Never have seen any .exe that logs anything. They're literally black boxes.

Got to love the installer that requires a GUI

And it helpfully installs a scareware antivirus that changes your default search engine so you don't have to go through the trouble!

Debugging requires hard liquor.

I've found that 3 beers over an hour period is my sweet spot for debugging. But I would definitely need liquor to debug wine.

If I had to pick bugs out of my wine I would probably also switch to drinking liquor instead

Tried to debug a flatpak

downloads 6GB of devel stuff, tries to open a file in gdb, cries

Finds out it is a kernel bug.

Tries to get debug logs, even though that stuff is disabled "fOr sEcUrItY hArDeNinG"

(Kernel 6.13 is a mess)

.13

Well there's your problem.

(Not 13 specifically. Just the odd numbered sub-version in general. But 13 if you're superstitious, I guess.)

Lol

Btw the issue was fixed upstream, Arch and Fedora have updates

"Is this 'Critical Error' the reason for the crash, or just another ill-labeled exception?"

I love WINE and it's forks, but man, how can any program produce so many errors during optimal operation? (A rhetorical question, as I believe we all know the tragicomedic reason being Microsoft)

I'm more of a beer person myself.
