Since there’s been a resurgence lately of the “mastodon is mostly just for folks who use Linux” thing …
… i’m now curious about my community here
(i’m offering intentionally crude and ungranular options in this poll)
“I use Linux …”
(Please boost!)
so, quick question for those who can/will help... i'm trying to install the stardew access mod, and i watched a video wherein someone was trying to install it, and they have a "libraries" folder inside there mods/stardew access" folder... i don't. am i missing something? i'm using steam for windows
@masonasons that's interesting. I wonder if you only have 32 bit wine installed for some reason. Which dstro are you using? Also, you could try creating a wine bottle and see what it comes out as. It should be win64 by default:
DISPLAY="" WINEPREFIX=~/.local/wine/test wineboot -u
Then check to see what ~/.local/wine/test is.
@masonasons it sounds like it is not up to date. You can try deleting your local copy and recloning. I checked and it does specify 64 bit, and everything is up to date, so I did remember to push changes. If you check git log, you should see this at the top:

Merge branch 'testing' latest game additions, updates, and bug fixes.
@masonasons That was the original way back when AGM first got started, even before it was in git. The problem is, some games require conflicting versions of Windows, xp vs 8, vs 10 etc. Also some games require dependencies that break other games. This is why they aren't in bottles like winxp, win8, win10 etc. The closest we got for saving space was combining developers into their own bottles, which doesn't always work, but usually does.
@baethyn @JStark the Stormux setup for X86_64 is still experimental. If you want a distro that just works and is easy to set up and maintain, give Slint a try.
Arch is accessible now, you just have to select the speech option when booting. This is why the projects that made it accessible are no longer active.
@jonathan859 @masonasons it is an installer and menu for Windows based audiogames to get them working in Linux.
@masonasons lol that one and the one for Swamp; it's like having dial up again.
@masonasons remember to back up your save.bin and any custom battle decks and any custom game lists.
@masonasons Oh, that's a bit of an edge case. You have to reinstall because it moved from being a 32 bit application to 64 bit. If you want help with that, we can meet on Jitsi Meet and I can walk you through the process.
@masonasons Type git pull and it will pull in the latest changes. Also, if you launch audiogame-manager it will prompt you for updates.

Storm Dragon pushed changes to the master branch of the audiogame-manager project Merge branch 'testing' latest game additions, updates, and bug fixes.
@masonasons It is git checkout testing. Hold on a sec though and I'll merge it. No one has complained about any sort of bugs in over a week, so it's probably ok.
@masonasons it does, in the testing branch.
@khronos I think some of my friends use one called mirc. I'm pretty sure it has scripts or something. Of course there's also WSL with irssi.
Wow, I'm starting to think I might be the only person on the whole planet who doesn't use discord. I even know people who don't have facebook who use it, and almost everyone is on facebook.
