My daughter plays slime rancher off my desktop running Arch streaming to the steam link in her room.

I've been using heroic game launcher. Easier then Lutris and bottles.

On top of that. I just got a new laptop and bit locker was setup by default. Had to go into Windows and disable bit locker before disabling secure boot. I didn't do that, RE enabled secure boot, then had to get the recovery key for bit locker.

If you install ge proton, on steam when you open compatibly options you can choose any version of ge you have installed. I use it all the time. I use proton up qt from the discovery store to manage ge proton versions.

Been doing this for like 2 years. It's great and the entire family can easily use it.

Edit: But have stremio on a Chromecast.

Awesome thanks. That's what I was looking for. I decided just to do a fresh install once it gets delivered. I don't have much on this one other then some work stuff I can transfer over.

I do construction work and travel every week. I've had this problem pop up in the last month when I connect to the hotel wifi. I just open Firefox and type in the default gateway IP and then it takes me to the login page. For whatever reason it stopped opening the page for me.

 

I've been running Arch for about a year on my pretty old Acer laptop with an I7 8750h and a GTX 1060. Got a pretty good deal on a used Asus Tuf A16 with a Ryzen 7 7735hs and an RX 7700s.

Getting Arch going with my Nvidia card was a bit of a pain. Still have the random game that thinks it needs to use the Intel GPU (which I eventually solved).

So is there anything I need to do for this new laptop or since it's all AMD should everything just work?

I used emu deck and it made emulators too easy to setup. Never did the switch stuff but have ran cemu for breath of the wild for wii u. Also have the original Xbox emulator and GameCube going.

I've been using Arch for a year and nothing has broken. Did have to "fix" a lot of stuff after install because it was my first time using Arch and didn't realize all the other stuff I had to install... Mainly to get my Nvidia GPU to work. But a few hours later and it's been rock solid since.

I got a pair of prescription glasses and sun glasses from Payne glasses for $80. I stopped wearing contacts a few years ago, and I work outside. I really missed having sun glasses.

Damn I currently only have milking goats.

 

Decided to try a few Repacks on Arch Linux. I used heroic launcher to install the games but now have no clue how to install the updates. Any one have any ideas how to get it to work?

 

Trying to see if anyone has a routine for someone totally new to running. I'm a big fan of "this week do this, build up to do this, etc..." I'm in my thirties and from a young age until I was about 20 I had severe asthma. I've never been good at running. Asthma doesn't bother me anymore but I'm needing something to do while traveling for work. I work construction all across the state and come home on the weekends.

If anyone has some ideas that would be great. When I do stuff I tend to over do it then it then it's hard to make myself go out again.
