Bottles was having the same issue. I was attempting to install SimTower off the CD copy I have and they all were having issues running. I believe it’s a permissions issue that I could figure out, but not sure. After spending hours i went down the distro route and it worked perfectly the first time. Was able to run the installation for the game and launch it from wine.

What Linux distro are you using? I’m on Aurora and wine doesn’t really work unless you install it from the distrobox.

I have a really hard time getting Aurora working the way all my other Linux devices so that are running some form of Ubuntu (Mate or Bodhi). With that said, it’s been very stable and i like not being interrupted with packages to install while working on things…

Mixed bag review. I give it 3.5 out of 5 stars.

With Aurora, I was unable to get winehq working without installing it from a distrobox instead. I can now play SimTower on my Linux PC.

This cold make me go back to moto. I’m only on pixel for the android updates.

I avoided transcoding by making sure to only host videos compatible with all clients. Also, I will spend the time to reencode codes that are too large for my taste. Which happens after a rip of uhd disks.

H265 with slow preset really works wonders for non-grainy film. AV1 is what you have to use when there is grain.

Tailscale is what I do. If you make an exit nice they can forever stay on your VPN… I think…

Smart watch will be what I get my kid instead of a smartphone. Its basically the modern day bepper in my eyes.

I love that we can reencoding the 4k HDR to 1080 while we retain the HDR color information. Looks great to me while saving a ton of space.

Ok cool. I was just doing a few encodings manually today and was working on my own encoding application that would be specifically for us usage, but maybe this will be fine as well. Thanks for the work.

Does this support changing color spaces when going from 4k HDR to 1080? I tried this with ffmpeg manually, but gave up and use handbrake.

Where you rocking the vcr+ codes or manually recording?

Thanks for the post! I haven’t been checking for my Pixel XL for several months (March) and lost hope it would ever get a new build, but the build is there. Thanks again and to anyone involved in the effort.

I’ve got an old Nest E that I love and has never given me trouble. I also have three of the room sensors around the house. I would never upgrade… Unless Google kills app control, which I expect them to do because that’s the Google way.

Thanks. Droid-ify has their repo in the list for repos to add so I just enabled it and reinstalled.

Towards the end you could easily load custom kernels to try and make the os less laggy. Ahh those were the days …

The pre 2 was the sweet version, but webos is all I ever wanted. 😭

I got the coospo one, but found the polar apps easy enough to use.

I’m using polar bears. 🤞

😅 ok great.
