    • In case you haven’t heard about it yet, VLC is both a media player and a video re-encoder in one app. Basically essential for Macs.
    • Homebrew is a terminal utility that allows you to download many apps that otherwise have difficult setup processes.
    • Speaking of things that can be installed through homebrew, Wineskin Winery is a tool that allows you to run Windows apps on a Mac. Very very janky at times and requires hours of googling and digging through stuff sometimes, but runs amazingly once you do that.
    • Ryujinx is a Nintendo Switch emulator available on Mac. Not too good for games like BoTW or ToTK, but runs basic visual novels just fine. Oh and if you don’t have a Switch already be willing to do some sailing on the high seas.

    • Roland: Few things are as dangerous and nasty as selfishness in the guise of ‘for the sake of someone else’…
    • Angela: I think I know what you mean. The determination to work for the good of others can be a dreadful and loathsome weapon. They’re blinded by self-righteousness, and have no regards for their surroundings. They don’t care what happens to others. They justify themselves for pressing forward pursuing their justice, crushing everything in their way…

    From Library of Ruina. The song “And Then Is Heard No More” from the OST touches on similar themes, go look up the lyrics if you’re intrigued






  • Idk about Linux, but on Mac I can run most Windows games through Wine no problem. IIRC Linux has Proton, which is a better version of Wine that’s built into Steam so you can launch Windows games directly from your native Linux Steam client. Unless you play a lot of AAA games I’d suggest giving it a go.


  • I respectfully disagree. Downvotes add a way of gauging the percent of people who support/don’t support a comment. Let’s say I’m asking for advice about which product to buy. With an upvotes-only system the upvote count is biased towards the earliest comment, whereas with an up/down vote system, the ratio helps you detect comments with heavy bias or blatantly wrong facts. So an upvote/downvote system makes it easier to tell the credibility of a comment, basically allowing you to indirectly gauge the opinion of the community rather than the one person who commented.
