I don’t disagree with you. Symphony of the Night is exceptional but Aria and Dawn are so, so good.

True - so it’s a bit more like the swamp overflowed and some shit ran out.

Weird, I would expect Steam to be in the Ubuntu repos (assuming that’s what you were using, since you mention apt), but maybe not. As for apt, or apt-get, they are just the terminal equivalent of the GUI package manager (synaptic? it’s been a minute since I ran ubuntu), so if something isn’t in the repos, apt at the terminal won’t find it either. If it’s not in the repos, you should be able to download and install steam from the website just like you would in windows. It gives you a .deb file which will launch just like an executable installer in Ubuntu. But to your point, yes, sometimes things in linux take a little extra thinking to get to work. Getting accustomed to the way Linux works can help overcome hiccups like this. Windows has many quirks as well, it’s just that if you use WIndows often you know your way around them.

Most games on Steam work just fine when you turn on Proton. Gaming on linux has come a long way.

Well, how about that. Trump did drain part of the swamp.

To what end? To pee? Who cares? Go ahead. When the line’s too long at one, people regularly duck into the free restroom in an emergency anyway. If you have to go, just go.

If someone goes into a public restroom with the intention of harming someone inside, it doesn’t matter what gender any of them are, or what they look like, or which bathroom it is. None of that matters. Don’t go into a bathroom with the intention of harming someone. That’s wrong. The end.

Astronomy is pretty cool :) Yeah, the H-R diagram plots luminosity vs. temperature (decreasing), so the biggest, brightest stars are at the top left and the smallest and dimmest at the bottom right with the red giants hanging out in the upper right corner. Most stars (the main sequence) can be found along the diagonal from top left to bottom right.

To talk astronomy on a first date, I might suggest asking about a favorite constellation and then pointing out some of its neighbors in the sky and some of the more prominent stars.

You can have some fun with Orion, for example. Find Orion’s belt and follow it down and to the left until you get to a bright blue star. That’s Sirius, and the constellation is Canis Major, Orion’s hunting dog. From Orion’s belt again, follow it up and to the right until you come to a red star at one tip of what looks like a “V” shape. That V is the face of Taurus the bull, and the red star is Aldebaran. Following the line of Orion’s shoulders up and to the left you’ll come to three stars in an elongated ‘V’. That’s Gemini, the twins, the two stars at the top are Castor and Pollux. Pollux is the brighter one, on the left. And Castor looks like a single star, but is actually six binary pairs!

If your date things that’s cool, maybe one day you can talk to them about the different fusion reactions that occur in the core of a star, but I wouldn’t lead with that. :D

Astronomy is one of those things that people think they like until they find out it’s mostly math, physics, and chemistry, and looking at cool pictures of space is not directly involved.

source: astronomy minor. I liked it but being able to discuss the various types of variable starts and plot them in a Hertzsprung–Russell diagram is not going to win me any dates.

Why make up a religion, when you can join an already established one, and then foment a schism? The Church of the SubGenius welcomes all heretics.
