Pure BS Johnson stuff right there

From your other comments you seem to have a system simmilar to mine. I use mint, and i’m very happy with it, feature rich and ubuntu based, without the features you dislike like snap.

Only real step requirs for gaming has been installing some overclocking and heat management stuff like corecntrl, as well as some 32 bit archetecture stuff to run steam.

From my understanding that was actually the EU and the UK just fallowed suit because we’re dependent on EU supply chains.

My understanding is that there are modules you can install to AD join a linux machine, i don’t know much about it unfortunatly because it’s not something i’ve ever had to do. I’m also unclear whether there is a different process per distro type.

I would speak to your company IT about it tbh.

Teenagers have started refer to me as sir and that was it for me 😂

It’s not so much about you as an individual, it’s about catalogueing and manipulating trends in our societies that can be used to make profit, for example Meta spends a lot of money and time manipulating election outcomes in favour candidates that will keep their taxes low through manipulating their content algorythm in favour of their desired candidates.

But proton isn’t an emulator? It’s an API converter

It’s not a deterant against suicide, it’s to stop suicidal people taking out life insurance to give their loved ones a pay off before they top themselves.

Insurance is a bet between Client and Insurer that the client will pay more in before the insurer has to pay out.

They were founded as a playing cards company so… aye?

Ok so I’ve fixed it, appears to have been an issue with the tool having come from my backup rather than installed directly.

couldn’t uninstall due to “missing shared content” so i deleted the file and verified integrity so it downloaded them - everything is now running perfectly, tried a few different games and they are working great.

cheers for all the help!

Hadn’t thought of doing it that way, looks like a permissions error (which makes little sense to me tbh

I support a large number of windows servers, and the answer is it largely depends on what i’m doing, like if i’m doing a file restore i find navigating folder structures a pain in the ass from a CLI, so i’ll just use GUI.

If i’m doing something a bit more complicated like running AD reports, easier to just use powershell.
