Chrono Trigger with my wife. Having a blast with that. Almost done Metal Gear Solid on Extreme difficulty. That game is a true masterpiece. The extreme modes in MGS make them even better if you ask me.

Finished MGS2 a couple days ago. Those final codec calls are prophetic and terrifying. Another masterpiece.

Playing through MGS3 for the first time with my buddy too. Good fun.

You down vote me for saying the truth.

If you think installing Linux is hard you've either never done it and let other people dictate your opinions, you're incompetent with computers or you can't follow a simple step-by-step guide.

If you or someone you know sucks with computers, that's fine. I get not moving someone from Win to Linux if they can't understand the digital equivalent of tying their shoes. Just get a Chromebook if that's the case.

Barring cases of disability, using Windows at a basic level is not hard. Most home users use it to browse the dust on the upper crust of the internet, write a doc, print shit and nothing more. I bet if you swapped Win for Linux on most people's computers and riced it to look like Win 11 many of them would be none the wiser.

Also, if you're a Lemmy user and you have a basic understanding of how this platform works I guarantee you have the basic capacity to successfully install Linux on an old computer.

That's not a Linux problem, that's a PEBKAC or hardware problem.

If installing something like Linux Mint is not intuitive enough for someone, they probably don't even know what they're doing on Windows either.

If that's the case then that's fine. It gives gamers agency over how they experience the games they pay for.

Underrated band. The title track from this record is an actual masterpiece.

I'd be down for this if it was sized appropriately to be conveniently held in one hand.

I bet this is delicious but I'm turned off by the size. Its just unwieldy and likely falls apart into a mess.

This is a bad example, but I think the McDonalds double quarter pounder is about as big as a burger should get. Any bigger than that and I'm not likely to order it no matter how good it looks.

Clearly I don't like to be messy. Lmao
