Several windows programs won't work with Wine. Would running a Windows VM be a better option?
  • Have you checked these all on winehq? It would be nice for them to be reported with logs if they haven't already.

    Garmin Express for example is on there with some discussion here: https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=40213

    It might not help in the short term, but even just having logs for more broken programs could be useful for the wine project.

  • Trump campaign staff had altercation with official at Arlington National Cemetery
  • Chris LaCivita, a top Trump campaign adviser, added in a separate statement that the cemetery official was “a disgrace and does not deserve to represent the hollowed grounds of Arlington National Cemetery.”

    How could they resist putting a [sic] in there?

  • Tried to install Nixos for the first time..
  • I've had those errors on my system for years. I never thought that they were NixOS specific. I just assumed something to do with a buggy firmware:

    Enabled 4 GPEs in block 00 to 1F
    ACPI Error: Aborting method \_SB.PCI0.GPP2.PTXH.RHUB.POT3._PLD due to previous error (AE_AML_UNINITIALIZED_ELEMENT) (20240322/psparse-529)
    [x~20]
    ACPI: PCI Root Bridge [PCI0] (domain 0000 [bus 00-ff])
    

    I don't notice any ill-effects from them, so it may be a red herring. I have a:

    $ < /sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/board_name
    ROG STRIX B450-F GAMING
    

    with a 5900X.

    I don't usually see as many prints as you have there, but it's quite a few, and the number seems to vary (grow?) over time. I keep meaning to investigate it, but haven't got around to it.

    I think you should keep looking in your logs for other problems. If you can share the full log I'd be happy to take a look.

  • EA SPORTS WRC adds new Kernel level anticheat that breaks linux support
  • You're suggesting people not be able to run software in kernel mode on their own systems.

    I would never run kernel mode anti-cheat, but going down this road will lead to hardware attestation and the end of open computing for anything with online services.

  • How far should a programming language aware diff go?
  • Why would there be one answer to this? I'd probably use all the available levels depending on the situation, in the same way I'd use --word-diff or -b in git when I need help understanding a complex change.
