Starcraft! I really think Starcraft Brood War is a better, more balanced game. The quality of life changes in Starcraft 2 make it so hard to go back to playing Brood War. I don’t know if I can adjust back to only selecting a lot amount of units or needing to click on each building to build stuff or not having smart-casting and good pathing.

When I fully switched 2 years ago, I thought I’d try doing all my gaming in Linux and was really anxious wondering which and how many games I wouldn’t be able to play. Imagine my surprise when all of them ran. I haven’t found a single game I couldn’t get running. Hell, I even beat one I couldn’t get running in Windows! That being said there’s a bug preventing VR from working that I’m a little sad about. Apparently Steam only supports Ubuntu, I use Endeavour.

Bash was the first language I learned, got pretty decent at it. Now what happens is I think of a tiny script I need to write, I start writing it in Bash, I have to do string manipulation, I say fuck this shit and rewrite in Python lol

Rule 8? This has nothing to do with PC gaming. Glad he got banned though, fuck 'em.

Saar, why did you redeem?

Yes, I am. Any other questions?

I use SyncMe which synchronizes smb shares to your phone. It’s great once you have it set up, but it does take a little setup. Gotta have shares and whatnot.

I wrote my own rss reader for youtubue, so it does this digging for me when I paste in a channel link :)

Yeah exactly. I replaced my dead NUC with an Asus AMD mini PC. That replacement now has a 382 day uptime :)

Protip: Youtube channels have RSS feeds, they’re just buried in the source of the page. Ctrl-U and then Ctrl-F title=“RSS”

Starcraft, Starcraft 2 has ruined me with multi-building-selection, the clunkiness, no smart casting, selecting more than a handful of units at a time.

Hah that Konsole theme is sick as fuck, wp my dude!

Dude play Black Mesa! It’s a modern remake of the original Half Life but with a new and improved Xen at the end. I played Opposing Force and Blue Shift back in the day but barely remember them. I’d love to replay those games.

Edit: https://store.steampowered.com/app/362890/Black_Mesa/ It’s on sale for $5 right now. Also it runs decently in Linux, when I played it would crash every 20 minutes or so in some sections, I think there is/was a memory leak or something.

No, you’re not understanding it correctly. The issue is that kernel-level DRM is a terrible thing on Windows, the fact that it doesn’t work on Linux is also a side effect.

Brand protection partners is a much friendlier way to say bloodsucking lawyers.

AliExpress will somehow find a way to ship you a mat that doesn’t work after waiting 2 months for it to arrive.

Inscription! FTL faster than light! Dicey dungeons!

Does your voice calling work ok in Firefox? My video calls start off ok but always seem to drop out after a short bit. I wonder if it’s Firefox or my 30 privacy and security extensions lol

It sucks, it doesn’t work properly in Firefox, so I have keep it open in a Chromium window too. This morning I saw new messages in my Chromium but not in Firefox until I reloaded the page. I wonder what other information it’s keeping from me.

Install it, don’t stress and have fun 😊

I switched someone recently (she installed mint instead of kubuntu that recommended) and soon after exclaimed that it’s just like windows. I think she assumed everything would be in a terminal lol, now she gaming in steam. Anyway you’ll probably find it more similar than different. The one big difference is that we don’t download and run software from the Internet, we have something like an app store where everything is vetted and trustworthy.
