vert nice

TIL about bottles

I imagine it’s a layer on top of wine?

it’s a wine manager with versioning (y’know like git, snapshots and such), neat dependency manager, easy access to wine utility, and easy way to open prefix folder

tho they are revamping the versioning system for the next release

it should work, but doesn’t mean bios will automatically detect a bootloader there

you may need to add it manually

Can you make it use proton easily? That’s one thing I’ve been missing from other wine managers

okay show me pls.

kind of, tho proton and wine devs really don’t recommend you use proton outside of steam cause it has steam-isms

Ahh I see

what you want for games outside of steam is a wine version with a ton of proton patches and enable dxvk and vkd3d or a custom proton that removes steam-isms

wait until you learn about bottles of water

*gasp*

i learned about poetry today

apparently python dependencies are becoming less cringe

tho bottles does support modifying steam made prefixes

what about steam library integration into the package manager

Oh interesting. I’ve been using pipenv

imagine emerge misc-games/age_of_empires::steam

Poetry looks nice though

feels like cargo but actually usable

not until those package managers support delta updates

so far only dnf and flatpak does

no need for delta updates, can just rip out the old and in with the new

(delta updates, downloading only the diffs for updates)

cause games are massive in size

don’t wanna waste bandwidth and needless rewrites

Fuck it. Just nuke the whole system and start from scratch

true, but a price I’d pay just to close the steam client

nixos moment

Lmao

So true though!

you gotta enable steam prefix support in settings tho
