My hands are pretty medium sized, and I think it’s the most comfortable portable device I have ever had in my hands. It is however a bit heavy. It’s also not a pocket device like the Gameboy was, although most DS are not very pocketable either.

I also think that the marketing failed hard. I don’t remember seeing any ads for the game, and the marketing in Japan made it seem like a bait and switch for Mother 3. It also released pretty close to the Japanese mother 3 release as well.

I was going to mention Contact being a unique game, glad I’m not the only one who remembers it fondly. The reviews upon release where not great but I thought it was a pretty good game.

This is what I came here for. Can’t forget about the chubby one.

MacOS is actually not a BSD as some people like to think. It is Unix, it used to be posix tested but it has never, ever been a BSD. MacOS is based on the mach kernel, a kernel that was intended to replace the BSD kernel for a GPL licensed Unix. Most of the people who wanted a GPL Unix just went with Linux in the end. We are still waiting to see what Hurd has to off though. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mach_(kernel)

I hate this. I’m pretty sure this gave me PTSD somehow.

Can I join the club, I use 9front

I love seasonic PSU. They are the among the best IMO and all my personal machines use them.

Personally, I would pick something from this list. Then you can use piper to manage your mouse settings, and it will be an awesome experience.

I have a Logitech G305 with a custom shell and modded switches that I love, for something close you can look at pmm.gg custom mice.

If anyone believes anything Nadella says they are already drunk on the Kool aid

I have to use SQL at work enough that I just use that for any database I need for personal projects, almost always MariahDB. Helps me stay current on my skills I guess.

Totally understandable, it has a lot going on and if you already know reaper it might be good to stick with it. Good luck!

Bitwig comes with so much that I can’t remember if they have drum samples or just machines or both. I highly recommend you try the free trial to see if you like it before you buy.

If you don’t mind paying for it, Bitwig is probably the best that officially supports Linux. There are also ways to run windows VSTs in wine on Linux. I’m no pro, but I love Bitwig, it has boatloads of cool stuff. Reaper also supports Linux. Ubuntu is fine IMO, I think there is a spin that’s specific to audio workloads that might be nice for a beginner. I use Arch at home but I use Ubuntu for work, it’s pretty nice these days.

Latest release was 9 years ago, not exactly what I’m looking for. 9front is probably closer to what I want than inferno.

I mean, you’re right but I still want to see a modernized plan 9, I just think it would be neat.

This is news to me! I’m honestly just paroting others with the no CLI support, I never did the homework. Shame on me I guess!

This is why I don’t love snaps, proprietary backend. I think snaps actually work great for the most part, and flatpaks don’t support cli apps, only GUI.

I think we should just resurrect Plan 9 instead.
