Looking to dip my toes into Linux for the first time. I have a 2016 Intel MacBook Pro with pretty solid specs collecting dust right now that I think I’m going to use. Research so far has indicated to me that the two best options for me are likely Mint or Elementary OS. Does anyone have any insight? Also open to other OS’s. I would consider myself decently tech savvy but I am not a programmer or anything. Comfortable dipping into the terminal when the need arises and all that.

luthis,

Mint is full easy-mode. Definitely try that for your first. You can even run it off the USB as a live distro and get a feel for it. Go for the Gnome desktop version, it is prettier than XFCE, just a little heavier.

Mess around with that, break it, fix it, have fun.

When eating at home, how do you cook your hot dogs?

luthis,

I don’t cook, I make my wife do it.

…which is to say my hands do the cooking.

@linux any global mesh networks that could replace ISP's?

luthis,

The bandwidth on that would be just insane. Pity about the latency though.

18+ luthis,

I’ll be telling my bank I’ll be taking my mortgage elsewhere. I pray that’s still possible.

an analysis of historical video game availability shows that only 13% of classic video games are currently commercially available across consoles and time periods, and only 3% of games prior to 1985

luthis,

TONS. Think about all the games from ps3 backward. Im currently playing burnout 3 again on ps2. Its ridiculous fun, looks great on the emulator. What about Little Big Planet, chronicles of riddick, metal gear solid… The list is endless. You cant buy the game and the hardware to play it on from any store. And it depends on your definition of worth playing. Most games that arent fifa or nba will have fans that want to play it

luthis,

Same thing happened with chronicles of riddick. The only way to play it is by piracy. Its well worth playing and the graphics still hold up!
