Wouldn't call it harder, exactly (then again, I'm most familiar with XFCE, so kinda biased here lol) since most everything is grouped together either in the settings menu or panel prefrences, and you can just drag and drop whatever you downloaded from xfce look to the desktop apperance and icon list to add them to spice up your desktop, whereas in KDE, which I love, don't get me wrong. It's a tinkerer's paradise, the settings for X, Y, and Z are kinda all over the place
We do...the problem is we're a drop in an ocean compared to the vast majority who do not, or as NightOwl put it, they do too, but they help perpetuate the lazy products AAA companies typically spew out by just buying
Agreed. To us, it's not surprising because we decided to look into it because we're either big into a series, or we got burned enough in the past. for others? It's either legit the first time they've gotten burned, or the straw that broke the camel's back and made them at least somewhat critical/wary of the media they consume.
Ah, MATE. The one DE I've never actually tried in my Distrohopping days for whatever reason (there was nothing wrong with it or anything, i just never got around to it before falling in love with XFCE). I'll take your word for it. Heck, maybe I'll tweak this to resemble MATE more if it's really "pretty much Gnome 2"
Yeah, i've seen a couple of "Unsupported" titles and I'm like "but they work fine with Proton Experimental or GE tho?" Maybe it has something to do with the ProtonDB reports, or are those two unrelated?
If i had to guess at why the downvotes, I'd say there's a failure of comprehension here.
"Great on Deck" means you can play them well on the Steam Deck with few hiccups (damn near what you get if you ran it on Windows, basically). No more, no less. Doesn't indicate that the game would feel good to play with a controller, but you CAN play it regardless. I don't have a Deck, but yeah there's a couple of games in my library that I look at the Community Controller Layouts and go "nah, that looks like a nightmare to use. I'm just gonna not be lazy and KB&M it". I'm gonna assume doing the opposite on The Deck is...not impossible, but very impractical. Also gonna assume this is your gripe VS what people are likely taking from your sentence ("it says they're playable, but they're not")
I'm inclined to agree with ya there since I have no strong feelings towards Windows 7 in particular and I've never tried earlier versions. Yeah, I can live with Windows 10 if i had no other choice or say in the matter, and it wasn't my old install (see the other parenthesis if you care to know)
The ads are on the Start menu search. They're not that bad as far as I remember, but i can see for others why'd they'd be annoying--in particular, those who paid for the software liscene already. it's the small little annoyances when it came to Microsoft's decisions (and the fact i wanna believe my Windows was just messed up from the word go...seriously, that thing was laggy as it was slow and just...strange is the best word I can describe using it, compared to other machines running Windows 10. So yeah, I already had one foot out the door as it was) and the fact I realized I had a choice that was NOT apple that moved me to Linux and it's been pretty good, considering 95% of my needs are met on Linux
Depends. what version of Windows? 10? I can agree for the most part that yeah, it's fine. Most users loved 7, I...never paid it much mind (mostly because it was good, i guess? Got nothing bad to say about it, at least) and 8 was...Windows 8.
Windows 11 tho? Eh....the UI's ok. I like it better than 10's, at least. Ish. But whose bright idea was it to limit the number of items in the context menu? Or to hide the ribbon that, again, shows you more options? Or basically force ya to make a Microsoft account to even use the thing? (there's apparantly a way to revert some of these things via messing with the Registry) Like, Windows 10 was fine like you said, dunno why 11 needed such drastic changes. And that's without mentioning ads or the habit Windows has of reverting some of the setting you set after an update (tho that was a thing since 10, tbf. Still annoying)
I meant it more in the "these guys know how to specifically do that, whereas Average Joe over there puffing up his chest and trying it unprepared is gonna go as well as you trying to evict a crackhead off some property (read: probably very badly)" but if you wanna look at it in a more cynical way, sure, that's also entirely possible. "Never do something you're good at for free" after all.
Complete opposite of my expierence lmao. Priest hardly spoke Latin during mass (even if he did, I like to imagine we'd have an inkling of what he said, spanish being our primary language and all), and would encourage everyone to read our Bibles and come to him for questions or doubts.
Pretty swell guy. I remember later having my first beer with him and my pops (well...my first beer that wasn't snuck over or swapped by my uncles and stuff during parties and get togethers. My first official beer, ya get me?)
The Fabio looking hornet demon was a hilarious, albiet terrifying mental image, but yeah as a repeat victim of the business end of a hornet, I can confirm the validity of that description and agree that they're clearly of the devil lol
It's cool! Some interesting nugget might hit ya later.
Legion is a solid film...and probably the only unanimously agreed upon good film in The Exorcist series other than the first. God, this series is like Texas Chainsaw Massacre; It barely gets a break (a break in this case being a good entry that's not THAT divisive)
It's honestly been a while since I cracked open a Bible and actually sat down to read it, so i couldn't give ya a definative answer on that (plus, I was a very poor excuse of a Catholic lol).
My opinion? it's one of the quirks Catholicism threw in when demons were incorporated into their canon.
Doubt Catholics made them up since there are depictions and writings that talk about demons in ancient mesopotamia. That they threw them in their canon and gave them their own quirks like the Romans did with the Greek Pantheon tho, I can believe. Whether it's fiction or not is irrelevant info to me tho.
I know about the Lesser Key and some "Alternative Source", i guess you can call em, texts describing Demons, but was more interested what the official canon had to say regarding demons/possessions. Based on the answers I've seen so far, it seems to be not as in depth as I thought, but what is there is very interesting IMO (i dig the animal shapes from the Torah that you brought up. From my very very limited recollection of my Catholic upbringing, they weren't given a definite shape, tho i could be very wrong...i was a bad Catholic and it's been years)
