Agreed, I’m not sure of why LocalSend is so well-received when I’ve literally been unable to get devices to even see each other, ever, even when they’ve been on the same network; I’ve tried across multiple networks (all devices on the same network each time). Literally ToffeeShare is way easier. PlainApp I’ve had some success with as well. Bluetooth works but not all devices take it, nor Quick Share.

I feel like the entire, boring indie game Regions of Ruin was carried by its epic music.

What about it was mediocre?!

Homeworld could have done so much more with its 3D premise, yeah, but man, that tutorial music is haunting!

I let this society kills kill my sobriety

Stoicism corrected that statement for you.

Anyone who wants to try Linux but is scared of or reluctant about anything about the process at all: talk to me! There are multiple ways to try it with zero change to your system, like Oracle VirtualBox or a USB flash drive.

have a character enact a wholly non-violent solution to the problem

They really tried that with Superman!

Ah, right, true. I’ve gotta re-watch that one, by the way!

Okay, great, thanks. I just hope that Canonical doesn’t do something like forcibly interweave a proprietary blob with a critical updated.

There comes an environmental limit, though, and computers themselves may have already been it without us realizing it, but AI use only hastens our demise: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/59966675

I can’t remember hearing any villain actually say anything like this in a while, though. Which recent movies did so? I feel like society caught on lol. The only time I can think of something sort of like this happening was in ::: spoiler Fallout, when Lucy spared the Ghoul in saying, “I’ll never be like you,” but even then, the villain never said anything; it came from the protagonist of her own accord. Personally, I thought that was one of the most profound scenes in the entire show in a positive way. :::

Thanks, I didn’t know that. But then my question is: how dependent is the Mint team on Canonical’s updates to Ubuntu? Is it like Waterfox vs. Firefox?

I was just reading through /r/NobaraProject myself, haha! I may try to stick with Mint Cinnamon for now, though, since I’ve already got it installed…

That is a bit of a different case; Syncthing-Fork 2.0 was still under Catfriend1. From what I remember reading of Reddit banter, the pass-on was legitimate but just awkwardly done, to sum it up.

Pop!_OS was personally a terrible experience for me, even when not on NVIDIA. It seemed great until I actually tried it lol, but I’d recommend almost literally anything else.

Unfortunately, I just read a whole bunch of comments in another post about how Canonical trends so anti-consumer (to Microsoft-like levels) that multiple people are advocating against Mint and even Ubuntu entirely, so now my pickle is rescuing the relatives I just rescued from Windows and OS X from Mint, which they’ve been getting settled in lol. Ugh.

Yeah, Mint makes the screen of an old iMac that I put on it go bonkers whenever it wakes up from “suspension” (which is apparently the Linux term for sleep); it becomes extremely bright with horizontal lines until the machine is restarted. I guess I could have tried to diagnose that… hmm.

Huh, so must they all be laptops, or desktops with the owners being able to transport all peripherals to the site of the “party?” Sounds really cool.

FYI, I’ve been on 2.0 since a few weeks after it released and I literally noticed no difference at all. If no one told me about the update, I would have had no idea that it had applied; everything has been running identically to how it was before. I think it’s safe to take up.
