I don't know how much of a problem it is nowadays, but I know for a very long time, "westerners" for some reason have a tendency to view anime in a similar way to how racist karens react when they have to walk past an innocent black person while walking at the park. I've never understood it but most of the people who don't like anime, usually act like it's somehow a threat to society and do everything they can to either slander it or just straight up try to get it banned. It's insane and until people like this stop existing, anime will never be properly excepted.

It works pretty well. I don't currently play any pc games with anti-cheat, so most games work well without having to do anything special outside of running them in Wine or some other application and there are some games that actually work noticeably better on Linux than Windows. Some games have required some additional setup but it's pretty rare for games to just not work at all. Something I find kind of funny though, is that most of the games I haven't been able to get working on Linux aren't working on Windows either.
I should also mention that I don't really use mods for games. I have used mods for the Linux version of SRB2 but the game is designed to be easily modable, so it makes sense that the mods would just work.
I looked through my bash history and it looks like I needed it to build an Xbox eeprom editor for Xemu. Xemu doesn't (or at least didn't, I haven't used newer versions yet) have a built in eeprom editor and editing the Xbox eeprom is required for enabling both wide screen and higher resolutions for the games that support them natively.
I just looked at Xemu's documentation, and it looks like they've added a link to an online eeprom editor, so the editor I used (which they do still link to) is no longer required.
I've only used aliases twice so far. The first was to replace yt-dlp with a newer version because the version that comes pre-installed in Linux Mint is too outdated to download videos from YouTube. The second was because I needed something called "Nuget". I don't remember exactly what Nuget is but I think it was a dependency for some application I tried several months ago.
alias yt-dlp='/home/j/yt-dlp/yt-dlp'
alias nuget="mono /usr/local/bin/nuget.exe"
This is the reason box86/64 exists.
Back in the days of MS-DOS, there was something called "PC-Booters". They were created because of the fact that there was a lot of different operating systems that were actively used. So their solution was to just create a basic OS that contained the bare minimum required to run the game.
I am, wireplumber is part of pipewire.
While I have already found a working solution, I think the issue wasn't that it was selecting the wrong device. it was almost as if my normal audio devices didn't exist for some reason because nothing could see them, even my input devices were missing.
Ok, even though I said I'd wait until tomorrow, I decided to try it again. It seemed to boot more or less normally but I did try someone else's suggestion and it got audio working again. I did undo the edit I made to the modprobe blacklist and I did keep fluidsynth and pulseaudio uninstalled but I tried using the wireplumber ppa, like someone else suggested and my audio is working again. Granded, I have no idea what actually fixed the issue, so I don't know who to fully credit but thanks for helping.
Ok, so a lot of them are old messages, none of the messages from this session are labeled as busy. I did just try logging out and back in and that was pretty much instantaneous, so whatever it was that caused my computer to boot slowly just effect the boot itself. But yeah, I tried restarting pipewire and everything related to it and it's still just showing the dummy output device and audio isn't working. Thanks for trying though.
Ok well, pipewire is what's pre-installed and as of now neither pipewire nor pulseaudio are working. I have already uninstalled pulseaudio, as I would like to just use what's preinstalled if I can get it working again.

Is Linux Mint's package repository having issues or is the problem on my end? (Solved, I think)
(lemmy.ml)
Edit: Last night, I used the "Fix MergeList problems" option in the maintenance tab of software sources and at least for now, it seems to be working. So I probably wont need help with this anymore, hopefully.
Every hour or two, the Update Manager keeps giving me an error message saying that my APT configuration is corrupt and that I should switch to another Linux Mint mirror. It usually goes away when I do a manual refresh but it just keeps coming back. I have also tried switching to a different mirror but I get the same error. It also tells me to run apt-get update but even if I add "sudo" it just gives me an error message saying to run apt-get update.
It happened again so I'm adding screenshots in case they help. The first is the initial error, then it's the error I get when I try to change the repository and the third is the error I get when I try running the command it suggested:

I'm trying to run VirtualBox in Linux Mint but I keep getting an error message about Kernel drivers.
(lemmy.ml)
I tried looking into this myself but I couldn't really find much about this error. The only solutions I could find didn't work for me. The first one was to use mokutil but at the point where I was supposed to run sudo mokutil --import MOK.der it gives me the error message "Failed to get file status, MOK.der" even though I did everything it told me to do. The other one was to disable secure boot and then run sudo '/sbin/vboxconfig' but even though it looked like it worked, I'm still getting the error message. I have re-enabled secure boot, so you don't have to worry about that.
Is there something else I can try or does VirtualBox not work in Linux Mint for some reason?

I'm not familiar with Eee PCs but I'm assuming you'd want something lightweight. Q4OS has a 32-bit version available.
