Just putting an opinion out there, I don’t know how widely liked it is. Quorn was not a good alternative (I say this purely based on personal taste).

Started eating it in 2010, but haven’t touched it since 2019 with all the other alternatives that you can easily get now.

Coles branded seitan was really our favourite but they discontinued it.

Anyway, the amount of stuff I always had to add to Quorn to make it taste alright… what a time.

But yeah, I’m a meat eating guy and my partner is vegetarian, but for a while now I’ve been mixing it up with fake meats to try and eat less red meat.

Yes, with Mandriva. I had just switched from 98 to Xp and was like “No, no, no, this sucks!”.

Mandriva looked so nice in comparison. But no internet, it just wouldn’t connect and I didn’t know how to troubleshoot it.

Local shows. I used to go to 3 or 4 a week.

I stopped doing that around 2017 because I was getting too tired. More like two or three a month.

None anymore though. I have kids now and I moved away, there’s no venues out here.

By “concerts” do you mean a big production in a stadium or theatre/hall with seating and tickets are $80/person, that kind of thing? I’ve never been to one.

The people in the fuckcars community probably. They talk like this all the time.

I’ll never understand this sentiment that we’re all supposed to move into the same neighbourhood that we work, or walk over 70km to get to our workplace?

With how reliable and useless AI is, it would probably just rename the file with .png on the end.

I think you’ll find nearly every significant FOSS project will have American contributors software in its development. Typically, anyone who can code and wants to contribute can do so.

Mint didn’t really see any sort of popularity until around 2010 as I remember.

I’m aware it’s initial release was earlier (surprised it was exist in 06!), but the reality of those times is that Ubuntu was still building itself up let alone Mint getting traction yet.

I didn’t know these two girls because they were a few years older, but I knew other kids who did know them. Wasn’t good.

We’d grab our bikes and ride across town. If they saw our bikes were gone they knew we’d be back later.

After the abduction and murder of two local girls, this wasn’t so accepted anymore. Kids were still out and about, but you’d get grilled about where you go, who you’re with, where are you coming home. You were supposed to be at someone’s house, mum would call and make sure that’s where you were. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bega_schoolgirl_murders

I don’t see any kids out around town anymore now though. Just the ones that walk from the bus stop to their house after school. That might just say more about todays youth culture though.

Ubuntu, Knoppix and MEPIS? I first used Ubuntu in 2006, but it was still very immature then. I didn’t really know much about any other Debian derivatives.

The other big one that was popular was Mandrake but that was rpm based, and a bit later PClinuxOS which was Mandrake based. I didn’t think Debian derivatives were much of a thing then aside from Ubuntu.

I love it. Even GEMS stuff people always complain about - Chakan has some of my favourite vgm ever.

To me, the SNES was terrible sounding. Awful muffled music, or some really good composition but then the SNES puts so much reverb on it that’s all you could hear. It’s not all bad, but mostly. Especially the Final Fantasy games sounded very nice.

Any project is beneficial if someone is passionate about doing it.

The “this person shouldn’t work on this project, they should work on something that benefits me” line is selfish as hell.

If the projects you see aren’t the projects you want, then DIY. But don’t tell people they wasted their time because you don’t want to use their software.

I just opened Bottles and clicked to run the executable. Not quite, I manually set the launch options to disable video and set 1024x768.

But aside from that, clicked run executable and I’m in and playing:

EDIT: without disabling the videos, they play but you can’t skip them and then the game crashes afterwards. But from what I heard that also occurs on windows? It was a windows user saying it needs to launch with no video.

For posterity, the launch options for LEGO racers under wine: -novideo -horzres 1024 -vertres 768

Is that an actual quote from the show? My mum used to watch it, but I never did.

Are you implying that no younger bands are introspective, or share their thoughts in the world via their songs, because your favourite genre isn’t popular?

Seems like a very bad take.

Old games are significantly easier to run.

I look up old games I want to play and see just complaints about how hard it is to run it, links to defunct forums where someone has once posted a modded .exe to improve stability in post-NT systems, etc.

Often when I run those using wine the game just starts up.

I don’t care about faceball 2000 but I want to see Uncle Derek, so I will absolutely watch it

Jesus fucking christ.

It does not.

Currently supports Stardew Valley.

Next in their roadmap is Cyberpunk 2077, Mount & Blade 2, and Baldurs Gate 3.

I want a fan of the first one, but I really liked Before The Storm.

This one I didn’t quite like as much, but I thought it was really good. And I think your review is spot on too.
