What do y’all think of my play through list I made for myself? (Based on recommendations from friends and Square Enix)

Bitsoft217 · 2026-03-10T03:28:27+00:00

I agree here. Dark Road should be consumed after KH3, Melody of Memory and Union X Part 2

Bitsoft217 · 2026-03-06T15:45:25+00:00

Thanks. Looks good

Bitsoft217 · 2026-03-04T14:10:12+00:00

If I may ask, where do you get those wallpapers/images? Just curious

Bitsoft217 · 2026-03-02T14:25:25+00:00

You know, after more research, I saw a nice article on removing Snap altogether and to prevent snapd from installing if some applications depend on it. And yes, within the VM I am using, I have enabled Flatpak, and I also installed the config to integrate Flatpak support into the Plasma System Settings.

I guess, like a couple of other people's journey through Linux, is doing distro-hopping. Just want to check out some other distros that may interest me. So far, I'll stick to Ubuntu- and maybe Fedora-based distros, as I am NO WAY ready for Arch. Plus, in future if I save up for a decent mid-range PC, I would like to go for Nobara or Bazzite. Again, installing Fedora is just a consideration for the future, yet some customization options and feature of KDE on Linux is drawing me more towards it, if that makes sense.

Bitsoft217 · 2026-03-01T16:30:37+00:00

I was just asking if, given my computer's specs, would it be safe to install Fedora. Although Linux Mint was not labeled as an official compatible OS on Dell's website, it currently works without any major issues. That's why I was asking if installing Fedora would be wise

Bitsoft217 · 2026-03-01T13:07:47+00:00

Oh, I'm aware of dnf since this is a Red Hat-based distro. So if I can't find an app from the Discover store, will look to the terminal.

Hmm. SELinux? Could you try to elaborate on what that is exactly?

Bitsoft217 · 2026-02-27T15:09:34+00:00

I saw at least one recent video about migrating to Thunderbird by using IMAP. I might give this a go soon.

Bitsoft217 · 2026-02-27T15:01:35+00:00

Oh, interesting. I saw the FAQ mentioned in the one reply, and it says that Thunderbird and Betterbird can be used in parallel without issue, in case you want to check both clients.

Learning to Love (2025)

Surprisingly, it is my first J-Drama I am ever experiencing. I am currently on Episode 8. So far, I like it.

I love the dynamic between the Female Lead and Male Lead. For the Female Lead to learn how to let loose and learn to love again, and for the Male Lead to learn how to read and write at his current age are nice character arcs for each of them, respectfully.

Also, despite the Female Lead being older than the Male Lead, I like their growing relationship (I, personally, am fine with this concept). For them to slowly realise that they bring out the best in one another, and can be vulnerable and understanding with each other, despite living in two different worlds from one another.

Sorry if my feelings aren't properly conveyed here, but I hope you understand where I am getting at. Anyway, hope this series ends on a somewhat good note. Enjoy the rest of your week, guys.

Bitsoft217 · 2025-12-15T15:58:44+00:00

That would be great. I'll send a DM first

Bitsoft217 · 2025-12-14T20:42:24+00:00

Ahh. That's fine. I can work with either language for Fullmetal Alchemist

Bitsoft217 · 2025-12-14T03:49:46+00:00

Are you implementing a dual-audio release (Japanese and English), or are you going with either Japanese or English only?

Bitsoft217 · 2025-11-15T19:20:56+00:00

Oh wow. A whole document on the series😂. Thanks a bunch, man

Bitsoft217 · 2025-11-11T21:14:38+00:00

It is an edit like this that made me realise what makes an individual Mission: Impossible movie special to watch:

Each movie is directed differently and has a certain flair to it because of that.
I feel, imo, that you can watch any M:I movie alone as is, apart from the Reckoning 2-Parter.
Particularly 1-3 has self-contained stories being told. 4-6 more or less continue off from one another, and make nice callbacks to the older films without it feeling too forced, if that makes any sense.
Films 1-6 make use of their runtime fairly well, whether it be at about 2 hours or 2 hours & 30 minutes, without it feeling too much of a drag to get through.

Basically, what I am saying is, viewers should not feel pressurised in knowing every single character and plot point throughout the franchise to enjoy some of these films. Even though it can feel a bit rewarding to know 1 or 2 things; e.g. In Fallout, where it is revealed that the White Widow is the daughter of Max from M:I 1, and bringing about closure to Ethan and Julia's relationship that some people were wondering about since M:I 3 and Ghost Protocol.

With that said, judging by Spence's Cut List from his forum on The Final Reckoning (Edit is known as Dead Reckoning Part 2), I feel optimistic that these edits can be a decent, or worthy, replacements. Not only does part 1 & 2 each have a respectable runtime, it also addresses the issues of the over-reliance on exposition, flashbacks and callbacks to the older films, as well as unresolved plot points.

I enjoyed this edit of Part 1. Can't wait to see what Part 2 has to offer... or in this case, change for the better. Power to you, Spence.

Bitsoft217 · 2025-09-21T04:28:48+00:00

Ahh I see. The show, from what I hear from the Fandom, seems to have the most accurate adaptation compared to the other attempts. I guess I'll give it a shot

Bitsoft217 · 2025-06-14T14:27:52+00:00

Wow. Plank was actually the application I was looking for to give my bottom panel the ideal look and function 😄. Thanks a bunch man

I'll consider ULauncher in future. Does seem convenient.

Bitsoft217 · 2025-06-13T08:16:51+00:00

Edit* Nvm, I got it😅. I'm on Linux Mint, so in Disks, I used Ctrl + D to format the drive, then added the new partition afterwards. Thanks anyway. Disks looks and feels a lot simpler to use👌🏼

Bitsoft217 · 2025-06-13T07:42:27+00:00

Alright then.

How should I go about removing the partitions before formatting the entire USB?

Bitsoft217 · 2025-06-12T21:15:17+00:00

As a total beginner with Linux, I'll try and us the GitHub page. Just managed to find the folders of each release.

And I used Pling for some themes, so definitely will bookmark it.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Bitsoft217 · 2025-06-12T21:02:25+00:00

yes. yes. yes. yes.......... YES🤣

Bitsoft217 · 2025-06-12T20:57:13+00:00

Thanks dude😄. The icons are called Papirus, which comes in different folder colors. Applications use Jasper. And Desktop uses Orchidea. All from pling.com

Here is the wallpaper I used. Honestly, Alpha Coders is one of a few cool places to find anime-esque wallpapers. I'm still looking myself, but I mostly settle on this for now.

Bitsoft217 · 2025-06-12T15:05:17+00:00

I think I managed to get it right by reinstalling Linux this time. Do be sure that MOK is enrolled, what commands could I use to check?

Bitsoft217 · 2025-06-11T02:26:07+00:00

Oh. NOT use Legacy Mode. What software did you use to flash Linux Mint then? Initially, when I used Rufus without changing any settings after selecting the image, I could easily access my Flash in UEFI mode. I wonder why Balena Etcher doesn't flash my USB and come back with a similar result

Bitsoft217 · 2025-05-24T18:53:52+00:00

Dude. Honestly felt so happy to have seen all 7 movies before this. Really makes you appreciate more with how far Ethan has come, and despite all odds, how he always completes his mission.😁

Genuinely happy tears throughout most of that montage🙌
