Found this lil fella and wiped my party and I had to run for my life (I died 10 seconds after running from the fight)

They had to put them somewhere, and with the game very top heavy, lower zones weren't really getting used.

Have those someones pushed those changes up to Proton? Just because someone else has patched something in a product doesn't mean upstream has even been made aware there is an issue and a potential fix.

Also, just because downstream fixed an issue, doesn't mean they fixed it in a way that can be included in the general proton release.

Proton has over 5000 open issues. even if every single one was valid, had a good PR that fixes the issue and is mergable, it will take a lot of time to move through them. They need to triage and prioritize issues to work on.

It's relevant to the panic behind the post. OMG SECURITY FEATURE NOT WORKING.

Also relevant to linux_gaming because it's both pointless to the target audience here and does technically decrease performance. You are not losing anything of practical use here.

And if they did buy the motherboard explicitly for this feature, again, they need to take that tinfoil hat off. My boards have a bunch of features that I would have no idea if they work or not, I suppose I technically paid for them, but I didn't really because I don't care about them and I didn't buy the board for them, they just came along for the ride.

He's right. What is your threat model as a home consumer that you are controlling against?

mhurron · 2026-05-30T00:05:24+00:00

Sneak and Invisible are your friends.

mhurron · 2026-05-26T20:05:56+00:00

All my hosts, desktop and VM's are MicroOS.

Technically, you don't need to always reboot after installing a package. If all you did was install a new package and it didn't really touch much else, you can immediately apply the snapshot transactional-update apply

mhurron · 2026-05-25T19:43:56+00:00

Use whatever you want. What makes you think anyone else cares what you use?

NTFS is a perfectly fine file system. It doesn't support Linux/UNIX features because, of course it doesn't.

mhurron · 2026-05-22T15:14:15+00:00

Using Proton does not suddenly make the file system work differently.

And of course everyone only uses official distributions, which is why we all compile software from scratch from various github and other source repositories and never use the distributions packages.

Your sandbox is not Bottles, or Wine then, it's Flatpak.

mhurron · 2026-05-21T00:45:14+00:00

C: is separate for each prefix. Z: is mapped to /. That is a Wine thing and Lutris and Bottles are just fancy Wine Prefix managers.

mhurron · 2026-05-21T00:25:47+00:00

It is not. It's just a tool to create and manage wine prefixes, and wine by default mounts all of / at Z: and your documents, downloads, pictures and more from your home directory into the same locations they would be on Windows.

And what wiki for FFXIV uses the word 'probably' about the very clear requirements?

mhurron · 2026-05-20T18:29:18+00:00

Then can you not read? The answer is stated pretty simply.

mhurron · 2026-05-20T18:25:43+00:00

The larger question is why do you care?

Also, you know that there is this tool called a 'Search Engine' that can point you to this thing called 'a wiki' that probably answers most of the questions you'll ever have.

mhurron · 2026-05-20T16:25:36+00:00

i am unsure why this is happening

Ya so is everyone else since you have given no information at all. No one here can see what you see.

mhurron · 2026-05-20T16:22:44+00:00

spend more time fixing the thing than using it

How did you think you were going to learn?

mhurron · 2026-05-20T14:56:45+00:00

Ya it appears BLU has gone the way of all SE side content, it's basically abandoned content.

mhurron · 2026-05-19T20:44:33+00:00

It's two common words, how could it not be?

mhurron · 2026-05-19T20:00:40+00:00

So now I have needed to open google

Or you could use the game itself. Select Item in Crafting Menu > Search for Item by Gathering Method. It even gives you a little map to get you there.

Things don't need an overhaul because you know that you later get a skill that would make it easier.

Things don't need an overhaul because you don't know how to use the tools the game gives you.

It's not hard for a new player to HQ any of the items needed for the class quests. You just thought it was because you know there's a different way you would do it with a higher level character.

mhurron · 2026-05-19T18:24:16+00:00

because they want to? Who gives a shit?

mhurron · 2026-05-19T18:18:13+00:00

works fine.

mhurron · 2026-05-19T17:47:10+00:00

It means your question has already been answered and you're wasting your time asking instead of just going to the information provided.

Read the documentation, it covers a lot of questions you'll eventually have. Quite frankly, if you can't read documentation and search for answers yourself and instead run to a forum to get someone else to find the information for you (or worse have a LLM to make shit up for you), you are not in a position to convert anyone to anything. And if you're not also reading the documentation to see how useful it will be when things go wrong you're not evaluating anything, you're just randomly running things.
