First distro I got to work was LibraNet. Easy to set up and use, ran by a father-son team. Died when the father passed away. 😥
A little bit better controls and stuff too, but yeah, the story, characters, unit customization, etc. was all top-notch.
You mean Civilization: Call to Power. The unit was called the Eco Ranger. And they did make a sequel to it, called Call to Power 2. In some ways it was better, some worse. That being said, CTP1 is my favorite civ of all time (not counting SMAC). They should definitely make another sequel if they can keep the stuff that made it great. Kills me that I can’t get a modern working version of the original somewhere.
It would be easy enough to put a toggle in the settings for a ‘classic’ mode. I can see him doing that.

I’ve been using Clementine because it’s the only one I’ve found that lets me (easily) rate my songs. But I can always check out others if they can do that. I wish I could find one where the lyrics loaded automatically.

So you had pages of things like “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Plus Pizza”. I used to just skip those pages.

Mine was an obscure, short-lived distro called LibraNet. It was well done though, by just a father and son team. Unfortunately that was also why it was short lived, because the father passed away.
As for why I picked it, I didn’t really know much about how to choose a distro at the time, so I picked it based on the name, and its description of being easy to use and set up, which it was.
Exactly, I never had the zoom-out cube, just the desktop switch version, and it was painful to lose. I was so looking forward to that in 6 but no. 😢 The zoom cube is fun too though.
Yeah, there must be something subjective going on because they all look the same to me. They all look like closed happy eyes to me.
You can probably reuse an existing /home partition. But if you don’t have any files you want to keep, why bother?
I said no files I want to move, not keep. I would be keeping them right where they are, on the hdd.
