Vorthas

Traditional for everything. Scrolling down means the view goes down. The mouse controls the camera (the reason why I always invert Y axis on controllers).

Been using kitty for a while now, though honestly any terminal emulator works for me.

X11. It just works for me, no reason to switch. Plus I exclusively use Xfce or MATE which as far as I know do not have Wayland support.

Nope, never learned. I’m 31 in the US. Never had the need to learn as I was raised with automatics only.

Plays somewhat well, but I get an amdgpu gfx_timeout crash within seconds of starting the Baltheus fight. This is apparently a known issue with the game itself (something about shaders not being calculated properly, which given the boss has a ton of particle effects, makes sense) so I’ll have to wait til that gets fixed. https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/7045#issuecomment-1693816570

Apparently there’s been a patch made here: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/7045#issuecomment-1697542953 so I’ll try that out.

That’s why you install an adblocker like uBlock Origin in Firefox. The browser isn’t responsible for blocking ads, that’s what add-ons are for.

The Caja file manager. Hell the MATE desktop environment in general is just perfect for me. Xfce is acceptable too, though the inclusion of CSD in recent Xfce releases has made me a bit more wary of it when it comes to theming.

I also use Waterfox as my browser. A Firefox fork that has the option to put tabs below address bar (where they belong imo) out of the box without needing to muck around with the userChrome.css file.

Yeah the term comes from the same one used for customizing cars. As to why it’s been used for desktop customization, I have no idea, but that’s where it’s from.

It basically means customizing your desktop to look pretty in some way.

This exists, but it has the downside of being a web app rather than a native application. Can’t use it offline for instance.
