minus-squareArchAengelus@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·1 year agoI haven’t tested those myself, but wine has excellent 32 bit compatibility in general. If it’s on the list at wine hq, then it probably works
minus-squarejust_another_person@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down3·edit-21 year agoYes, if you’re on 32-bit hardware. It’s unlikely you are. Backwards compatible binary execution should be fine.

minus-squarejust_another_person@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down7·1 year agoGames aren’t an issue. If you are still in a world where your local machine is a dev environment, that’s a different story. Sorry.
minus-squareCoreidan@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5arrow-down2·1 year agoYes games very much are an issue. You are naive and ignorant if you think Linux can play every single game without hang ups. For example if you play iRacing you don’t have much of a choice but to be on windows. You people telling others to get on Linux are tone deaf as fuck.
minus-squareasudox@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·edit-21 year agoI agree. While I still think Linux is superior overall, software compatibility is mostly about the market share, so Windows is the best for gamers.
