I asked this a while ago which is how I discovered Beyond All Reason which has been my FOSS game of choice as of late.
I’d also recommend Naev and Endless Sky (Both are based on the Escape Velocity Series, Naev is getting a 3D PBR renderer in the next release). Mindustry is good fun, actually purchased this one on steam to support the amazing developer. Extreme Tux Racer is a bit of fun and Super Tux Kart seems to get better with every update (did I mention it can run on the Nintendo Switch via homebrew!)
Edit: I forgot about 0ad and Minetest which I used to play a bit of a while back
Why update on that little battery life left… the power will return sooner or later, going without updates even for a week or two is no real problem. Hell, I update like once every 3 weeks to a month, it’s not that big of a deal.
The most enjoyable passions IMHO is when you unleash your creativity. Write with emacs. Compose music with musescore. Draw with krita. Or, better yet, do it off the screen.
I’d say wait a few days to see if glibc-eac-bin gets updated. Could the name refer to easy anti cheat perhaps? The glibc is the official library that comes with Linux distros.
Yes, glibc-eac is a special version of glibc which supports steams new linux EAC “app”, which is required for some/most eac games now, eg. Sea of thieves. I don’t have issues using just glibc-eac - which is obviously the self compiled version - as far as I know (I didn’t update in some days).
I believe so. According to the PKGBUILD of glibc-eac, it not only conflicts with glibc (the package) but also provides glibc (the dependency for other packages), which means it’s a drop-in replacement. Usually, the -bin version is exactly the same, just precompiled, so the same applies.
Btw, I forgot there was a bin version and I painstakingly compiled it every time, thanks for reminding me :3
Also: Don’t forget to install glibc-eac-locales. Gave me headaches when I forgot it.
Also: If it says “in conflict”, and asks for user input, it means it will either replace the conflicting package, as the package you install provides the same things, or that it will only remove something you manually installed (I don’t know if that’s correct though). If it would remove a dependency of something else, without replacing that with something that provides the same, it would error out noting that there are unsolvable conflicts, as far as I know. That almost never happens though, as the whole pacman and AUR ecosystem are very well balanced, a bit less on testing repos.
