Ah. I understand now. I can see most distros dropping support for 32-bit libraries if this happens, my guess would be distro derivatives mantainers taking this burden instead. It’s not gonna be pretty for old or abandoned 32-bit linux builds.

Steam could build for 64bit
Steam is doing that, though rather piecemeal. Both their client and runtime are moving towards 64-bit.
but it won’t help the gigantic amount of games that are 32bit also.
Doesn’t WINE’s WOW64 implementation solve this? Albeit with a non perfect compatibility.
because macos bo longer ships with the 32bit libraries needed.
I have no idea what the MacOS software landscape looks like, but if it uses WINE it might just be its silver bullet? If Steam does move towards 64-bit only, they would want to keep it compatible with Linux, due to their SteamOS ecosystem, and in turn MacOS users could also reap the benefits.
to drop x86 32bit things will start to fall apart quickly
Why dropping x86 32-bit is an issue?

Data is Beautiful@mander.xyz•World Map of Mains Voltages and FrequenciesEnglish
3·14 days ago[Fun fact to lighten things up: people often call volts “velas” candles here. So e.g. “127V” and “220V” are often called “cem velas” (100 candles) and “duzentas velas” (200 candles) respectively. Confusingly enough some also do it with watts.]
Never heard this before, brazilian here btw.
All regular sockets in my city are 220V 60Hz. I think only places like hotels have different voltages.
Or people who have old houses, 2 pins sockets, and rip apart the ground pin from their 3 pins plugs.
Yep, my dad can’t stand the ground pin in almost every plug. I had to convince him not to destroy them all.
Both are just Safari reskinned, right? Or did that change?

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What open source project is the most exciting for you right now?
9·1 month agoI am a tad disappointed in Ladybird due to Andreas and Kirk debacle.
You can use docker compose with podman, or use podman compose.

3·10 months agoWhy don’t you use the TWP extension? It includes even a DeepL option besides Google Translate and Yandex.
It works for me
I think maybe only Discovery and Picard are like that? The Lower Decks, Prodigy and Strange New Worlds feel closer to old Star Trek. And there’s The Orville too, though the comedy isn’t great and it takes a bit to tone it down.
While installing Linux is faster you can use the Windows ISO directly with Ventoy instead of the Microsoft tool. At least, that’s how I do it.

TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name@lemmy.world•*Permanently Deleted*
5·11 months agoIt’s not wrong per se, it’s just different. I don’t particularly like Discovery and Picard, but they’re ok. They don’t have the same monster of the week approach as the others, and a lot of the other stuff has already been discussed here; lack of development of the crew and their relationship, the main character is constantly on focus while everyone else in the bridge is in rear view, no breathing room for proper character development, the orcs/klingons, etc.
I would rather watch Lower Decks, Prodigy or even The Orville. They’re closer to what I like about Star Trek (though The Orville takes a bit to get there).
Also for some reason the image gives me serious Sam vibes.
That’s because it is!
Works on Voyager at least.
Or PipePipe (at the time it was basically Newpipe with comments to me)

linuxmemes@lemmy.world•What is the most difficult problem that you have fixed in linux?
2·2 years agoWell, in this scenario the image file had 512 bytes sections, each one is called a block. If you have a KiB (a kibibyte = 1024 bytes) it will occupy 2 blocks and so on…
Since this image file had a header with 512 bytes (i.e. a block) I could, in any of the relevant Linux mounting software (e.g.
mount,losetup), choose an offset adding to the starting block of a partition. The command would look like this:sudo mount -o loop,offset=$((header+partition)) img_file /mnt

linuxmemes@lemmy.world•What is the most difficult problem that you have fixed in linux?
15·2 years agoNot a Linux problem per se, but I had a 128GB image disk in a unknown .bin format which belongs to a proprietary application. The application only ran on Windows.
I tried a few things but nothing except Windows based programs seemed able to identify the partitions, while I could run it in Wine, it dealt with unimplementend functions. So after a bit of googling and probing the file, it turns out the format had just a 512 bytes as header which some Windows based software ignored. After including the single block offset, all the tools used in Linux started working flawlessly.









Maybe he meant ASPD (Antisocial Personality Disorder)?
