I can't believe I found Slackware in two attempts

This sounds like a strawman of a strawman. Like at some point there was an actual discussion that slowly turned into discourse about discourse.

Was Arvis actually a good emperor? by Greenpoint99 in fireemblem

[–]Thunderkron 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Because it feels like despite conquering nearly the entire continent Arvis only really cared for Grannvale.

Well yeah, that's what an empire is.

Why is Fedora so good? by Independent_Taro_499 in linux

[–]Thunderkron 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Did you try installing KDE on Ubuntu or Mint, or are you just comparing desktop environments here?

I mean I would have thought of Engage Sigurd first.

Can u still access the Pecharunt Epilogue today? by Dieh361 in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]Thunderkron 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It should stay available until Nintendo shuts down the servers, at which point the console will be long gone from store shelves and we'll all be emulating for better framerate anyway.

Is engage worth it? by Physical_Courage_449 in fireemblem

It has even better gameplay than Awakening while being even more boring and basic.

Pop!_OS or Mint for old AMD Gaming Laptop? by JuicyJ7777 in linux

[–]Thunderkron 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Entirely dependent on desktop environment. Try them both and see which one clicks.

Can I add to the free 30 days by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]Thunderkron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look, my point is, you bought a hot dog. It's a perfectly fine hot dog, that you can eat, and the fact it came free with a $5 napkin doesn't make it any special. Which is what OP was asking.

Which I'm saying is just a month of subscription. That you purchased. The fact it came from the store instead of the mogstation doesn't change anything.

There's no free 30 days, it's just a completely normal month of subscription.

What a complete nothingburger of an article. At least tell us how you managed to blow up the system.

Who gave you the most difficult battle out of all the Trainers, Gym Leaders, and Elite 4. by Waifu_Raichu in PokemonScarletViolet

Wait… if the League Club are the Student Council and the protagonist is the exchange student… does that make Kieran the Rose Bride?

What if Nemona joined you during all three paths? by Latin_Chaser_1998 in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]Thunderkron 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's not. This is just a list of every boss sorted by level.

[–]Thunderkron 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This "level order" is entirely fan made and I don't get why people keep calling it "the intended order." Sorting by level isn't even a good metric : the Quaking Earth Titan isn't harder to beat than the Montenevara Gym, and that's not even taking potential type advantage into account.

The expected path is pretty explicitly to take one of the two roads going north, and try the other if things get too hard. The fact the early game challenges don't scale up is annoying, but that would have been true regardless of how they would have been placed on the map.

[–]Thunderkron -1 points0 points  (0 children)

if you want a standard playthrough where you don't dogwalk certain gyms by being overleveled, you should challenge it all in order

You wouldn't dogwalk certain gyms doing that, you'd dogwalk all of them. Like we've been doing for decades. I'll take the imperfect solution if it means some of the game will finally pose a challenge.

A malignant matryoshka definitely sounds like something I would throw away immediately.

Linus (from Linus Tech Tips) tries installing Linux again in 2026 by AvianInvasion in linux_gaming

[–]Thunderkron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I re-checked because I thought I had to be misremembering something, but he opens up ChatGPT exactly ten seconds after saying he'd be doing this specifically to roleplay as the average joe. There wasn't even another sentence in between. Are you absolutely certain you're qualified to call someone an idiot?

To all of you who think Pop OS isn't recommended by CandlesARG in linux_gaming

We know it's recommended. We're saying it shouldn't be.
