  • I want to say it was Putt-Putt Goes to the Moon, but it very likely was the earliest Math Blaster, or one of the Reader Rabbit point and click adventure games.

    Possibly, it was that Barney game for one of the earliest Macs that came with a giant ball mouse to teach kids how to use a mouse.

    IDK, the first I remember falling in love with was Super Smash Bros. on the N64. It made me desperately want an N64

















  • I got my brother, who is not Linux-savvy, set up playing Clone Hero on his Steam Deck while I was thousands of miles away and it played with no input lag basically out of the box on SteamOS. If you’re looking for a good Guitar Hero experience on Linux with lots of custom songs, Clone Hero is for you.

    If you’re looking for Guitar Hero with characters, venues, and no input lag on Linux I have nothing to suggest. :/




  • Short answer: Realistic

    Long Answer: I think there’s a time and place for both. Idealistic can be very fun and comfortable to fall back on. However, like your typical “Jack Smith, highly-trained and deadly secret government agent” protagonist, there’s way too much idealistic romance in pop culture to the point that I believe it skews how many people expect relationships to work. That’s commonly unhealthy and occasionally dangerous, so I think we need more popular depictions of realistic romance, and by romance I mean all kinds of relationships. ESPECIALLY close, tight-knit non-sexual friendships between men and women.
