I see, I’m not sure I can help you with that. I don’t really engage with many communities outside of Lemmy. I just lurk in various other places.

Anyway, it looks to me like you are looking for an online bubble where to efficiently isolate yourself, this can’t be good for you. I would suggest meeting with real people instead. Are you still a student? Maybe in university? Then you are probably surrounded by people your age with common interests to you, waiting for you to speak to them. Make friends, it will be fun.

That being said, I do share some of your social anxiety, so this is definitely a “do as I say, not as I do” kind of situation.

Interesting, I didn’t know you could do that through the portal directly.

I was only familiar with uinput because I have used it before to use a wiimote as a mouse, and for that you’d actually want to emulate a mouse.

Artificial scarcity

This is “download and send to the group chat” worthy, but I’m too old to deal with the “What’s that in the background?”

Sorry for your loss 😞🙏

What happened to it?

Btw, I just remembered.

You said that “if you could go to the store, buy a disc with the game, like in the good old days” you would prefer that over piracy.

I do encourage you to buy games on GoG (Good Old Games), download the installer, and burn it on a blue ray disk for you to keep.

For steam I already told in the previous comment, cs.rin.ru. You need an account to access the clean files threads.

For gog unfortunately not anymore. Check the r/piracy megathread, see if you find something

If a car breaks on the road it’s a danger to road users, this is just a fact. If it’s really that important it should be part of MOT. As simple as that.

If it’s not that important, then you should not get over people’s asses for that.

I forgot about the gog part. Yeah, you can also use those. There used to be a website that uploaded clean gog installers, but now all the download links are behind those sketchy filesharing services. Though, if you manage to get one, the binary should be signed by the developer. On windows I know you can check the signature by right-clicking on the file, on Linux I don’t remember because I haven’t needed it in a long time.

For the VM you need qemu/kvm. I suggest to use virt-manager which is just a graphical interface for qemu.

First of all, don’t expose yourself to danger. Get your pirated games from reputable sources.

Most games only need a Steam emulator like Goldberg’s to run without license, and you can get clean steam files from cs.rin.ru. You don’t need VMs for this, it’s literally the original game.

If you need an actual crack, you can also look up on cs.rin.ru and try to gauge the reputation of the uploader. You can also check fitgirl or dodirepacks, they are both highly reliable. These are unlikely to have malware, but it’s not impossible.

If you want to use a vm because you still don’t trust the pirated game in question (reasonable), then there is no shortcut. Use the arch wiki to learn how to setup a VM with GPU passthrough, even if you don’t use arch it’s always a good place to get started.

I have a single piece of expensive clothes. I have never washed it because I wore it only once for my graduation.

Plus, washing isn’t servicing. It’s just washing. I would also wash my car, sometimes.

Treating with care is also not servicing. If I haven’t broken it, and it needs servicing, then it broke by itself. If it broke by itself, then it’s a scam and has no business being expensive, I will have to pay for repairing it anyway.

Btw, comparing clothes to a car is a false analogy because they don’t cost nearly as much. And before you bring up some stupid expensive designer outfits, I refuse to acknowledge them as clothes, they are just shiny gimmicks for rich assholes

It’s not Scotland, I Just use that username.

I think the oil change is not part of the inspection here either. If the oil change was that important, it would be required to be roadworthy. Like working brakes and safe tires. If it is not that important… Then it’s not important

Here you are forced by law to get your car serviced periodically. Mechanics are known to try to rip you off every time.

Plus, I could easily raise the counter argument that if I spend thousands on a machine, it better be reliable without needing to get serviced all the time

The proper way to programmatically move a cursor on Linux is using uinput.

Anything you were doing that worked in xorg and not in wayland was more akin to a weird remnant from the 80s than to an actual solution.

However, there will likely be full featured applications that already do whatever you were trying to do.

Yeah, because you don’t know the language

Yeah, I also only learned natural deduction, until I got to the languages course and the professor told us “this is similar to natural deduction, but different”.

Personally I don’t like lean, I prefer coq. But that’s mostly the vibes, both are actually fine. Lean doesn’t do constructive logic, it does classic logic, but you have to give up program extraction for that. That’s why mathematicians are head over heels for lean.
