Printing in Linux has mostly been plug and play for years now. I just gave it the IP of my printer and it automagically set everything up. Scanning was a bit of a bitch.
CUPS is dated for sure, but most modern OSes (OpenSuse here) have wrappers around it to make the setup pretty straightforward.
Yes, and my printer was found immediately through the network and the print quality was great. Guess it depends on the brand though, and maybe the distro you’re using.
I’m making a joke about how if he’s ever used printing in Linux, he’s likely a “fool with no brain” as it uses CUPS, which is maintained in large part by Apple.
not a youtuber, but I genuinely enjoyed babylon bee and the daily bonnet for parody news about christian and mennonite culture. the humor was always inward. now its all propaganda
My first car, a 1973 Dodge Charger. This is a representative picture, not my actual car. 1973 Dodge Charger
I bought it for $750 with no engine or transmission (but it came with a bunch of tools). It was a stock automatic but I converted it to a 4-speed manual in the process of building it back up.
I probably spent twice as much time working on it than I did driving it before I totalled it. That was very sad.
Fun fact. Clocks used to have a limit at 2 hours (unsure if it’s still that way). If you snoozed for 2 hours after the original alarm, it stopped alarming altogether. Ask me how I know.
You've answered your own question. You like 3rd-person shooter platformers, a genre which isn't as prevalent as it was in the 6th generation of consoles. Not as many games are coming out that fit your tastes. You're also nostalgic, which is perfectly fine, but you have to take off the goggles sometimes. I like Mario Sunshine better than a lot of modern 3D platformers, because I've been playing it for years and it was a big part of my childhood. But just because I love revisiting that game more than playing a new game sometimes, that doesn't mean modern games aren't reiterating and improving upon the things that made it great. A Hat in Time, Psychonauts 2, The Cosmic Shake, Spark the Electric Jester, Orbo's Odyssey, SEUM, Frogun, New Super Lucky's Tale, Supraland, Crash 4. So many great 3D platformers in recent years, with a ton of improvements to quality of life and control compared to where we were back in the day, as well as many new concepts.
Also, claiming that PS2 platformers as a whole look better than modern platformers as a whole is ridiculous, and you're also giving no examples of either case.
Tik went from solidly researched war history to not-so-solidly researched political and religious theory. I did not appreciate it. Veritas et caritas recently raked him over the coals for it, which I am grateful for. Hopefully he returns to his area of strength, and resumes making quality history content.
