Cool concept. I really appreciate the "independence" from the project after the installation. It would be cool, if the author preconfigured some less common DE/WM alongside the ones they package now. I yearn for a distro with a preconfigured tiling WM, so I wouldn't have to use my half broken i3wm setup.

I was an avid Minecraft player in my teens. It being cross-platform (basically 100 % compatibility) made my switch to Linux quite painless; if Minecraft did not work, I probably wouldn't install Linux.
I don't think people who use spaces press spacebar four (or who knows how many) times.
It’s strange, though… this one came out exactly four months ago as of tomorrow, and I’m not sure it’s been translated yet. Possibly the legal teams are working out rights issues, or something.
Well, according to Wikipedia, this comic is a part of new series, One-shot Schtroumpfs par…, so I can see why it would take longer to translate. (Perhaps they'll translate the comic only if the series sells.)
Still, The Smurfs are a major property, and as such, tend to get published in to a slew of other languages quickly enough.
You say that, but at least Czech translations of Smurf comics seem to be slower than, for example, translations of Asterix and Obelix or Tintin. All the Tintin episodes have been translated for a long time, and new Asterix and Obelix episodes are translated with a year’s delay. I wonder if it's because the market for kid comics is quite saturated here by local production.
Don't! SG-1 has an incredible charm.(Especially the earlier seasons where they use less CGi.)
This looks cool! I remember reading some Smurf comics when I was little. I remember them being “kiddy”. Unlike e.g. Tintin or Asterix and Obelix, which I still find charming, I probably wouldn’t read them now, but this looks fun. Is it only available in French?
That sounds terrible! I am already not very good at managing the charge of my phone.
Genuine question: How do you manage not to lose one of the earbuds?
It is definitely an interesting subgenre of videogames. Two things I want to mention:
- Most of these types of games are made by indie devs, who are supported by their fans on crowdfunding sites (Patreon etc.). This leads some devs to update their games slowly, dripfeeding content to the players; the longer they develop the games, the more money the whales give them. It’s an interesting parallel to the many early-access games one can find on Steam.
- It’s interesting to compare the types of stories these games tell to other independent internet creations, e.g. fan fiction. There’s not much fluff. I’d wager it’s because of demographics.
Also what the fuck does the author mean when he says ubuntu is special¿?
There are two ways I read that:
- Ubuntu is special just to the author. It's their favourite distribution and it holds sentimental value to them. The author doesn't want Ubuntu to change, because they like it just the way it is.
- Ubuntu is special because of its high popularity between new users. For a long time, Ubuntu was/is suggested to newbies because of its ease of use and solid defaults. The removal of the apps could make the experience of future new users worse, so less people would stick with Linux.
And so does Sublime Text: CTRL+SHIFT+U for inserting Unicode characters doesn't work in it. :(
I recently switched from ST4 to VS Code (Codium actually) because of this and because it's easier to set up a Python debugger.
