The problem with that is that is hard to experiment with too
Test devices get banned constantly, and the companies behind those systems really don't like other companies trying to poke around it

You got no idea how much some people have been malding over this over Reddit
r/pcmasterrace on reddit is absolutely coping right now and members are attacking Linux users on sight
On the Chinese only servers they forbsure don't allow it
Shows how useless those "image poisoning" services some artists boast about really are
You might have to due to licensing, if the technology is patented. I don't know about this
There is no money being made here? This is foss software
Anything we don't find cool and want to lightly demonize, pretty much
I cannot take this guy seriously when in my language his surname means "bad breath"
Where I live they always call because we don't have mail boxes, so they have to give the parcel personally and they call to see if you are home. If you aren't they don't ship it to you that day.
I got banned from Aliexpress for refusing to provide a phone number to a web page fully in chinese, and they didn't specify why I needed to despite them claiming a phone number isn't necessary to order

While I am still a beginner in collecting, the commons pile is getting quite large!
I wanted to get a couple of these tins, they look cool. But how many common can they hold?
As they have only two packs inside I fear too few.
But maybe the question of "how many" it's actually quite bad. Just having a picture from the side can actually say much.
Backyard Baseball 2001 is immediately crashing in Wine on a black screen: https://paste.debian.net/1294999
This is on a dedicated 32-bit prefix with DirectPlay only installed via winetricks. The prefix is set to claim to be Windows 98. The exact same disc is confirmed to work if mounted in 86box (running Windows 2000)
Just before the crash, a printer error is thrown. The printer works fine in Linux, but such an error shouldn't crash the game like this. And also, printing is not an integral part of the game (you can print an image of your team, but its optional.)
The game appears as Platinum rated on Wine AppDB: https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=9088
I will add here. Apparently, I have fixed it by finding a workaround. Shutting down cups with sudo service stop cups has made the game run.
Wrestling MPire Remix (2008, DirectX 7) has terrible font rendering on Wine, making small text unreadable. Tried WineD3D, dxWrapper (with dx7 to dx9 conversion) then DXVK, DxWnd (suggested by the developer for Windows 10), dgvoodoo. Also tried enabling font antialiasing via winetricks.
How its supposed to look like (image from internet, of the character editor while editing a referee):
To allow modern windows to run legacy applications a lot of caution is given to updating libraries or fully new ones are given while keeping the older ones. Also static builds are more common on Windows, or come bundled with a copy of the required libraries as .dll files.
libexample1. It works, the library is available too.libexample2gets released that drastically changes how the library works. The program doesn't work on this version. The older release of the library then get's abandoned.Aplication could have still worked if it came bundled with its own copy of libexample1 and of its dependencies, or was statically linked.
An example of this is Nero, a software kit for managing CD/DVD disc media. They made a build of some of their tools for Linux, meant to run on Debian 7. This builds were an experiment and got abandoned because of the very few users it had. Yet, these tools still work perfectly fine on Debian 12 despite being based on ancient libraries because it bundles all its requirements as a copy in its own proprietary blob.
I talked about caution on updating libraries on Windows. You can find many deprecated methods in any native Windows library that will likely never be removed from the library binaries, as many applications require it. The new, better and more feature rich method is given a different name instead, and is pointed out in the documentation for the older method.
Projects like FUSE are very nice for this, where an AppImave bundle of prebuilt binaries is given and can potencially not only be ran everywhere that can run FUSE but also in the future too.
