While trying to install and run an application called Zone Builder (a mod-maker for SRB2) through Wine on Xubuntu Linux 22.04, I get the following errors:

env WINEPREFIX="/home/cran/.wine" wine-stable C:\\windows\\command\\start.exe /Unix /home/cran/.wine/dosdevices/c:/users/Public/Desktop/Zone\ Builder.lnk

Is there anyway for me to get this Windows application running? Is there something else I need to install? Any help would be much appreciated.

Zone Builder is not listed at winehq, so I don't think you can get much help here.

Check with `https://www.winehq.org`. Not all Windows programs are available through `wine`. This is not a Ubuntu problem, this is a `wine` problem.

You can run a Windows virtual machine (in principle you can use Windows 7 trial version without connecting it to the internet, and assign 1 GB RAM to the virtual machine. If you have a powerful computer, you can also use Windows 10), and run this program there.

Okay, in that case I'll just make a separate partition in my SSD or make a VM for Win7. I'm trying to also do some YouTube editing with Vegas so VM might be my best option.

Try: `apt-cache search SRB2` to see if there's a Ubuntu package for you.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
