I wasn't going to get vr until it was plug and play on Linux and that has been the case for me so far, using alvr

a curse upon these distros for alarming people with such messages. they are meaningless and technically apply to every flatpak

LTS means security fixes, but little else if any. good luck if you need a feature that came out a year ago it's not in the repo yet

probably would be better if they didn't have these flying over populated areas with a bunch of terrifying fuels aboard but what do I know, we have trains carrying the worst stuff ever in our back yards

yep, and then they got rid of the ppa and people had to fall back to the deb

it hasn't been a problem lately, but for basically an entire year I was helping first timers through getting a more recent lutris for games because the one mint shipped was ancient and broken and on top of that the 32 bit wine dependencies were practically impossible to resolve for some games

those warnings on mint and flathub are so ridiculous, there's no difference between those and official ones, somebody could just as easily put something nefarious in any flatpak

fwiw those simple names exist, you just haven't added it to your PATH

couldn't even save himself from manufacturing consent, now he's a vote blue no matter who tool of the state

it's so annoying that these repositories are so ancient that debs are necessary at all . but it comes in handy for things like lutris, which Ubuntu and mint shipped a broken version for at least a year

its a bit verbose but my preference is rm -r --interactive=never directoryname

i really try to avoid rf for myself

I remain of the opinion that New Trek has some of the most annoying sci-fi fan service outside of Star Wars. given every opportunity there's references to other trek things crammed in everywhere
