From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Looks like there's still something you can try, brother.

After bashing my face against the wall getting lutris to run StarCraft 2, I'm avoiding looking at my OS too hard

I feel like I should try arch just once so I understand the memes

I too bashed my head with lutris on some games to the point that i gave up on Linux. Then i tried it again but this time using Bottles and it's working really fine for me, almost flawless.

Yeah I think it's time to stop being lazy and actually learn how wine works, I can't get Warcraft 3 to work
