Having been a user for ages, my Linux experience has been all over the place ranging from near flawless to not even able to boot. It’s got its positives, but it’s no second coming. Like anything, there’s no real sense in defending something dead (in the classic sense). It’s a thing at the end of the day. Spend your energy on things that make you happy.

Oh my gosh finally! I can enjoy the vector experience! I’ve always felt this was missing from KDE. I would show my friends all the benefits of Linux, but when I showed them by wasting approximately 1-2 minutes, you could embiggen your mouse cursor to absurd proportions, their eyes lit up unlike anything before. They wanted it the moment they knew the potential of infinite cursor sizing.

But I often made the amateur mistake of embiggening a few pixels too far and their delight would rapidly plunge into disappointment as they came to the realization that it was simply scaling up a raster render of the cursor in a lazy post-processed Easter egg.

They all leave the room in a huff, sending my attempts to reach out directly to voicemail, unanswered. But this. This will change everything. Thank you KDE. This is what we had all been waiting for.

Can confirm. All of my local business jobs were gotten by talking directly to the owner. This is easiest with production jobs where they’re already used to talking directly with the customer.

Most small production jobs can train someone to be useful in just a day or two and can teach the rest over time. It’s not as much of an impossible idea as it’s made out to be, but this strategy will almost never work in a place where the owner or at least production manager isn’t used to talking to the customer.

This was the first game I played with raytracing and they nailed it first try. I don’t think I’ve seen anyone else use it so well yet. There are so many scenes that look like promotional renders, but then you can just go walking around in it.

Not to mention an amazing story I wasn’t at all prepared for. We could definitely use more games like it.

Our chemistry teacher warned us about this stuff. She told us that if you get it on you, don’t hesitate to call out immediately because you will not feel anything and think you’re okay until it’s too late and under your skin. And then it burns. So, so much worse than if you had washed it off right away.
