  • I like it a lot. The initial move was predicated by working in the entertainment industry and all the shows coming through our theater needed qlab.

    But after that I started using it for personal use. I was unable to move my photoshop cs6 license over because I have been unable to get a copy of it in 64bit. But I have since switched to affinity. It has a steep learning curve, but I mostly use it for graphics for my shop so it does what I need it to do.

    I have been using libre office since forever, that moved over with me.

    Before getting my MacBook Pro I was doing most of my gaming on my ps5, so I am not missing a lot there. But most of the games I do play are available on the Mac (No Man’s Sky, FF14, Palia, mudlet, Apico, Mudborne).

    When I connect a monitor it works, when I connect a TV through my 4x4 matrix it works.




  • Wdym with linux can be broken?

    Linux mint kept harassing me to install the official drivers for my wireless card, so I did. It broke my ability to use WiFi.

    I told Linux while in presentation mode I did not want the screen to sleep, it took that as sleep after 5 minutes.

    Every time the laptop sleeps/restarts my screen resolution is borked, half the time the correct resolutions are not available and I have to disconnect all my monitors, restart, then connect the monitors.

    Most solutions I hear are use a different distro, learn command line, you should not be using Linux if you cannot fix this stuff.

    That is what i mean when I say Linux can be broken.










  • I am not a fan of the genre. But a friend I met playing EverQuest back in 99 started to play it because his 6 year old son wanted to play, so I started playing. I enjoyed playing with them, then my own son started to play with us too.

    Were this not the case, I would never have played. My friend died in ‘22 and I mostly stopped playing. His son still calls me to play. But other than that I play other games.

    If you like the genre, it is a good game. You can play 100% for free unless you needs skins (there are a number you get for free)
