Rant: Isn't windows supposed to "just work"?
  • I dislike Windows as much as the next guy, and recognize this is just a rant. However:

    1. Might be more HP's fault than Windows
    2. Might be mire Zoom's fault than Windows (though Windows audio is a gongshow)
    3. Just use OpenSSH from Command Prompt or Powershell. It should be preinstalled I think but if not can be installed through Programs and Features) in Windows 10 and above.
  • Difference between Manjaro and EndeavourOS
  • Endeavour is basically Arch with a more user friendly installer, a very small number of their own packages, and a coat of paint.

    Manjaro is similar, except Manjaro runs their own repositories and delays packages for testing. This can lead to a whole bunch of issues when combined with the AUR. The team leading it has also been shown to be a little inept at times. I wouldn't personally recommend it.

  • Hopping VPN servers to seed to random countries--anyone else do this intentionally?
  • The only downside is it can make web browsing and shopping a bit of a pain. But that’s my own fault for not taking 10 minutes to figure out how to set up split tunneling or just hosting qBittorrent on my media server…

    Advice: Look up Gluetun and dockerize your torrent/vpn setup. Makes things real simple (including moving where it is hosted, should you choose to)

    Hello all, I made the jump. Its been hard and I am here for some help
  • How did you install PCSX2? The fact that you are launching it through Cartridge makes me a little worried that you are using the windows version. Try the AppImage or Flatpak packages and see if you have any improvement (assuming you aren't already using those)

  • EAC Seems broken on Arch?

    I recently installed BattleBit Remastered on Steam (uses EAC). Upon trying to run the game, I only get as far as a screen telling me to ensure EAC is installed. I tried their "repair EAC" option in steam, and there was no change (a terminal opens, blinks, and closes again). I tried a system update to see if that would help, but no dice.

    Now, when I try to launch Apex Legends (a game which I play all the time), I see EAC loading extremely slowly, then it goes away, but the game never launches (though Steam still shows the title as running).

    Is anyone else having issues right now (with an up to date system)? Has anyone else experienced this before?

    Edit: Decided to format my OS drive and move to Fedora. Using the same steam library, both games are now working. Clearly some package ended up misconfigured, but I have no idea what or why.
