People acting like gamers back then were blind for looking at this and not immediately thinking it looks gorgeous.

I was a teenager back then and I also thought it looked bad until they showed a way more convincing trailer at E3 the following year.

If you appreciate video games as a medium and want to see something impressive, play the end of the second act of Rhythm Doctor (on Windows).
En este podcast tuve que defender la alocada idea de que los juegos competitivos van de ganar.

Watched the Luo Xiaohei Zhanji (The Legend of Hei) movies. Really liked the 1st one. Loved the 2nd one.

The animation is impecable, the character designs are awesome, the backgrounds gorgeous, they are full of incredible action sequences, and the plot is basic but enjoyable.

I had tried installing an emoji font through the terminal and that somehow did nothing, but installing it by putting it in the fonts folder worked (for most emoji; a few weird ones such as 🈁️show as an ugly monochrome even if they are included in the font).

Godot doesn't display emojis in Nobara Linux 😭
This is a deal breaker for me. My whole organizational and debug systems depend on them.
Seems to be a Fedora issue. Can it be fixed?
Proton on Steam didn't work for some reason, "compatibility tool failed". A panel of Linux users troubleshooted my system live for 2 hours but were unable to fix it or find the cause. Also, the webcam was increasingly laggy, but we didn't try to fix it.

I installed Linux Mint. Spent a couple of days tinkering to get some Windows functionality such as being able to configure my mouse or having Super + V bring up the clipboard history.

The 3rd day I did some work, then attempted to play indie games on stream and the dream died.
