand is capable of it.

This is totally right, but people with money like to point fingers and blame others. Ultimately paying for support is PR insurance.

I was talking about how the corrupt corporations are literally the reason we can’t have nice things. We are on the same side here. I’m just trying to express that “financial interest” is only of interest to capitalists so they can continue to profit from the efforts of common peoples. The point was to shift the discussion from trying to interest someone financially to fostering an environment in which social interest can actually cause movement and development.

The problem I am alluding to is the way that “financial interests” means somebody reaping the value from others’ labor. There is more than enough talent, interest and time available to develop robust solutions to hardware enablement if we stop feeding the machine what it consumes today. There is simply no reason that a manufacturer shouldn’t be producing hardware with open specifications to a global market that consumes its product. Additionally there is more than enough revenue that goes to paying people that contribute less than they produce for the hardware purchased by consumers. We fix this by making it illegal to create walled gardens that make us beholden to vendors.

Maybe the problem is that there shouldn’t be a financial interest in order to motivate or enable support.

Edit: for clarity, my comment is mostly directed at ublue or universal blue, which is what bluefin is based on.

I think the really value comes from the ability to easily roll new custom images and for the community to collaborate on those images to produce images that require minimal layering after the application locally.

You got any more information on this? Also, is there a point to caring if it is an intellectual property rip off and run by a particularly set of people from a particular country?

Just to be sure, you are getting your vanilla iso from MS?

It has been a while since I’ve grabbed a recent iso, but I’ve always used these with no issue in virt-manager.

Heck yeah, game industry workers are long over due for unionization. CDPR developers just had a headline in the news about unionizing after this latest wave of layoffs.

Does anything else work? For example, can you boot a Debian live disk? What about a Debian install on a VM? This will help isolate the problem to internal or external of the hypervisor.

You could look into sxmo, something like i3 but designed for phones

The point is that the community asked multiple times and they only started allowing apk downloads so people would stop asking. The signal project is open source for auditing purposes only, they have voiced their lament of forks and threatened to ban/block anyone not using an official client and refuse to make it easy to install through a package manager of the user’s choosing. The version without Google cloud messaging has unreliable message delivery, even though there is unifiedpush as a standard that would allow people to register with any push notification service.
