  • Ubuntu is the best bet for a distro to just work well out of the box.

    Granted I have still had a fuck ton of issues, errors, etc, but Ubuntu is the only distro that has worked the best out of the box. Fedora was a broken mess, and Mint was in between.

    So if you want anyone to not give up on Linux, direct them towards Ubuntu first. You can always switch distros later, but spending 3 days trying to fix issues on a different distro isn’t fun.










  • Portal or Minecraft.

    I’ve played so much Minecraft that I have everything down to a science.

    Like quickly making a wooden pickaxe, mining exactly how much cobble I need for a furnace and a stone pickaxe, and how to find coal and iron in less than 5 minutes.

    Wood and stone tools, outside the two pickaxes, are skipped entirely.

    Before the end of the first night I am almost entirely decked out in iron stuff.

    Farming cows for bookshelves for enchanting is quick and easy, and then getting fortune 3 and looting 3 pretty much makes the game easy mode. You print ores and food.

    Not to mention you can get mending from a villager easily. Just pick up and put down the job station until they give you mending. It’s not skill, it’s just luck. You can get it in less than 2 minutes if you’re lucky. Now you’ll never have to worry about anything ever breaking again. You can also get fortune and looting this way as well, removing the need to waste time and materials on the enchanting table.

    It’s sad. I wish I could erase my knowledge of it, and play Minecraft how I used to. By savoring my enchanted items, creaming my pants at the sight of diamonds, and grinding hard for food.
