Nope. No VPN. I left out the strangest part because it sounds schizophrenic, too. Haha. I closed out the Arabic message and took a screenshot. As soon as I took the screenshot my phone went into standby mode, just like when your phone dies. Black screen with spinning wheel but for probably 15-20 seconds. The audio never stopped, though. When my screen came back my phone did a strange sort of jutter that immediately reminded me of what a phone would do when you sent an email maybe 8-10 years ago. It’s hard to explain but do you remember when older phones would almost freeze for a millisecond while it processed and sent the email? Same sort of thing. And the cherry on top was that my phone wouldn’t actually take the screenshot haha. I hate to sound paranoid but I clearly triggered some sort of security red flags. Oh well. Makes me wonder though.

Haha thank you. Strange. I wonder why Arabic.

 

Also, the words are not selectable for a copy/paste translation. Everything else in the image is but even the Google next to the Arabic can’t be highlighted.

Weird. I haven’t going a single non-Celtics fan who wants them to win. They knew they were losing that game. Win it at home. Monday is going to be the loudest game in history.

 

I’m new to this and have been trying to get Fallout NV to run on my Chromebook Plus. I had Fallout 3 running great but at some point I did something so that FO3 fails to launch.

Can I do something like a fresh install? I don’t care about losing data/ games.

ahhhhh I get ya. I didn't realize that the +Add had a "Search Lutris Website" option. I have it downloading right now. Thanks.

Hmmm yeah maybe I should. I've been enjoying Lutris quite a bit but if Heroic gets it to work, who cares I guess. I can do the research but do you know if Heroic also does all the work of extracting and running files? Through Wine I'd assume?

Thank God I didn't go all-in on Linux haha. This is already a pain.

Hmmm I’ll see if I can work that out. I’m a bit unfamiliar with all of this but would I save the game download to a folder within lutris and then do the manual install as you mentioned?

Wow. Day one on here and it’s already 1000x more helpful than Reddit. What a piece of crap that platform is now haha. “That game is for windows and even if could get it running, it wouldn’t be playable on a Chromebook” after not reading the body of my post.

Anyway, thank you. I’ll try that today.
