    1.so your library PCs run ubuntu? that’s cool, my uni uses win11.

    2.did you mount the USB stick and then add the directory with neofetch in it to path? Or did you do something else?

      All government owned libraries in Oslo Norway use Ubuntu. I was originally trying to install hyfetch as python was installed. Pip was not, so I tried running the setup script from the source code but it failed as it relies on some pip dependencies. I did find the neofetch script in the source code, and I ran it straight from the usb drive. I did not set the usb directory with neofetch to path as I don’t want to configure things that might break the pc for other people.

    Neofetch is written in bash, you should be able to source it without installing it, doesnt even need to be executable

        I’ll try that next time :)

        I don’t know how hard it would be to set up proton without any administrator rights, but it might be interesting to try and run crysis 3 on it too.
