 K900 | They basically have trusted paths for libraries | 12:58:33 |
| K900 | So you can't just LD_PRELOAD whatever | 12:58:33 |
| K900 | They originally only allowed /usr and /lib | 12:58:44 |
| K900 | But they also added /nix/store and /gnu/store and I think a couple more weird paths | 13:02:30 |

 woobilicious | Valve should just use nix instead of rolling their own container lol. | 01:20:51 |
 colemickens | so does UMU work with any Steam game? I assume the games had runtime deps on Steam (... and Steam running) ? | 05:36:33 |
| colemickens | Or is it more specifically about using the steam proton tooling for non-steam windows games? | 05:37:07 |
| colemickens | I feel like I took a year off of Linux gaming and need a new map! 🥲 | 05:37:25 |
| K900 | UMU is specifically running Proton | 05:41:05 |
| K900 | Like it's basically replicating what Steam does to run Proton | 05:41:31 |
| K900 | With pressure-vessel and stuff | 05:41:33 |
| colemickens | let me rephrase :) can I use UMU/Faugus to launch Halo: Infinite, installed via Steam, without needing Steam running? | 05:41:35 |
| colemickens | (I can take this elsewhere, also; it's certainly not NixOS specific) | 05:41:48 |
| K900 | Depends on whether the game actually talks to Steam or not | 05:42:08 |
| K900 | Most do | 05:42:08 |
| K900 | And will probably complain about Steam not being there | 05:42:08 |
| K900 | But some don't and for those it should work | 05:42:20 |
| colemickens | I see. Ok. Thanks. | 05:42:27 |
| K900 | You can also just pirate-ify the game if you're playing single player | 05:43:44 |
| K900 | By giving it a fake steam_api.dll | 05:43:44 |
| K900 | Which I will not link to here for legal reasons | 05:44:09 |
| K900 | (assuming there isn't another layer of copy protection) | 05:44:41 |
