This wasn't a controversial opinion, but the groupthink has collectively decided it is now.

RTD2 has been, generally, really good. Yeah the last episode kinda sucked, but mostly the ending. Which sounds like they were stuck between a rock and a hard place on that one. Really excited to see what's up with Billie though.

Also Sutekh's redesign totally works. Omega's redesign was pretty stupid though.

I do try.

Every single former co-worker has ghosted me at this point and even my friends have basically taken a "Hahaha, for sure mate, for sure, hey have you guys ever changed the conversation?" attitude when I bring up connecting me with people.

People suck lol.

Cool. I mean I haven't been able to get past a single 10-minute "I just want to go over the job with you and collect some basic information" phone interview in 6-months.

But ya know. Another 6,000 people on the market is cool too.

I hope they take a shot at written content again. It's less a gaming website and more of a podcast network at this point.

Debian gets feature updates significantly slower than other distros, instead it focuses on insuring stability and security. It's rock solid.

Linux Mint is actually based on Ubuntu (which itself is derived from Debian), so for the most part the two are fairly similar. There are a few key differences but for someone learning Linux you don't need to worry about them. Pick one of them, get your feet wet, and then google the differences to see if you want to switch.

After all, endless Distro hopping is a right of passage for all fledgling Linux users! :)

I want to learn a Distro for fun.

Are you just using this laptop to dip your toes into Linux and see if you like it? I would recommend Debian + XFCE. It's lightweight, it prioritizes stability over new features, and it's a fairly easy UI for a newbie to understand. Alternatively Linux Mint MATE Edition might be worth a try. It's also lightweight but is a bit more "up to date" than Debian feature wise.

Oh they finally fixed the bloody dock. I used it ages ago when it was still oval and those square icons looked terrible on it. This is much better.

Have they given any updates on HDR support? I remember them mentioning years back that they planned it for the final release but I've not heard anything since.

I actually restarted halfway through because I leveled up so much that every enemy (even animals) were miserable to fight.

I realized you only leveled up when you slept so I just never slept. Game was way easier.

They also don't have to sign it.

Maybe I've just used MacOS so long that I'm out of touch, but installing unsigned applications is effectively a mild annoyance.

I never got to run BeOS (well...when it was modern), but it's really depressing just how insanely better it was than the competition. Ditto Amiga.

I like how they show a thin sliver of something that looks like a standard terminal output instead of a screenshot of what this actually looks like on your desktop.
