I'm looking for a guide on how to install and play games from that girl we know using heroic launcher.

When installing Snap apps, how the heck do I find the working directory? I got DevilutionX installed, but can't figure out where my .mpq files are supposed to go.

This has been my biggest pain point in this latest attempt to escape Microsoft's grasp. The GUI just doesn't tell me where things end up, and search with Dolphin hasn't helped. 🫤

That includes posts generated by LLMs. It doesn’t matter if you “don’t have the time” or “would’ve written the same anyway”, or if “everyone’s doing it geez get with the times”.

For now it’ll also include “AI”-assisted projects that haven't had at least two months of (public, verifiable) dev time behind them.
