@unhipdruid *quietly puts a GNU/Linux disc on your desk* Good luck with that.
-
@omni a Linux install disk is worse than finding coal in your stocking
-
@renovatedkitchen I'd rather have a Linux install disc than a Windows or Mac one.
-
@omni I bet they make very cozy fires xD
-
@renovatedkitchen How dare you burn a penguin!
-
@omni hehehe. Burn penguin, BURN!!
-
@renovatedkitchen *throws a rock through your window and throws a penguin plush filled with rocks at you *
-
@omni not sure if the burning penguin is dancing or trying to extinguish fire. Maybe it's going to panic
-
@renovatedkitchen Linux never kernel panics.
-
@omni except when it's in flames
-
@renovatedkitchen No. In that case it would output a "Thermal failure (CPU on fire?)" error message under some kernels.
-
@omni it can still work with a CPU on fire?
-
@renovatedkitchen It is hard to make Linux give up. I've had it run on months on a dying hard disk, BIOS and processor. It kept warning my, but never gave up before the hardware did.
-
@omni that's pretty good. Linus builds seem cool, but I don't want to run wine to play games
-
@renovatedkitchen Who needs proprietary games anyway? I'm fine with Nethack, Minetest, Red Eclipse, Xonotic and Tux Racer.
-
@omni I like real games.
Sunday, 16-Dec-12 23:42:23 UTC from web-
@zeldatra Define "Real Games".
-
@omni Games that aren't knockoffs.
Sunday, 16-Dec-12 23:45:29 UTC from web-
@zeldatra Warsow is not. Xonotic is not. Red Eclipse is not. Nethack is not. I can get you quite a huge list. Also, Minecraft is only a knock-off as well.
-
@omni Can't I enjoy my Adobe Flash in peace? Gawd.

@zeldatra What does a popular proprietary non-game have to do with this?
-
@omni It means as an animator I can't switch to Linux, unless they've got an alternative for that as well.

@zeldatra Maya runs in linux, but flash, i dunno.

@pony cherries 3D, man.
Sunday, 16-Dec-12 23:52:44 UTC from web -
@pony I have enough problems with Blender, Maya seems even harder.
Sunday, 16-Dec-12 23:53:44 UTC from web-
@zeldatra it's harder and easier. You get a lot more control in Maya as I understand so it's easier to get good results, but harder to learn how to use everything obviously, yeah.

@zeldatra We don't have the Adobe Flash animation software. I'm sure there is an alternative, but you need to be clear with stating your exact needs.
-
@omni A 2D vector graphics animation program capable of frame-by-frame animation as well as tweens, with an object library and support for many layers, ActionScript, pen sensitivity, tilt sensitivity, and Adobe Illustrator-like smoothing.

@zeldatra Well, at least that's precise, haven't gotten people to be clearer than "needs to be perfect" in a while. I'll think about it a bit when less tired.

@zeldatra super shooter XTREME 3D (available only on linux)
-
-
-
@zeldatra Warsaw, a free game with closed data (still free software) is a popular game in big eSport tournaments. Seems pretty "real" to me.
-
@omni *Warsow, derp
-
-
-
@omni eeeeeewwwww. That would be a waste of my gaming rig

@omni Which reminds me, sometimes Linux works a bit too well. When my power supply was dying, Windows kept BSoDing but Linux kept running without any issues so I didn't even notice my hardware was dying.
-
@omni so Linux is pretty much evil is what you're saying?
-
@renovatedkitchen I posted an error message in which it told me to sacrifice my child earlier today, so yes, I think so.
-
@omni see! See!!

@unhipdruid Unless you have a touch computer, it's pretty much Windows 7 with a fancy startup screen.

@zeldatra And a terribly-designed and inflexible tiling window manager.
