ah too bad. Maybe somebody will at some point… before 2057.

Well. there are wiki pages with info about Lutris etc. like: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lutris

But since I’m the author of WineGUI, I’m not allowed to create: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WineGUI (currently it just redirects to wine instead… bleh). Stupid Wikipedians people.

Here you have the full page:

'''WineGUI''' is a [[graphical frontend]] for the [[Wine (software)|Wine]] software [[compatibility layer]] which allows [[Linux]] users to install [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]]-based Software as well as [[video games]] for [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]].

WineGUI can be used under [[Linux]] operating systems; deb, rpm and tar prebuild packages are provided.<ref>{{cite web

==Internals==
WineGUI is fully developed using the [[C++]] programming language and [[Gtkmm]] ([[GTK]] C++ wrapper) GUI-toolkit.

In some cases WineGUI rely on [[Winetricks]] to configure the Wine bottles. The latest Winetricks release will be retrieved automatically. 

Each "Windows Machine" in WineGUI has it's own Wine bottle (thus a different WINEPREFIX).

WineGUI is very responsive, due the fact that bottle (re)configurations are done in a multi-threaded manner. Also the GTK GUI natively integrates into most common [[Linux distributions]], matching the user's theme preferences.

Currently, WineGUI is relying on the Wine version that is installed on the host machine. However there are plans to support other Wine versions as well as other various Wine forks<ref>{{cite web

You can also run honeypots… Even at home, if you can configure your VM and network securely. Like this: https://github.com/telekom-security/tpotce

You could lurk users/bots into hacking your honeypot and then report it to let’s say: https://www.abuseipdb.com/

Yea, please create a wiki page about it. Since I’m not allowed to -,-

AI is the biggest problem here

What about WineGUI? https://gitlab.melroy.org/melroy/winegui

Crazy!

Agreed honeypots are maybe a good thing.

That “Foundation” is just founded by Microsoft: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.NET_Foundation. And .NET framework like the runtime and everything in mainly written in the C# language: https://github.com/dotnet/runtime.

You don’t fool me.

.io is just too big to fail.

.NET & C# is still all coming from Microsoft. Since I don’t use Microsoft products or Windows, I never liked C#. I know there are now maybe open-source and support under Linux, I will never forget. I will never forgive. NO!

For the people who doesn’t get it (I notice your /s, so you do get it): It’s has a hidden joke. Mate can also mean “friend”. So “Welcome to Linux Mint mate!” can mean two things at the same time. Hence my reply: “Maybe Cinnamon mate!”, where “Cinnamon” refers to “Linux Mint Cinnamon”, but mate just refers to friend/buddy. But Mate can also mean MATE, a classic desktop environment for Linux Mint.

.NET? … yea no … if you really need a CMS, try https://ghost.org/

Maybe Cinnamon mate!

Welcome to Linux Mint mate!

I assume people will actually leave to other platforms, maybe Ghost, maybe Hugo or Jekyll.

Have you tried static site generators like Hugo?

Luckily I moved to Hugo static site generator 3 years ago… peweff… I love PHP, but boy Wordpress was going down hill back then. And still is to this day. Introducing “features” nobody asked for. And at the same time makes your site slow.
