-

-
@electroidfire havent finished the 2 seasons yet?
-
@electroidfire meh, i will be at japanese class (more coming home after class) when that happens
-
@electroidfire juat doing nothing for the rest of the night. you?
-
@electroidfire hello there
-
@electroidfire Having a nickname filled with numbers. Mine used to be D34THS1L3NZ :P
-
@electroidfire Oh, 1337-speak nicknames... I used to have one of those as well XD
-
@electroidfire That's what I did for quite some years, and then I tried Linux (SUSE Linux 9.1, really old), found it stupid and went back to Windows. Years later, I gave Linux another try and now I'm stuck on it :P At any rate, you could always try Linux Mint in a virtual machine (like VirtualBox) to see how you like you if you don't want to really install it. But hey, do what you want, I'm not your mother :P
-
@electroidfire I hear that more often, but it really is. You'll have to install a Java environment though and, unlike on Windows, we have multiple of those on Linux so that's confusing as hell. I would go to the software repositories and install anything Java which looks good, as I unfortunately don't know which one you need to run it. One important thing is to right-click the minecraft.jar file and mark it as an executable :P
-
@electroidfire Minecraft actually runs on Linux, as it's written in Java.
-
@electroidfire Mint is a good choice for beginners, yes. Mint was my second distribution, and I only left it because one moment I decided this was too... pre-set for me. But yeah, you can't really go wrong with Mint as a new user.
-
@electroidfire If you are willing to put enough time into it, Arch will be a pretty respectable choice. Gentoo is really the best choice if you want to know everything and have total control, but its learning curve is terribly steep (I haven't managed to install it correctly). Well, here is your manual. Good luck: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beginners%27_Guide
-
@electroidfire It's the only thing I can do reasonably well so, in other to not feel completely useless, I just waste my time with that.
-
@electroidfire I'm running Arch Linux myself, but I wouldn't recommend that to anyone who doesn't mind tweaking around for hours on end and doesn't have a fair amount of experience with Linux already :P
-
@electroidfire True, most are. I also see a lot of users mentioning Zorin OS nowadays. Wonder how that got so popular :P
-
@electroidfire Most definitely. A lot of people don't even know there is more than Windows and Mac. I must comment on the "freeware OS" thing, though, as there are distributions which cost money.
-
@electroidfire We're getting there, slowly and surely. We already have Steam, which is a great thing, so it's just a matter of time for it to become a more useful desktop platform :P
-
@electroidfire It probably won't, even with Steam being on it now (limited beta). But oh well, it works fine for me so yeah. I do agree, for video editing, it's not really all that awesome yet :P
-
@electroidfire Well, I agree that they don't match the level of Sony Vegas or Adobe Aftereffects, yeah, but they seem to be good enough for basic video editing. Then again, I must admit that I know very little about it since, with only 2GB of RAM, I don't really do a lot of video editing.
-
@electroidfire Well, yeah, the amount of games we have is a bit small and the amount of professional video editors as well. At least we've got a few decent free video editors like PiTiVi, OpenShot and KDenLive. I personally don't know of any free Windows video editor besides Windows Movie Maker.
-
@electroidfire I've been using it daily as my main machine for a few years now. I'm not really regretting it, I like this whole ecosystem and the Humble Bundles allow you to get good, cross-platforms games for a low price. I'm listening through the soundtrack now, and I think I'm going to play Machinarium later :3
-
@electroidfire Will do! C:
-
@electroidfire i find it ok
-
@electroidfire (\ :x
-
@electroidfire hmm, reasonable i guess
-
@electroidfire It was alright. Muse's "Supremacy" would've made a rad Bond theme.
-
@electroidfire Errr, sure I guess? (\ Aww, I got words between our hooves :(
-
@electroidfire i find the consol it-self great, im just not crazy about the games
