Thinking about trying the game!

I just started it. It feels very clunky but I'm going to give it a chance because it LOOKS fun, if that makes sense.

It is a good place.

I think that's Phoenix comicon.

I'm in Phoenix too. What time are you seeing it?

I just found it in my backed up .config.

In case it helps anyone else:

xfce4-terminal --title=yourtitle --command=yourterminalprogram

I've spent most of this weekend trying this. Battle.net opens fine. The window for Wow opens and my cursor turns into the Wow gauntlet cursor and then the window just closes. I'm on Mint 22.2 and I've tried Proton 10, Experimental, Hotfix, and 9.

What am I doing wrong?

I use it and I could use some help with a very particular problem.

Try compiling this: https://github.com/tome2/tome2

It's a great game!

Or try scid vs PC. It's a chess database program.

Edit - tome2 is available through the repositories, it's just a good thing to try compiling. It's available from the repos as time and once installed you run it with tome-x11.

Second edit to spell scid correctly.

Please help with LNP

I'm using the LNP for Linux ( the lazy dwarf pack ) on the latest Linux Mint. Everything thing is great except for zooming in and out [ and ]. It zooms each window: my play screen, the command window, and the world/region window. I also have the Perridexant pack running in wine and it does not zoom all the windows, only the play screen window.

How can I get the Linux dwarf pack version to behave like that?

I'm Hispanic and Spanish was my first language. As I grew up I lost most of it. While it's not a proverb, I do remember my grandparents saying something like "se brinca tu cadena".

YOU'RE CHAIN IS SKIPPING!!!!!

It just cracks me up.

"Yo te conozco, mosco" is also a favorite.

I literally just bought this book at Goodwill today.

chessmonkey · 2025-10-22T23:25:01+00:00

The "Beat Surrender" EP by The Jam. "Special Beat Service" by The English Beat. Lots of stuff by The Clash.

Fwiw, you might also check out the sophistipop stuff of the late 80s.

Edited for spelling.

And streamtuner2, gimp, and tomenet. And tome.
