  • The blogger fails to notice the difference between a music player/manager and an audio player.

    The audio player plays audio files, that’s it while the music player manages music/allows playlist and whatnot.

    And I thought the controversy was that Decible was written in JavaScript/GJS and not that the blogger is an idiot with a blog.

    Now, picture a new Linux user deciding to try GNOME for the first time or choosing a distribution that offers a vanilla GNOME experience. One of the first things they’ll likely do is test the multimedia capabilities. They double-click on an audio file, and… well, that’s what I’d call a disappointing introduction to Linux

    Actually its not disappointing at all, the audio plays just like the user would expect.






  • Games of experienced Players should exist. DMs/GMs invest tons of hours/years into the game and have equally much world building in which someone can immerse themselves. Now you have a newbie at a table you never had experienced that said world, concept that are second nature to the experienced players and DM/GM are foreign to them and need to be explained… In much detail. So while the experienced players immerse themselves in the deep pool the newbie stands in the kiddie pool. Sure both types of players at the same table roleplay, but it’s just not on the same level.

    So on the other hand. Games for newbies should exist as well. Games with a patient and understanding DM/GM.
