I’ll never understand why people use apt-get for anything other than scripting, or specialized commands when programmers have put in real effort to make apt easy.

The author could have saved 4 keystrokes! Saving keystrokes is the entire point of Linux! Just look at how abbreviated the root folder naming scheme is. It took years of effort to find the perfect abbreviations and directory structure to minimize keystroke. The loss of legibility and discoverability might suck, but it’s worth it. And this author is over here wasting keyboard fuel on “-get”. smh

There are dozens of us.

Orginal Oblivion with mods. I have never played it. I just got the game installed yesterday, and set up in Vortex. Now I have to go grab all the mods, which is very manual. Vortex mod installation links on the Nexus don’t work on the deck. There might be a way to fix that because the mod suggestion list I’m looking at said there’s a way to make links work with Mod Manager 2 on the Deck.

I’m following a curated list of mods that will be a “vanilla+” experience. Not too crazy or anything. It’s called “A Pocket Full of Cheese Wheels” on the Nexus. It comes with a one-click installer shell script that installs Mod Manager 2 and a bunch of other stuff on the Deck but I’m just going to do it manually. The script is old and no longer maintained.

I modded Fallout 3 with Vortex on my Deck, and it was pretty easy when the game is installed on the SD card. I feel like that was key, but I don’t remember exactly why. You also have to symlink the “My Games” folder from the Fallout 3 (or Oblivion) Proton prefix into the Vortex Proton Prefix. That’s so Vortex can manage the INI files and such. Plus you set the SD card as the D: drive in the Vortex Proton prefix so it can see the game’s folder, too. In fact, I think that’s was done automatically done by Steam. Maybe that was why I installed the game on the SD card. But it’s not like you couldn’t make your own drive mapping. It’s a simple symlink named like “d:” or “e:” in the “dos_devices” folder. I don’t see why that couldn’t point to the NVMe drive, but I feel like people online said that wouldn’t work. Vortex is also installed on the SD card.

Maybe some day I’ll document all of this.

That’s awesome! Must have taken a day or two, I bet.

As far as I can tell, you’re settings are your settings, not per-account, and the database backup contains all of your accounts. You need both backups: settings and db.

Edit: I just verified that settings are for the app, not per account.

Imagine what nerds could accomplish if they funneled their hate into real action instead of new Linux distros.

You have to eat the skins, and you have to add butter made from the milk of grassfed cows. Only then does it offer enough nutrition to survive. It’s still not great for you.

This graph is why I hate it when every video about a corn starch suspension says it’s a “non-Newtonian fluid” as if that sufficiently explains it.

Potatoes are proof that god loves us and wants us to be happy.

Does it actually list the packages that are suggested?

If a package is recommended, it gets installed by default. They’re not strictly necessary for the core functionality of the main package, but they are commonly used by many users.

On the other hand, suggested packages are like plugins. They won’t necessarily be important to most users, but some might find them handy. Things like alternate backends for specific use cases, or a plugin to enable a specific (and rarely used) service.

I haven’t used apt in a while, but I don’t think there’s a way to automatically install all suggested packages. I think you just install them manually by copying and pasting the package names, and running additional apt install commands.

But unless you know what specific usage you need before I probably wouldn’t bother.

Can I buy the Jolla Phone if I’m outside Europe, can I use it e.g. in the U.S.?

The initial sales markets are EU, UK, Switzerland and Norway. Entering other markets, such as the U.S. and Canada are to be decided due course based on potential interest from the areas.

We have designed the cellular band configuration to enable potential future markets, including major U.S. carrier networks.

Even with that setting on, nothing would be done unless you explicitly assign a Github task to Copilot. Even then, the worst thing that would happen is you’d get a pull request at some point if you somehow accidentally assigned a task to Copilot.

It’s theorized that this is why oak trees make an inordinate number of acorns every 7 years. It tricks the squirrels to burying more acorns than they could possibly consume without them getting used to the abundance that might otherwise cause them to stop squirreling away so many.

If it’s bad, it might require preheating which can be done with a blow dryer. Very inconvenient for pen use on-the-go. A lighter can work if used very gently and you’re patient enough to let the heat sink in slowly.

I only buy batteries and carts and never disposables for reasons like this. I have one cart that’s clogged so badly I have to run the 10 second preheat cycle three separate times over the span of a minute to get it flowing enough to hit. Even then it’s challenging to hit, and it gurgles.
