Literally the only reason I keep a Windows machine around is to run proprietary software that I simply can’t replace, like games and software suites for specific hardware.
Thanks to WINE/Proton, I can’t even remember the last time I turned on that Windows machine. I think it might’ve been years. I should probably turn it on just to cycle the battery (notebook) a little and run updates.
Are you telling me wine is not emulation?
It IS an emulation. Wine only allows us to run windows applications not windows itselfWrong
btw the joke is that Wine literally stands for “Wine Is Not an Emulator”
That’s hilarious, I couldn’t have been more obviously wrong
That’s not what emulation is. Emulators imitate hardware. WINE receives Windows system cells and returns the appropriate responses.
My fault, I genuinely thought wine was an imitation. Honestly I don’t use it much
It’s okay, Comrade Sharkfucker
So it emulates system calls?
No, it translates system calls. Very different.
Ew no what the fuck why would I want Teams to run in my brain it’s bad enough on a Windows desktop.
This must we why WINE never worked for me. I tried running it without drinking alcohol first
in their mind
Fake. Most windows applications are not open source.
It is by Wine alone I set my .exe’s in motion
It is by prefix creation that DLLs acquire form
The registry acquires keys
The keys hopefully don’t cause warnings
It is by Wine alone I set my .exe’s in motion
How else would you even do it?
Can confirm, I’m penguin and do Wine all the time!
How come there’s no peach wine?
