I’m afraid that’s kinda just how it is… with the dating apps at least. If you’re on a dating app, you’re a disposable swipe. I had 3+ dates with this girl recently, and I was starting to think that this could be a thing, and then se fue. Silence. Not even a thanks. Anyways, that’s kind of how it is apparently.

So here’s my recommendation instead. Go and do shit. With other people. Don’t try to date, try to open up the possibility for a date to happen. And then don’t chase it, let it happen. Eg, go and learn salsa dancing. (As an introvert, it was a real hard thing for me to do (understatement), but it was so worth it.) Or join a hiking group, or Dnd, or pub quiz, or just anything that gets you into different social circles, meeting new people, where you aren’t a disposable swipe, you’re a team mate.

Also, don’t read into other people. Sometimes people get busy with their lives, or have a crisis, a million reasons why they ghost you. It’s not you, it’s them. Girls don’t take apps seriously either. They are expecting 99% of douchebags, and they would be 98% correct.

Final tip, get a gym buddy. That does wonders for ADHD, depression, confidence, energy, etc etc etc.

Tl;dr, apps suck, go get involved socially, work on yourself.

I don’t have a house big enough to store a ton of DVDs, and the Playstation Digital Edition solidified that we don’t have to buy physical media anymore. So the only option is piracy.

They just want us to pirate everything right? Like, that is the only logical response to this.

Open the SVG and have a look at what’s happening during boot.

journalctl -b will give you some more info too. If you’re using grub to boot (probably in /boot/grub/grub.cfg), you can change the loglevel and add the udev option to get a bunch more info. Helped me with a random issue recently. Here’s mine for an example:

### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/10_linux ###
menuentry 'Arch Linux' --class arch --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'gnulinux-simple-a96b3354-70dd-45ed-8c6c-95171e9f1e82' {
	load_video
	set gfxpayload=keep
	insmod gzio
	insmod part_gpt
	insmod ext2
	search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root a96b3354-70dd-45ed-8c6c-95171e9f1e82
	echo	'Loading Linux linux ...'
	linux	/boot/vmlinuz-linux root=UUID=a96b3354-70dd-45ed-8c6c-95171e9f1e82 rw  loglevel=3 udev.log-priority=debug 
	echo	'Loading initial ramdisk ...'
	initrd	/boot/amd-ucode.img /boot/initramfs-linux.img
}

Recreate the crash and check the logs. Bottles should be writing logs, as well as the OS.

My guess is that Steam installs some extra dependencies which are also used by Bottles.

I’m not a Gentoo expert in the slightest, so I can’t really comment on how to find out what extras your package manager installs.

While you’re at it, add Tamriel Rebuilt! There’s a huge amount of progress made and it basically doubles the playable map with quests, npcs, etc!
