It won’t answer all of your answers, but it should at least give you a good primer on what distros are and what are the main key takeaways.

Nice ❤️

I’m guessing Portugal?

Dont short-sell yourself, the work you’ve done is amazing. The fact that you recognize feature creep and make plans to address it show a level of maturity (I’m assuming you’re a young dev as you mention school) that a lot of devs with 5x your experience could only dream of. I know a lot of devs well past their 30s and with 10+y of XP who keep adding shit and exceptions in the product because the business has a minor use case that impacts .01% of the customers once a year and never think of challenging the use case itself.

Feature creep curses most software products without a strong governance, at the expense of everything else. You can only choose two between a readable, maintainable codebase, performance and a fuckton of features. In the end, feature creeps makes everybody unhappy, because devs have to work with messy, fragile code and user experience becomes slow, bloated and overly complex. You’re right in recognizing that the first two are by far the most important.

You’re in the right state of mind, and you’re an amazing dev who created an amazing product.

You mean Cornwall?

Haha thanks !

I would like to say I’m used to fstab too but honestly I barely have to use it once every five years 😅

The issue was indeed from the fstab. But it was because exec was specified before users.

The games crash long before launching proton. I suspect something is fishy in the runtime or even before that.

Worst case scenario, I have to nuke this drive and start over. I’ll keep digging tho.

Good call. I’m seeing some stuff I don’t like, I’ll investigate tomorrow.

99% of the time, if a game “should run fine” and nothing happens, it’s because it’s installed on a Windows partition (NTFS or exFat).

Try moving it to a Linux partition.

If it still doesn’t work, you can start advanced troubleshooting.

Unless most “relevant” answers point to a Microsoft help forum with shit answers.

I have to use windows for work and I hate this bullshit.

Links means Left in german. Same pronunciation. Bilingual play on words if you will.

*Links 🇩🇪

Ok, opposite take.

Somebody with business knowledge with just enough technical Excel knowledge to cobble together a 5000 lines monstrosity of unreadable, unmaintainable python+pandas workbook that needs 2 painful hours of single-threaded processing time each run, with zero understanding of general development best practices, technical or organizational constraints, who asks us tu put their shitstain straight in production today because our fucking moron of a manager told them so.

Said shitstain could have been replaced by a 2h workshop and a couple of sql queries.

Said shitstain crashed almost daily in production. The running costs alone would have been offset in a month by a 1 week refacto.

Fuck this place. I’m glad I left before becoming insane.

I’ve successfully used Anyconnect for years in a dedicated Windows VM. However I only used it to connect to a Remote Desktop so performance was a non-issue.

Based as fuck.

Yeah mayo in France almost always has mustard, except for Heinz packets in fast food chains.
