That ship, my friend, has already sailed.

The only good musicals (where people start singing for no reason) that I actually love are Blues Brothers and Monty Python’s Holly Grail.

I’d watch it if it was a heavy dark drama. A musical? I think not.

Remember when HP made great printers? I still have an old HP Laserjet 1100 in use. When that one dies, I don’t think I’ll be buying any other printer.

A man does not decorate his cave.

Let me be the first to say “meh”.

That may be so, but it is the only software that does whip the llama’s ass.

Two can play that game. I bet it is possible to create an AI tool that generates and posts Mario pictures faster than they can take them down. Why you’d want to do that I don’t know.

Army Moves, Navy Moves, or any other old Dynamic Software game. You’d have to be very skilled to get out of the first stage.

I’m fairly certain that there’s a What If video on this by the XKCD guy, Randall Munroe.

I genuinely laughed out loud. Thanks for that.

Good, this timeline is getting too weird for me.

Rat Race, The Big Lebowski, The Blues Brothers, Mars Attacks, Constantine, any Riddick, any Resident Evil, any Alien, any Matrix, any Predator, Equilibrium, Gattaca, District 9, and a lot of others I can’t remember at the moment because I’m quite drunk.

My mom (85) has been using Xubuntu for some 10 years now. She uses Facebook and Gmail and plays card and puzzle games. She had no prior contact with computers, and learned it mostly by herself.

Just give thema stable solid distro. It will make their and your life easier.

I can confirm it works as advertised, has very low maintenance and good performance.

I use it for gaming with Steam, Heroic, Lutris and a bunch of emulators, web browsing, some light development and home lab.

I have too many Half-life games and mods installed and refuse to remove them to make room for other, larger, games.

Now I will have to try the bucket%.

So… not a Tetris fan, are you?

Some games give you a story that sticks with you and you love them for that (Half-Life, To The Moon, Bioshock Infinite). Some give you an experience that sticks with you but no story to speak of (like Doom and Doom II, which I still play).

What I dislike is having to deal with people in my games. I already do that in reality, thank you very much.

To me games are about escaping reality.

I’ve been doing that for years. I genuinely do not know how to fix Windows anymore. Took a while for my family and friends to accept since I “work with computers” but now they don’t automatically come to me when Windows breaks.

No. You can layer ext4 with LVM and LUKS to get a lot of features (but not all) that you get with BTRFS or ZFS. FAT is not suitable for anything other than legacy stuff.

That has been a pain point for a long time, along with signing and verifying digital signatures in PDF documents in Linux.

Adobe is up there along with Nvidia on my top of shitty companies that actually hinder Linux adoption by ignoring it.
