  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    I have refunded games before when I went to install and got that bullshit because I missed it on the store page

    You should try launching Mass Effect LE from steam. It opens Origin, to then opens the Mass Effect launcher so you can pick which game to play.

    IT's so crazy to run into a comment that speaks about this. I recently got the urge to play Mass Effect, and wanted to replay through the series. I have had the game bought when it went on sale. I download all 100+gb of the game, and launch it to see some performance. EA app required. I might just request a refund, and then pirate the game, to be real with you all.

    The launchers are pretty lightweight and don't consume much. It is just annoying to buy the game on one store, it launches another store, only to launch a game launcher, then you can pick r̶̶e̶̶d̶̶,̶̶ ̶̶g̶̶r̶̶e̶̶e̶̶n̶̶̶,̶̶ ̶̶o̶̶r̶̶ ̶̶b̶̶l̶̶u̶̶e̶ I mean ME 1 2 or 3

    Using proton through lutris

    No. Don't do that. Use wine-ge instead.

    AFAIK you can set Lutris up to use GE or Proton builds.

    I'm running WOTLK classic just fine with proton on Lutris ✅

    Cyberpunk 2077 and BG3 quietly walk past...

    At least you can launch those without their launchers.

    Of course you could always add GOG Galaxy to Steam to get the ultimate perversion.
