About mods for games giving you grief on Linux (given we're probably talking about wine/proton), one of the big offenders is case-sensitivity of path/filename. Windows ignores case, Linux and whatever filesystem you're on interprets Uppercase.file and lowercase.file as two different files. Next time you create an ext4 partition remember to turn on selective casefolding, which enables you to mark directories as case-insensitive. Been doing this since the feature was introduced and it completely circumvents the problem. Writing up a howto is a bit much for a youtube comment, the terms to search for are "linux ext4 casefolding".

One of the most difficult things about switching to linux.. also, using alt + backspace instead of ctrl + backspace to go back one word is sooooo annoying lol.
@johnathanmcdoe
@johnathanmcdoe Жыл бұрын
@@quintit Do you mean going back as in to delete the last word left of the pointer? If so give ctrl + w a try, I find that a lot more ergonomic than reaching for backspace. Moving the pointer one word back would be alt + b though. (I'm just guessing that whatever you're using is based on GNU readline, otherwise those shortcuts might do nothing or something different)

I like Windows Commander. Any old version is fine. I've been using it since back in the day, when it was Total Commander. For video media, VLC player. For music, good old WinAmp v2.95. Though more often I stream my local preferred classic rock station. And Greenshot. It's simple and effective. I used to use it a lot when I had to make workflow instructions for work, making screenshots of our ERP-system and adding in bullet points and such.

I use a large TV as an additional moniter. I'm always changing up what I want coming through the TV and what I want coming through my system speakers. I also use a USB switch to move my DAC from Home PC to Work PC. So my audio outputs that are available at any momment are constantly changing. Digging through windows setting to change stuff like that quickly is a pain. Ear Trumpet looks great for this.

I always love seeing a list like this, and seeing mostly the stuff I use. Nice to know I'm still using the right stuff. Haha. Though, cherrytree is my favorite list, but it is not on mobile. It's hierarchal note taking, so you can have subnotes, collapse them if there's too much on the screen. It's not checklist focused or anything, so it feels more like a place for my ideas, rather than a list that wants to pester me to complete things.

Talking about music: MP3tag, maybe you want to rearrange track number by date when you discover new music and wanna listen it in the order you discover it (like in soundcloud) but they come with the tracknumber already embedded, well you can change that in just simple steps. You can even rename, maybe you have tons of tracks and wanna rename them using the metadata like first the year, or first the artist, or first album or first artist; I really love it, make playlisting easy and simple.

Oh, one more trick if you use Open-shell start menu, If you can see through the taskbar (like moving a window under taskbar threshold line and that windows on a percentage is visible under the line (see through)), than if using Winamp with Milkdrop plugin and use it desktop mode, before you start the plugin, hide the taskbar, run the plugin inside winamp, unhide taskbar, and voila, you have a taskbar visualisation, so you can maximize your windows, you will still be in the disco. ;) Rock on!

It's really simple... FL Studio doesn't really work... and my premium virtual instruments just don't work at all. So, making music is far better on Windows. Otherwise, modding Morrowind and Skyrim... that was a complete failure for me, so I gave up. I also found that I spent about 90% more time fussing with the interface, customizing, and fixing little OS things... which is amazing, but also takes up so much of my time. I'm too pragmatic and just want to work on my music and play my games. I do that more than I look at the OS.

Thank you for acknowledging the upsides and downsides of certain software (mainly Discord and Windows.) Yes in a perfect world we would all be on Linux, but it unfortunately is not ideal for every use case. That doesn't mean we give up either, however. We try it everywhere, and use it where it fits. I will indeed mention to everyone I know that I would like to use Signal for direct messaging and small group chats, but until they give in, it is Discord for now. Unrelated note, please show me more Foobar, I have a completely stock install and I am always clearing and reloading songs onto a playlist, and I know that isn't the correct use but I know no other way!

I never got into foobar myself. I just found that vlc works really good for both my laptop and my phone, so I never really looked for an alternative. When it comes to powertools I find that sometimes to much choice can be bad. I had this dillema back in the day when I switched completly from Windows do Linux. After 2 yearts of running mint I still didn't have it like I wanted to and its not because I didnt know how to do things, its because there were so many option that I simply couldnt decide. After your video I'm gonna give firefox another try or maybe something else.

You can get it to work with foobar to display album art, play/pause and skip track. Looks really nice.

It's about 6-7/10 for me. I found musicbee to be slightly better... but none of them come close to Foobar when I consider the plugins I am using and such. For instance... after using my add-ons, I use it to convert things to opus easily, and it supports about 50 different native video game music formats, and I use it as a media server that supports foobar on my android phone.... so I can listen from anywhere.

I vote for Fancy Zones powertoy for a dedicated video. I didn't know about that one. Maybe I'm the only one. It's not as sexy as the others.

I'd say hardware is more important than software, because without the hardware what do you have? just a conceptual pile of 1's an 0s floating in the ether. You don't even have hardware to store those 1s and 0s, let alone execute them

I think his point was that hardware is a means to an end. Logan has talked about this idea before, I think in one of his videos about frequently upgrading hardware, and the point is that what you really do on a computer is interface with software (games, utilities, the operating system) and you should build your computer to meet your software needs. Right now I game on a machine built with an i7 3770k, ASUS P8Z68-V PRO motherboard, and a GTX 980 hooked up to a Sony Trinitron G400 CRT monitor and I'm still running Windows 7 pro. This isn't my primary computer but it suits my gaming needs/interests for the time being. I have so many old games available to me, and some new ones still play well too. The great thing about gaming on this machine with a CRT is I can lower the resolution to 800x600 and game at a high frame rate while still having a crispy image, whereas on a modern display that would be blurry as all heck. I've been playing Quake 2 Enhanced this way just for the novelty of it.

@@MarauderShields I agree, although I'd phrase it more as "you should get the only the hardware you expect to need and no more" rather than "software is less important than hardware blah blah". Then again, I'm not a youtuber trying to trap your attention with baity statements

basically ya its a clone from the code before it was made close source might even be missing features, no point other then its free of direct price might help some smart broke kid / teen out there or cheap bro like me that grew up a bit rough it also stops a bad habit of piracy {personally I feel comfort knowing open software like it will live like a zombie} and might have a chance of teaching someone reading the code @@teksyndicate
