Agree. Its yet soviet philosophy here in heads. People were very poor and could not afford anything, so theft was welcomed, and this is one of the reasons for the collapse of the ussr.

I am very sorry to hear of your misfortune, I hope things get better for you soon.

First main thing its - Hope for better its one thing to do now for all FreeWorld.
Second main thing its - supporting of FreeWorld to Ukraine in fighting against demons of mordor.

Because I prefer to use the same operating system as all of the world's top 500 most powerful computers.

You mean SuperComuters? But SuperComuters using Linux not for Desktop but computing only?

And anyway you don't have to buy Windows at all — just download one of the official ISO images and install using that without adding a key when prompted (just select "add later"). All Windows will do is display an "Activate Windows" watermark on the desktop, remove the ability to change wallpapers after the first few days, and keep nagging you to add an activation key. The operating system will continue to update itself and stay functional in all other respects indefinitely even if you don't pay. It's just nagware these days.

You talking about 10 and 11? Because XP and 7 is blocked after while if licensed key do not entered.

Thanks to All!

But i am curious, what technically wrong with music images? Under my Windows 7 i am mounted music images and it same looks empty. May be they broken?

Innoextract works on the GOG windows installer, as I mentioned in the other thread.

Should be as easy as 'innoextract setup_quake2_quad_damage_2.0.0.3.exe', grab the extracted "app" directory, drop in yamagi binaries and play.

Thanks for useful info!

I just extracted the GOG "Quake II Quad Damage" installer, and there are 19 tracks included as .ogg.

This is 19tracks all OSTs not only from original Q2 but rouge and xatrix addons music here?

>Install it just as you would any other Q2 mod.

And what base Quake2 game are you using? Native linux or Wine or standalone Q2 engine?

Good thing thanks!

Your idea is to replace de to dwm or similar wms? And this WMs is hard to tune and its have no many useful features that have DEs. To me personally such WMs only way is unusual and uncomfortable. Or i am wrong?

Devuan go wrong way?

I don't think so. Nothing wrong with GNOME. We don't all use stone age machines and it's nice to have a polished, professional desktop in which there is actually a design principle.

FWIW I run it on a 12 year old ThinkPad X201 and it's fine, not slow at all. I have tamed it somewhat by masking half a million services but that's a systemd feature so I won't share it here.

True Linux nerd use only clean console(without GUI) GNOME and KDE(and all freesoftware) always been like monkey that repeats modern proprietary trends(why they don't invents something own?) That Linux its alternative to proprietary is good, but Linux always been in catch-up role.

My dislike for GNOME dates back to 1999 or thereabouts, when they replaced the lightning-fast (g)mc file manager with that abortion commonly known as "nautilus". I'm probably a bit biased. tongue

It's not the fault of the gnome. It's an eternal chase freesoftware to proprietary(since Unix times to MS times) trends. Why so i don`t know? Why all free gui its parody to proprietary gui?

Thanks you for opinion! Its very useful. Agree with you!
bloatware almost everywhere

Don't install a GUI at all

gui DE its habit

maybe in time I will find zen and come to the naked console;)

If anyone or anything mentions GNOME or GTK4

i am worry about GIMP i love him:) GTK4 ruins it too?
