  • I’m a huge proponent of LaTeX also, but I feel like it’s not that widely used outside of specific professional niches. The biggest issue I have with Word (and similar software) is the content generation and typesetting being forced into the same interface. It just breaks everything all the time. I’d much happier using word if it only allowed you to type in an Edit mode, and only allowed you to change fonts and layout and stuff in a View mode, and the View mode changes weren’t reflected live in the Edit mode.

    you’re looking at potentially 40GB per 1080p film.

    Yeah, the largest movie I have right now is my remux of the 4K transfer of Lawrence of Arabia, clocking in at 97.3GB. So many 40-80GB remuxes though. Funny enough, the 1080p remux of LotR RotK extended edition punches way above its weight in file size just because of the length, it’s 44.6GB itself. This is all hevc but again just remuxed not reencoded.




  • lol ok, wow that’s a lot. You do realize that opinions are subjective right? Nowhere did I call gnome bad, I just said what its design language reminded me of and that I personally don’t like it. I’m happy that people like it. Im happy it exits and I’m happy that people have choices. I just don’t vibe with it at all. That’s fine, I don’t have to like the things you like. You don’t have to like the things I like. I’d bet money if I was slagging Windows 8 Metro you’d be totally fine with it though.

    I’m not really sure where the aggressiveness I’m feeling in your response is coming from, but I kind of doubt it’s driven solely by my opinions about a DE.


  • Oh absolutely no judgement on the people that use it, it’s just that’s the design language it reminds me of. I typically use KDE on bare metal Linux installs and xfce on my VMs, but like 99% of my Linux usage is in a full screen terminal running tmux so at the end of the day the desktop environment I’m running doesn’t matter at all.

    And yeah I completely get the aversion to changing a set up that works.





  • Yeah I’ve met them on more than a few occasions. I never got into them back when I was younger, so the musics just kind of meh to me now. No nostalgia for it, not my daily jam otw to work even if I might like metal kind of thing. They’re all phenomenal people like you said though, super community oriented, chill, good hearted people. Richmond would be a worse place without them around. I’ll definitely catch their local shows whenever they play though, it’s just a spectacle.
