Foobar! I tweaked it for years to be as simple yet powerful as possible. It counted plays, the date when songs were added and last played, which is lost now. It had a beautiful waveform-view I miss every day. And it converted and renamed files exactly as I told it to. I found some workarounds, but nothing comes close. Rhythmbox is good but misses the waveform view. Other applications are beautiful but offer too much bells and whistles, I like it simple. Feel free to recommend stuff!

I was a windows fanboy for more than 20 years. Going back every couple of months feels strange. Windows has changed, feels intrusive and uncandid to me. Linux is still new and sometimes a little strange to me, I miss my perfectly customized music player but apart from that, it’s so much fun to use. I can’t ever go back. Looking at Windows-user struggling makes me unconformable because i know they will never experienced how using a free OS feels like. They are so used to smartphones and computers shoving stuff down their throats instead of being the best tool you can come up with.

Where my twelvethousandtwentyfive people at?! We don’t care about the Jesus, Neolithic Revolution all the way!

I was one of the commenters but I’m of no help. It just worked. I use Linux Mint, it has Nvidia-support out of the box. I installed sunshine and, well, used it. No extra settings, no tinkering.
I love Mint, btw. I don’t see how this is a beginners OS. Just because everything is easy and just works? I have no intentions to distro hop because I don’t see anything I could gain from changing to a different Linux version.

I have a Nvidia card, use sunshine and never had any problems in Linux Mint

I dual boot Linux Mint, installed it AFTER Windows and never had any problems. I default boot Linux.

lol, stop trolling. Nothing is real right? Animal suffering is.

What do you want, commie? Stop wasting my time.

Local meat is not better for the environment. Scientific information is only one click away. Look at this graph, it’s impressive. Plus:

#11 I only eat organic and regional

While seemingly 99% of people say this about themselves, the proportion of organic meat in virtually all western countries is less than 2%. Maybe you consciously buy organic products for the big feast, but then in everyday life you go get your weekly hamburger, the restaurant around the corner, or “just this once” prefer to reach for the somewhat cheaper discount products. Moreover, in organic farming, animals suffer and die in the same way. Organic cannot solve the core problems: Murder and exploitation for pleasure. The goal is more about soothing the conscience of consumers rather than actually helping the animals.

#22: Plants have feelings too

No, they do not. There is no serious study to suggest that they do. Plants do not have a brain or central nervous system. At most, they respond to stimuli. If you really care that much about the welfare of plants, you should go vegan, since many more plants “die” for animal feeding. Do you feel bad while mowing your lawn? And would you rather rescue a potted plant than a dog from a burning house? Is docking pig tails the same as branch trimming to you? Question upon question…

I dual boot for two years, because I need a special software for work every couple of months. I mounted my old windows drive in Linux and soft linked it from my Linux home directory. So if I go to home > documents I see my new documents, plus there is a “documents archive” folder, that takes me to my windows drive with it’s older documents. I added these soft links to my music, pictures as well. This works great.
I never experienced any problems with windows destroying my boot options. I’m not an expert, but managed to setup GRUP to instantly boot Linux (Mint). If I want windows, I need to push the boot menu key (F11) and actively select it. Otherwise I don’t even notice it’s even there.

White on black, perfection

Just copy paste the smartfunny words. 99% of the time I’m not interested in the nickname of the person nor their avatar, so you source-link only because it’s nice. :)

Or you get to experience another big bang. That would be worth the wait.

I like the simplicity and that everything is up to date. Not sure about the weekly 11 GB of updates though.

Saw a documentary about a Chinese billionaire on TV a couple of years ago. He was born poor in some village and worked his way up, owning dozens of factories now. He was super busy, grumpy to the people around him and very torn. He asked the camera if he is part of the solution or part of the problem, he couldn’t tell. Told us he misses the sounds of frogs in the evening, when he was playing with his friend in the forests and fields that are now industrial parks. Made me cry, what are we doing?

Same, Timeshift let me down one time when I needed it. I still use it though, and I’m afraid to upgrade Mint because I don’t want to set my system again for of the upgrade fails to keep my configuration and Timeshift fails to take me back
