The AC4 image is suitable, as I will, in fact, continue pirating the hell out of Ubi games I want to play, including Black Flag which I almost 100%-ed recently (haven’t gone 100% on main missions yet).

If you’re a new or intermediate Linux user or sysadmin, you might have felt an odd fascination with the myth of systemd. I invite you to this deep dive into systemd’s nuts and bolts. I’m not gonna beat around the bush: It’s a hairy business, it will be hard, but I promise juicy and satisfying rewards if you keep pumping through this guide.

Let’s start by uncovering the “D” of systemd, the secret sauce that doesn’t get the love it deserves: D-Bus.

Okay, those innuendos have to be intentional!

It isn’t. I’m on PopOS 24.04 Alpha 7 (soon to be Beta 1), because of COSMIC (and because I was having some bugs with Fedora a few months back).

I recently wanted to tinker with a piece of software that wasn’t packaged, and I couldn’t compile it because of outdated libraries. I could return to Fedora specifically to tinker with it but as an ex-distrohopper, I know it isn’t worth the effort.

Even though Fedora or some version of it will likely be my forever distro, I will stick to PopOS for now because I can’t be bothered to distrohop and back up months’ worth of files, including game saves and a ton of stuff in my Downloads directory.

Java is easy, Bedrock is almost impossible.

For Java, there are plenty of cracked launchers. Just find one that is a jar file and make sure you have OpenJRE installed. I think I was using SKLauncher.

For Bedrock, your only real option is finding the cracked launcher AppImage that has the ability to use .apk files. The hard part is that if you’re on an x86 platform (anything desktop that’s not using Apple’s M-Series or Qualcomm’s chips), you need an x86 apk, and the x86 apks from TLauncher will not work, I tried. You could scour the internet and find 1.8, and 1.14 (Village and Pillage) x86 apks, but they’re super old at this point. In the end, I gave up and paid £6 (UK), for Minecraft on the Google Play Store, so I can play Bedrock. It’s probably the only digital game purchase I’ve ever made.

Same here tbh, but I never used my Linux device for it in the first place, so…

Apparently, there was some drama within Organic Maps and this is a fork. Idk if it’s worth it.

Especially if you’re using the Chaotic-AUR to get the latest updates ASAP without recompiling (like with the COPR repo on Fedora)

Wait, MX has finally been supplanted by superior options? Unbelievable!

(Still feels like an outlier when you consider actual popularity of distros)

I’ll refer you to someone that covered all this better than I could: https://lemmy.sdf.org/comment/21003452

But XFCE IS on Wayland though?

Can this be used to root Android phones?

If yes, it canbe useful. If not, it’s potentially problematic

I REALLY want to try PlaMo, but I wish I could use Mobile Linux on my phone. I can’t, but oh if I could, or if I could run PlaMo on Android, it would’ve been great. I once even “riced” my phone to look like Plasma Mobile.

I know, right? Quite ironic that their own devs were going on about how unhappy they were with GDM dropping X11 session support.

I seem to vaguely remember it working on Hyprland a while back, though it’s possible I’m misremembering things. Also, idk about it on Nvidia.

How does one even get to add search plugins on Qbittorrent? And how do you make sure they’re any good i.e you only visit the good ones?

Yeah, but Canonical have stated they want X11 session support (for GDM to be able to launch, not necessarily for GNOME’s X11 session), for 26.04 LTS, for one last LTS.

All true. And yet, plenty of people do want to play those games. And there are other games (Borked) which also cannot be played no matter what. Really annoying, that.

Obligatory Fuck Denuvo. If I had virtually infinite money, I’d do a hostile takeover of Denuvo and burn it to the ground.

Something tells me Canonical won’t just kneel to THE ALMIGHTY GNOME TEAM

How will they reconcile this with Ubuntu that wants 26.04 LTS to still be able to launch X11 sessions from GDM?
