Some packages recommend other packages that are not really dependencies. Do you use apt? I think it has a --without-recommends flag or something similar.

71·2 days agoClair Obscur: Expedition 33 has one of the most interesting world in stories inside and outside of gaming. I hope we will see many more stories set in that world.
The hook alone is great.
Spoiler for the prolog and trailers.
Around the end of the 19th century the whole world broke apart and a part of Paris (called Lumiere in the game) was thrown into the sea.
And this giant “Paintress” started painting the number 100 on an enormous monolith and each year she counts down. And everyone who is that old or older evaporates into ash and flower petals.
So the people started sending out expeditions to find out wtf is going on.
Spoiler for the rest of the game.
The world is actually a magical painting the Paintress’ son made when he was a child. For him, his sister and their parents to play in. But when he was an adult their other sister was tricked by “the Writers” into setting a fire which killed him.
In her grief the mother fled into the painting because it was the last bit she had of him. Fearing she would stay in there until she died of starvation the father went in as well to get her out. As she wouldn’t relent he started erasing the painting and she tried to prevent that. Every year painting the age of the people she wouldn’t be able to save from him onto the monolith.
So we actually have this world of magical Painters and Writers who are at war with each other and it is hinted that there are Musicians as well. And who knows what other artists with magical powers exist in this world. I’m imagining Programmers joining the fray in the future. The possibilities both inside any art pieces and outside in the “real” world are endless.
2·3 days agoGot it from this song that was falsely credited to Weird Al Yankovic on eDonkey. https://youtu.be/9hNkfvW64VU
7·4 days agoThe game is DRM free. Nothing is stopping you.
6·4 days agoIt’s the decade of Linux on the desktop!
1·4 days agoSimon the Sorcerer Origins was the latest Linux native game I installedand it was catastrophic. The run script didn’t work at all. They didn’t even run it once. It consisted of only two lines and both were totally wrong. And once I had corrected those lines the controls didn’t work.
Switching to Proton and downloading the Windows version made it work out of the box.
It’s a shame.
Have you tried Yoga?
13·7 days agoI read the part I’m using. So if I’m configuring something I look through all the available options. But I wouldn’t look through every functionality that’s available.
Or if I’m working with a library I look at an overview of what classes are available and when I’m using a class I look at what that can do. But I won’t look at every single part. That would overwhelm me.
Asshole son, mow the lawn!
2·8 days agoAutomatic upgrades handle the security patches. Everything else maybe once a month. My big services like Nextcloud auto update as well.
1·8 days agoYeah, will definitely report it if I find out what Steam does differently.
Ha! They didn’t know it but @kerobaros@lemmy.world pushed me in the right direction. Running through Steam was the solution.
Actually, your comment gave me the idea of trying to run it through Steam. And that actually fixed it! Thanks!
Now I just have to find out what that does differently from Heroic’s “use Steam Runtime”.
To get better control over the whole system. I mainly wanted full disk encryption and a recent KDE Plasma version running on Wayland.
Yeah, you’re probably right. My setup could hardly be farther from the norm. But maybe I’m lucky and catch the eyeballs of the right fellow nerd.
Just yesterday, when I told the great wizard Lorroakan
spoiler
that the Nightsong is dead. “That always happens to me!”
Plenty of jokes remaining in Act 3. Like Expedition 60.
Play The Cat Lady to combine them both! And it’s even discounted at the moment.
I’ve made an update script that tries to run the migrations and index updates in one go.
#!/bin/bash /usr/bin/php8.3 /cloud/updater/updater.phar --no-interaction --no-backup /usr/bin/php8.3 /cloud/occ maintenance:repair --include-expensive /usr/bin/php8.3 /cloud/occ db:add-missing-indicesThe updater itself is by far the slowest of the three commands. I think downloading the new version into a different folder and just moving apps and files over would be much quicker. But I haven’t had the time to look at potential errors with that method.
