Mint

I see Mint as the more reasonable option that keeps 98% of the advantages of Ubuntu, with less of the crazy. I was a xubuntu user a decade ago, but have been very happy with Mint xfce since I switched.

If you’re ordinary and you never get enough sleep, I have just the place for you. New York’s hottest nap club is “Off to Dreamland!” Located in the heart of Queens at the corner of Sleep Street and Sleepytime Drive, this converted mattress store park was the ceremony spot for a lengendary nap taken by Adam Conover when he was a boy. This place has everything: body pillows, comforters, blankies, cuddle buddies, sleep masks, and CPAP machines. And be sure to hit the converted traincar section and lean your head on the shoulder of MTA Chair Janno Lieber, the celebrity sleeper in residence.

“. . . and you can put so much stuff in there, you wouldn’t even know!”

“What baby” 😆

Love love Hark! A Vagrant. And a lot of the other comics are way funnier, especially the historical ones. The comics about “marauding women on bicycles” (like this one) crack me up. I still think the “strong female characters” series is one of the funniest things ever.

I wish Beaton would keep doing Hark! A Vagrant, but given what her family went through and her sister’s misdiagnosis and death from cancer, I understand why she finished it up. Her graphic novel/memoir, Ducks, was one of the best books I read last year.

100% agree with this. Dune 1 sets up the world, Dune 2 gets to tell more of a story.

apart from some Harkonnen costume choices.

Oh, man, I forgot about those. 😄 The miniseries is good, though.

Torchlight 2 and 3 are fun looting co-op experiences.

Sandersons … too much of a choir boy to match Martin’s tone

I’d agree, it’s not an ideal match. But another talented, perhaps up-and-coming writer (as Sanderson sort of was at the time) could do a good job.

Remember when GRRM was so pissed that people criticized his friend Robert Jordan for faffing around for over a decade and never finishing the Wheel of Time series? Yeah, same.

Agreed, I’m fairly impressed how many games Nintendo is still releasing for Switch very late in its lifetime.

Anti-Cheat is a bitch

Seriously, I don’t know how this one is solvable, to be honest, without major investment and support from the game companies themselves.

performance issues are definitely not universal

Agreed!

Yup, I picked it up for $7 to play with friends last year. It’s worth double that, but not $45. I still play with them sometimes but it isn’t my favorite.

Somewhat unrelated, this game has one of the worst menu systems I have ever seen. It’s astounding how unintuitive it is.

Don’t @ me too hard, but I think @luciferofastora has some good points on sound and anti-cheat. They don’t affect me, mostly because I don’t like PVP games that need anti-cheat, but they represent a huge chunk of the market and I do wish they worked better on Linux. I’m fully on Linux for my daily driver and generally have good experiences, I’m not even considering going back to Windows, I just wish things worked better for everyone.

This is 100% the weaponization of disability, amplified by people who don’t have disabilities but just don’t want to change their carbrained habits.

It looks quite usable, to be honest. I would have loved to use it back then.

the original match 3

Shariki and Bejeweled would like a word.

Pure poetry from AndyJHawk:

Like the Honda e before it, it’s a vehicle too tiny for America’s truck-shaped digestive system.

I really liked Lara Croft GO. It’s better than Hitman GO or other GO games.
