Last night in #valheim I took another break from the Ashlands and started to try to find the Bog Witch. I read online that she was in a swamp biome, so I started looking for unexplored swamps.

I ended up exploring two locations, fighting two abominations (relatively easy with my gear), several wraiths and a whole mess of draugrs, etc. Alas no bog witch was found.

My fire mead finished brewing during my excursion so I'll probably head back into the Ashlands next time #linuxgaming #steamdeck

I've tried to run it under #Wine, but I could not make it work. The game only runs in some specific resolutions and color 16-bit color depth (which I managed to work around using Xephyr). I managed to install it under Wine and have it run. But I could not go farther than the initial screen.

So I installed #Windows 98 SE into a VM. Since I was at it, I created a #Vagrant image anyone can use. It has working display and audio drivers. Link below.

This way I (and whoever) can quickly launch a VM and install games from this era without having to deal with the quirks or Wine.

Microsoft will release a portable Xbox with ROG later this year. It will run a cut down version of windows 11. Your thoughts?

I decided to give Dishonored another chance, after all the frustation for being so bad at stealth games.

This playthrough, I chose the only stealth approach I can muster: the leave no witnesses way.

Aside from piles of corpses, there's literally NOBODY around me. And I can get all stealthy 👀. Am I doing it right?
