Cevilia (she/they/…)

40 year old she/her or they/them or any pronoun. I’m a woman… I think. I pretend to be an elf on the Internet. I’m mostly attracted to femininity.

  • I switched from Windows to Linux last year. I’m typing this on Ubuntu 25.04. All the games I have ever tried to play work, and work well, with very few exceptions.

    Steam just works, all I had to do was go into its settings, the Compatibility, and enable Steam Play for all titles. I set the default compatibility tool to “Proton Experimental” and haven’t needed to change it. Even for the titles that say they don’t work on Linux.

    Heroic Games Launcher handles my Epic and GOG libraries, and again, everything just works. Epic is not friendly to Linux users, and the only exceptions have been a couple of free games on Epic where the developers have gone out of their way to break Linux compatibility. Red Dead Redemption is the only game I would like to play, but haven’t figured out how to get it to work. Most of my Epic games work, including complicated ones like Train Sim World 5. All of my GOG games work without exception.

    I use a program called Bottles to handle edge cases. It’s a little trickier to get set up, but once you’ve got it running, again, stuff just works.

    Hope this is helpful. I’m happy to answer questions.



  • I take issue with the phrase “landlords don’t need to lift a single finger”

    I’m in the process of selling my house (in the UK) right now so I can move to somewhere cheaper. We have people coming round to view it on maybe a twice- or thrice-weekly basis. I don’t even know their names. The estate agent (American: “realtor”) handles all of that. I just get a phone call telling me they’ve got someone who wants to come and view at X date and time, all I have to do is say yes or no then arrange to not be home. It’s all included in the frankly breathtaking sum I’m paying the estate agent.

    I can’t imagine rental properties are different in any meaningful way.
