I use it via Lutris, and it's my go-to way to play GW2.

I did replace my aging Nvidia card (from 2014) with an AMD RX 6000-series unit to get proper DX11 support through Vulkan.

You can just forego having the entries you'd get from Xitter.

If you work in the US, NDAs tied to severance are generally illegal.

Even so, I gave my last employer the benefit of silence for the amount of time my severance would have covered in regular salary. That time is now past.

Are you trying to engineer us socially?

I'll bite anyway.

  1. Commodore PET 2001, the original
  2. Commodore's built-in screen editor
  3. Commodore BASIC
  4. I've read books on Lisp, but to say that I've learned it or written a program I would admit exists . . . the counter is still running. Hope springs eternal.
  5. Common Lisp, but I was reading about Lisp in BYTE magazine before CL existed, in the context of AI. I was also exposed to the work of Terry Winograd, particularly SHRDLU.
  6. vim, usually without remembering to turn on its fancy features, so it may as well be Bill Joy's vi.
  7. BASH
  8. I've been advised to learn Emacs and its Lisp along the way.

A Model I was the first computer I owned. I miss it, but don't know that I'd actually use it if I still had it.

It runs about as well as it does under Windows. I'm not currently interested in paying another subscription - feels like too much pressure and the amount I spent on WoW over the years is distressing.

I've been playing GW2 since December and it also runs well with Wine.

My first computer had 4KB of RAM.

It's really good for WoW and GW2.

Don't use your hero car for that. Use one of your lookalike spares.

And he made life worse for nearly everyone.

My account age is 545 days. I upgraded from free-to-play in December 2022.

Still haven't entered a fractal, or an instanced raid, or done WvW.

Still going through story on my first character, a squishy elementalist. I'm in LW3, but have unlocked most of the PoF mounts to make it easier to do the older content.

There's a lot more to do.

Another vote for Lutris here. For many years, my main game was WoW, and it runs fine there. Now my main game is GW2, which also runs fine under Lutris.
