  1. Does anyone listen to heavy metal/death metal anymore?

    Along Muse's line of thinking, killer song from a killer album:
  2. Anyone ready for FarCry 5?

    I thought FC3 and FC4 were awesome. I couldn't really get into Primal however. I'm sure I will purchase this new one and enjoy it. Now if we could just get a Linux port ....
  3. Why would a text editor have trouble opening a file? It's just text!

    I have leafpad running on Mint. It is available in the Software Manager. If not, just Google "Leafpad Mint" and install from the community website.
  4. One Desktop Environment to Rule Them All (Sorta)

    The default XFCE installs are pretty sparse looking. You can however make it look as nice as you want with a little work. I have tried most of the major desktop environments, and XCFE / Cinnamon are my two favorites. I want to like KDE, but it just feels slow compared to the rest. The menu...
  5. This is why Linux will never take over the desktop...

    Rubbish. the VBA capabilities of Excel make it one of the most powerful programs out there. I use LibreOffice at home, but for my work VBA+Excel is absolutely critical. Could I get the same thing done with a full development environment? Probably, but Excel is a much better fit and doesn't...
  6. Which Programming Languages for Linux

    If you are just wanting to pick a language at random to start with, Python is a pretty good choice. Python is fairly friendly to learn. If you have an actual goal in mind then you should try to pick a language based on that instead. Personally, I started with Pascal, then C, and I am now...
  7. How do you add a "new" entry in Linux?

    In Mint (Cinnamon at least) it works like this: (1) Make sure you have a "Templates" folder under your home directory. I believe this will be there by default, but if not you should make it. (2) Open the program you want to add to the "Create New Document" menu entry. For example, open Calc...
  8. Favorite Android texting app?

    Textra
  9. Charter Spectrum lawsuit: ripping customers off

    This is only tangentially related to the original question, but I find it interesting that Spectrum broadband and Time Warner (now Spectrum) broadband are different services. My neighbor has Spectrum broadband and has a 70/6 connection. I am still on my old Time Warner service and I have 20/2...
  10. Learning BSD vs Linux from scratch.

    If you really want to learn the nuts and bolts of Linux, maybe try Arch. I recently installed Arch and have built up a fully functional system. I have learned a lot about what makes Linux tick along the way.
  11. Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire Announced

    I have played through the game twice. You will have to go back to your save just prior to finishing the game if you want to play the expansions with your old party. You can't play the expansions after the final fight is over. That being said, I enjoyed playing the game more with the...
  12. Thinking of trying a new distro, any recommendations?

    Yes, it still has that Unity interface. That interface style isn't completely unique to Ubuntu either. The Gnome 3 interface feels fairly similar to me which is why I can't completely get comfortable with Fedora. I still prefer an interface with a task bar and start button, and right now...
  13. Thinking of trying a new distro, any recommendations?

    I haven't found anything too strange with the desktop version of Ubuntu 16.04. I just can't stand the interface. It has been quick and stable however from my experience, which has been commissioning quite a few systems (60 or so) for an industrial application. For my main home system I run...
  14. I think I’m done with open world games

    DA:O is an awesome game, even today. It is close to my favorite RPG of all time. It took me some time to get into Inquisition but overall I did enjoy it once I got a few hours deep. I don't feel a need to replay it however. I could probably fire up a new game of Origins right now and still...
  15. Games you finished in 2016

    Witcher 3 Tales of Maj'Eyal (a few times) Divinity Original Sin Dungeons of Dredmor (a few times) Pillars of Eternity
