I can’t quite remember the GPS situation. I believe I had something working, but I think it might have been something from the UT store, uNav. However I can’t speak to GMaps since I do my best to avoid Google apps.

I got really close to daily driving it. I had most of the stuff I wanted in waydroid on a pixel 3a. I just need to get the android notifications bridged out from android to dbus to postal and I’d make the switch

Found my homie!!

Zealpc zilents are amazing

Hell yeah! Fuck car dependent infrastructure!

Well, the world today kind of sucks and continues to decline and the US plays global police force which no one asked for.

There appears to be a flatpak for edmc, maybe that would be easier than using wine?

A lot of the time the version of wine will cause issues with the application, so if you have something working, stick with it.

It would be worthwhile to look into a wine prefix manager like lutris or bottles for gaming. Regular apps can benefit also, but I am not up to speed on anything not for gaming.

It looks like dayz is gold, rather than platinum, meaning it will take a little tinkering. https://www.protondb.com/app/221100

Usually I start debugging this type of thing by killing all instances of steam and then launching it from command line. Steam logs a bunch of good stuff and putting it in context of your interactions helps. That said, based on what you’ve described, I would try older versions of proton, targeting releases back when games were launching. Proton/wine versions don’t always work for all games and sometimes you’ll need to launch particular titles with specific versions. Proton has been absolutely revolutionary, but these issues still pop up. ProtonDB might have reports on specific versions for specific games/titles.

Yeah, voting with your dollar definitely will make the change, just buy something else and struggle a bit harder, that change is right around the corner /s

Maybe it helps to think of it as a transitional state?

You own it, like the mortgage is paid or you rent from the bank still?

Can you speak to how those are significant downgrades?

This video was really good and there were sources listed in the description, but I would have liked to see sources linked in the video and some credits for the footage used. I didn’t see any credits for footage and some of it didn’t look like stock footage.

The content of the video was really good though and covered a lot in 30 minutes without feeling dense.

I’m really glad you commented. Your comment made me go read the thread linked and I’m glad I did, because this is some serious stuff.

Wow, this is really cool. Literarily just debt cards without the cards, or Apple/Google pay without the proprietary software. Also the option to pay friends like venmo. Open standard, open software and no reason other than capitalism to not use it.

I wonder if Taler could follow an implementation path like Apple/Google pay, I’m not sure how those services even work (is Apple/Google considered a bank? A payment processor?), yet they have point of sale integration which everyone everywhere had to pay to upgrade their systems to support.

The problems you describe are due to capitalism: profit motivated commerce. The open source business model has a focus that monetizes the human actions that are a value-add, such as continued development of targeted features, tech support and other things it makes sense to pay for specialized knowledge, but the tangibles are still open for all to modify, audit or use as they want.
