Yup. Shit is fucked up.

According to my parents, saw Indiana Jones & The Temple of Doom when I was 4. Then I saw Jaws at age 6. But it was Ghostbusters that gave me nightmares for about 7 years afterwards.

I still remember my older brother renting mega man back when I was 9 or 10 years old and I looked at the box art and said “this looks like a terrible game”. And then the game itself was epic for its time.

They were fantastic to use. I remember using ResEdit back in the day to change my menu names in the Finder, knowing what every system extension did so I could delete non essential ones to speed up the system.

Unlike these days, you spent more time getting work done, rather than fighting the application or OS.

I loathe how new OS’s and programs change the UI / UX these days and make it worse every time. Looking at you Adobe / Microsoft!

Couldn’t we just buy him a pizza lunch?

Good news, everyone. Turns out less than 8,000 children are dead. Guess it’s not a germicide after all /s.

Most games I play work on Proton. It’s Destiny 2 that will get your account banned if you use Linux. I’ve invested too much time at this point to risk a ban, so I’ll need to wait until I finish the last DLC before I switch. I’ve run Suse and Redhat in the past, but the last time I attempted to game on Linux was Team Fortress 2. Based on my experience with SteamDeck, it wouldn’t be hard to get most games up and running.

I finally had enough of Win11 and downgraded to 10. What a difference! I can actually reliably change my audio outputs again with 2 clicks! I can get to old school settings panels with less hassle and digging too.

I know this comes off as a kidnapping victim saying “My old kidnapper let me use the shower”, but until all my games run well in Linux, I’m stuck here.

Give me the GEP gun.
