oh just out of curiosity, and to explain why it took so long lol

- Sometimes there's configurations that need to be made first, etc. But most of the time, as I said, that's for devloppers mainly (and usually it will explain in the project description how to build it as a dev, but not always tho), so for a normal user it's better to get it from main...

- to /bin or whatever so it's available system wide,whiteout having to specify the full path to it). but sometimes the .tar.gz is just raw code that need to be compiled, and then to compile & install it it will really depend on the code stack used. if it uses Rust it will sometimes be cargo...

@Kami yeah because the problem is that .tar.gz is just like a .zip, so it really depend on what the project uses. like for example, as I said sometimes it's simply a client that is compressed into a .tar.gz, but it's already built (like War Thunder Client), so you just untar it and run whatever...

@HellHeater usually installing software from a tar.gz is for developer mostly, for building it yourself (except, of course, if it's a prebuilt software that is just compressed into a .tar.gz, for example the War Thunder Client). Like most of the time if you find say a github project that offer...

oh so you mean when building stuff manually that isn't in the standard packages? usually even if it's not in the main package repository on Arch/CachyOS there's sometimes a version of it in the AUR so you can install it from there (usually there's a link to it on the software's documentation...

@HellHeater wdym installing things to Linux? Like using the command-line to install packages? And yeah, true that Wine and Proton aren't always top quality and don't always work for everything, but most of the time with a few tweaks and fixing missing libraries/fonts/Visual C redistribs/enabling...

@SpeedCubingLord oh okay, yeah Mint is great for old laptops (my record was installing it on a 20 years old laptop that had difficulties running Windows 8.1 at a decent speed. Mint made it work like a charm)

@Kami realll, Arch is so peak, and CachyOS did a great job making it more usable and even more performant

Well seriously, I wish I used low-level languages but I don't even know how to properly use python lol

Yeah I saw lol. Finally :P did he do something even badder than usual or was it because of the qty of reports?

CachyOS! Good choice, I use their optimized packages on my Arch install (also sorry for my late response haha, I'm barely active anymore here)

oh okay- have you ever tried a more windows-y distro like Mint? or did you prefer more the software compatibility of windows?

you do too? and yeah, originally was for the flex, now just because it fits my need :D

Well that's some nice t-shirts lol

yeah it's definitely been! Are you still making your 3d cubes (I think last time I was on you where making a custom core for the VIN 4x4 right?)
