I was talking to a friend the other day and trying to convey how good that fight looks. In some ways it's kind of cliché (the narrative flips on the "lightning" switch for effect), but it's so well-done that it doesn't matter. If you let yourself get swept up in the story, it's so damn tense and emotional. And the music, oh my god...

Off-topic, but I finally beat TotK the other day and the experience was utterly transcendent. I'm still blown away. They seriously made up for the deflated final fight in BotW, and then some.

Name checks ou- well, not really...

Ramble on!

I don't think I could find it, but there's a different, older version of this meme with the same pic. The punchline is indeed the first part of this one, but it was done in a much more subtle way and didn't ruin the joke by spelling it out with "murder instead of suicide."

Shame on whoever stole the joke and then not only told it badly, but ended it with necrophilia.

I haven't used it in a while, so I don't know if it still works, but the one I had is called Buycott.

I was gonna diagnose you with Vinny Derangement Syndrome, but either you're exactly right, or I have it too

Chrono Trigger is my favorite game of all time.

Every day I pray to whatever benevolent god(s) are out there that CT is never remade/remastered.

If it is, I hope it's everything you want it to be, but I know I won't be touching it.

Completely unrelated, but your comment reminded me of this old meme that always cracked me up

Hmm, reminds me of another republican tv-host-turned-president 🤔

What's wrong with rougelikes in your opinion? I don't usually seek them out, but for a good while I was super addicted to Binding of Isaac. I think the gameplay loop is pretty fun.

The rest of your comment I agree with wholeheartedly.

The only Zelda-like I can think of right now is Tunic. I haven't finished it yet, but it's a great game. It's on PC and all the major consoles. I'd say it's more like the pre-N64 Zeldas than the open-world ones. Also has an in-game manual that's 100% inspired by the manual that came with the first Zelda on NES. Incredibly charming game.

Let's assume we're not stopped at a traffic signal.

This is only anecdotal, but I heard once that you're not supposed to stop altogether, rather drive at a slower pace so as to let it pass quickly. The person said what was more important is that drivers don't make sudden changes to their behavior. An EMT driver can more safely maneuver if they don't have to predict what any one knucklehead will do the moment they get close.

If this is wrong or needs clarification, please enlighten me!

 

TL;DR: Have a very expensive laptop and want to make sure I can create a partition on two SSDs in RAID 0 without messing up everything.

Hi everyone!

I'm pretty new to Linux and I'd like to get Mint running on my Windows machine. I used Ubuntu way back in maybe 2010 and I didn't really get why it was so great, except for "holy shit look at the kickass desktop cube!" I also use Arch By The Way with my Steam Deck, but that barely counts as "using" Linux.

These days I'm much more privacy- and FOSS-minded (not to mention more tech-savvy and comfortable with the CLI since becoming a web dev) so I'm ready and excited to take it more seriously. I definitely want to keep Windows on here to keep a more reliable option for playing games.

Now to the meat and potatoes: my laptop came with this storage configuration (capture from the product page): From my limited understanding of RAID 0, the two m.2 drives are used as if they're one, with the data being "striped" across them. Would that lead to any issues when I create a primary partition for Mint? Maybe I'm just paranoid, but the last thing I want to do is ruin my laptop.

Here's what Disk Management shows, in case the additional info. is needed:

I would really appreciate any advice y'all can offer!
