   Tried to run Lutris on nixpkgs on Ubuntu.
   
   First attempt: Downloads a GiB of stuff and unoacks it to 4 GiB, then discovers that steam 1.0.0.72 is a 404. Ok, my nixpkgs is over 4 months old apparently.
   
   Second attempt, fresh nixpkgs. Downloads 1.25 GiB, unpacks to 5 GiB. Done!
   
   Start lutris. Fonts are broken, just boxes everywhere.

     Ok run Ubuntu-Lutris on Ubuntu then. Add ppa, install 2 GiB of stuff, start. A Python script gives me the crash report dialog, but then it starts anyway!
     
     I find Roblox, the installer asks me to copy paste some Python script to a file, I do so, then some other Python script fails to GI the GnomeDesktop namespace and part of the installer crashes but some other part doesn't know it crashed and hangs instead.
     
     Maybe my home dir is too nixified. I'll play more tomorrow with barebones PATH etc.

     @clacke does Roblox work on Linux again? It stopped working several years ago (intentionally blocked I think?)

     @loke @aryak Oh my goodness it works it works.
     
     I installed grapejuice and their hacked wine directly instead of going via any of these conveniences and now I am in Build a Boat for Treasure!
     
     I should have slept two hours ago. Good night!

     @aryak @clacke would be fun if it works. I could play with the kids then. I can never bother to boot into Windows to play it.

     @clacke immutably borked, and preserved in this state for all eternity then?

     @loke you need their custom wine build iirc

     @aryak @loke Yeah I followed brinkervii.gitlab.io/grapejuic… and didn't have these issues.
     
     Cursor not moving is one of the issues listed with mainline Wine, so probably the hacked Wine solves it.
     
     I was lucky enough not to see the notice that it was supposed to work with mainline Wine, so I never tried. 😁
     
     I would hope it would go into the next mainline, but I don't know the nature of the changes.

     @clacke @aryak I got it to start, but shortly after entering a game, the mouse cursor doesn't move anymore.

     I found some documentation suggesting it's because I'm using an unpatched Wine, but at the same time it says that wine 7.0 should be fine(?) and I'm using 7.2. Did you see this?
