I got away with using Liberation Serif instead of Times New Roman btw

I really wonder how many professors that mandate a font can actually even notice the difference, you would think they would choose something less ugly than Times New Roman if they could

I like how their AI generated logo doesn't even spell the name right

The stupid paid texture packs and maps and skins on the marketplace

Minecraft pocket edition has microtransactions but it only ever pushes them on the menu never actually in game so maybe that's a compromise? Also it's simple but this port of Simon Tatham's portable puzzle collection is pretty good and has no ads or microtransactions https://f-droid.org/en/packages/name.boyle.chris.sgtpuzzles/

Escape puts you in normal mode, visual mode is v

Gonna be honest there are few things I would like less than the criminalizing of my main way of keeping in contact with people. I genuinely think doing that would cause a spike in suicide rates because there are so many people who would just suddenly be completely isolated from having any community

Maybe like nonreligious christian? I feel like the word christian doesn't inherently imply actual religion even though it's usually used that way, the same way identifying as a satanist can mean many different things. I'm neither a theologist nor a linguist though so maybe everything I said is nonsense

"Hit in head by bullet"

What an odd way to say shot in the head

I played so much supertuxkart in middle school, then got pretty good at figuring out how to configure wine to make everything work in high school, and now as an adult wine has gotten so good that I just click on whatever I want to play on steam and 90% of the time it just works flawlessly, I don't even always remember which games are native and which are running in wine these days.

Anyway yeah, using linux never made me spend less time playing games

I say you've won an operating system once you've contributed code that got into its kernel

Yeah but I bet google's one will have lots of cool features like being harder to use and not supporting becoming root and requiring google play services for no discernable reason

I tried searx for a while but, at least with the instance I used, the results were awful quality and there were a lot of reliability issues. Do you have an instance recommendation?

We need someone to write down a step by step explanation of whatever the cycle of masturbation is

Yeah I really don't get what people are talking about, I've been using wayland basically exclusively since 2022 and I haven't had any difficult to fix problems. For screensharing in the few things that don't support the portal I just use OBS' virtual webcam and everything else has just worked perfectly, or at least with way less issues than I ever had with X

I would pay money to watch a drag reenactment of bible stories that would be so funny

I choose exclusively based on mascot and I don't know any distributions with mascots other than opensuse so I use opensuse

USB 3.x killing thunderbolt wouldn't make any sense, USB 4 is based on the Thunderbolt 3 spec. I would agree that USB 4 will replace Thunderbolt but only because it is Thunderbolt

I woke up at noon because I tried to drive for 12 hours on 4 hours of sleep a couple days ago and then had to get up early every day until today. Don't do that it turns out

Did firewire really flop? Lots of devices from the early 2000s have it and it works really well. Everyone used it to get video from cameras and using it for target disk mode on macs is amazing

For text editing, kate is really good and has like zero learning curve and it has tons of features like really good lsp integration but can also just be a normal text editor if you don't want all the fancy stuff.

(But also I promise learning vim isn't as hard as you think it is, you can learn the basics in like an hour or two and there are so many things it makes so much easier than other editors)
