  • Yeah, I don’t mind playing the game on the hardest difficulty so long as all it does it adjust damage numbers, but if changes mechanics that’s not as much fun.

    I have all the achievements in mass effect legendary edition for example. I won’t get all of the achievements in the dead space games because beating them with so many saves or one life is bullshit.





  • Its a good beginners distro. The default desktop environment is very windows 7-y. It has a great out of box experience with everything having a GUI. It’s built on Debian (um ackchyually Linux mint is based on Ubuntu unless you’re using mint Debian edition. Ignore the fact that Ubuntu is a Debian distro itself) which is incredibly stable with most updates being small bug fixes or security patches with the biggest updates being infrequent.


  • I don’t understand the hate for Linux newbies using the “beginner’s” distros. Hell, I actively tell people looking to get into Linux to use a beginner distro and offer to set up their computer for them.

    “Look, this is Linux mint, see how windows-y this looks and feels?”

    They don’t need to know more than that, I’ll tell them if they look for installation instructions for something not in the software manager to follow the Debian or Ubuntu instructions and that they should run an update at least once a day but it isn’t painful.





  • Its right 97% of the time. That does not mean you have a 97% chance of having the disease. The 3% error rate accounts for significantly more false positives than it accounts for false negatives on a disease that’s 1 in a million. Again, with a 3% error rate, there will be 30000 false positive test results in a million. 30000 in a million is a larger number than 1 in a million.
