DK64 has a certain charm to it. I think there’s a really good game in there, but it also tries to do WAYYY too much, and having to memorise all those Street Fighter button combos to pull off basic moves is hard work.

MS no longer produces an official Teams binary for Linux. (Correct me if they’ve started doing so again)

Further to your point about Adobe: their market position is such that they’d probably rather you pirate their software than not use it at all

I was 7 when I first properly used Linux. My dad somehow found a prebuilt which came with SuSE - I assume version 7 or thereabouts. It didn’t last long, sadly, before we switched over to Windows XP.

Then at age 14/15, I ran Ubuntu 10 as my daily driver on my netbook. Then #! for a bit.

Used Windows 7 and 10 until… I guess age 26/27 since that’s what we’re doing, when I switched to Debian full-time. (Via MX-Linux, which didn’t quite work out)

Looks a bit like Soundtracker et al.

Trinity Desktop Environment is really cool - a bit more XP-era, mid-2000s style, though.

I’m not sure I do, please can you explain?

I hope this doesn’t awaken anything in me.

Could that day be today?

Sacred stones? Imprisoning war???

If you want to get technical, the first was arguably 3D Monster Maze, released in 1981. There was also Battlezone, again 1981 - though it’s debatable whether it counts as an FPS.

A more accurate answer would be id’s own Catacomb 3D, from 1991.

Wolf 3D definitely wasn’t the first by any stretch

How is Bastion on neither of these lists??

Great, but small Android phones are still few and far between. The Jelly Star is a notable exception, but those devices don’t seem to get much in the way of long-term support

I’ve found XnView to be a good IrfanView replacement. (Granted it’s not QUITE as good; same as how there isn’t anything quite as good as Notepad++)

As for Lynx on Windows, looks like it’s available through Scoop! https://bjansen.github.io/scoop-apps/main/lynx/

Sounds like Root Explorer would be suitable.

VMware offers their Workstation hypervisor for free now. I’m able to run Windows 10 surprisingly well using that, and use relatively intensive software like Affinity Designer without any noticeable issues.

Oh, I wasn’t aware of the Paperless app! Thanks!

Someone broke it down here: https://bajsicki.com/blog/loops-video-terms/

I think it was prior to version 2, but these days it’s based on Sid - https://vanillaos.org/nerd-info

Yes, it’s called VanillaOS! https://vanillaos.org/
