I want to introduce some of my friends to Minecraft. They have never heard of it before and I am having trouble explaining them from the beginning since the scope of the game is very vast.

I want to give them a preview of the game before they start playing themselves, so I would prefer a video explaining the same. I tried to search for it on YouTube but I could personally find no video that could explain the premise and potential of the game from scratch. I tried to explain them via playing the game on my device too but that was of no meaningful help either since I have no personal worlds or builds to show.

Could someone please help me recommend some useful resource for this matter? I am sure they will come to love it once they get to properly understand it.

Though I appreciate the reply, I was looking for the difference between a remaster and a remake specifically. I think both of them should mean the same thing essentially.

What is the difference between the former two?

I got my gaming rig recently and played all the releases up to Rogue only this year. I assure you my specs are modest enough and it's just the game that is poorly optimised. Even Watchdogs 2 ran better than this.

Unity was the game I was most hyped for, especially because of its graphics and bigger maps. I even went to speedrun through the last three games to catch with the lore and begin playing it as soon as possible.

Alas, my PC couldn't meet up with the heightened hardware requirements and I had to give up after barely finishing the tutorial with the awful frame rates even with the settings set to minimal.

 

I recently learned about LocalSend and was intrigued by how it functioned by only using the WiFi network of the devices. I did not know my LAN had these capabilities.

Now that I've learned about it, I am excited to know if there is anything else I can do with it. Perhaps there could be a way to send prank notifications to all the connected devices, create a private chat room, or have custom LAN parties.

I genuinely do not know anything about how WiFi or LAN in general works in this matter. Is it possible for me to build my own applications that make use of these features? If so, I would love to get a direction on what resources or guides I should be looking for. If not, I would still be happy to use similar pre-built applications.

Thank you so much! I checked that he starred in the show 'Severance' which I just watched recently, which is why I could recognise his face.

Who's the guy in the second panel? I swear I've seen this guy somewhere recently and it's been seriously bugging me

BTW it's cake day for what was supposed to be a throwaway account

By the looks of the image, you opened this post on your laptop, opened the camera app of your phone, took a screenshot of the app and took ANOTHER screenshot of the app along with the preview of the previously taken screenshot and finally posted it.

I guess it's your first day too

I think the use of this meme format already counts as one

  1. For Linux enthusiasts, how do you decide which distro you would like to try out next among the plethora of options that are available? The difference I perceive between majority of distros gets smaller the more I try to understand about them.

  2. What are the minimum issues I am likely to face using the most beginner friendly distro like Mint for programming and light gaming?

  3. How customizable is the GUI in Linux Mint specifically? What if I want a start menu like Windows 10 with the app list and the blocky app tiles? What about those custom widgets I see in hardcore Linux users' desktops?

  4. I heard there is no concept of file extensions in Linux. How am I supposed to work on my projects that I imported from my Windows machine that do contain extensions?

Bonus: Who creates those distro icons in color coded ASCII in the system info command in the terminal?

I actually meant the home page of your blog site, but modifying each blog in a similar fashion could also be great if possible, although that may also depend on the type of audience you are expecting that would read them.

A few of these articles genuinely interest me. I may consider reading them whenever I get time later.

I'm not much expert at reading blogs either lol. I think my suggestion as a novice reader would be to include a short piece of intro text at the beginning of the page to describe what topics the blog talks about (maybe sum it in about 1-2 sentences). That way I would instantly get to know if it is something I am interested to read or not.

But then again, I am a novice so I don't know any better 😔

As a Linux newbie, all I know about Arch Linux is that it is a DIY distro where you assemble the entirely of the OS by scratch. Somehow it feels like it is too easy than it needs to be, even if it is primarily meant for experienced users. I imagine it to be less like building your PC from parts bought from the market and more like building each and every component of the PC by scratch along with building the PC, which I assume to be much harder for the average consumer. It seems absurd how it is possible for a single person to incorporate the innumerable components required for functionality in a personal system that does not crash 100% of the time due to countless incompatibility errors that come with doing something like this.

I would like someone to elaborate on how it feels to 'build' a system software by yourself with Arch and how it is reasonable to actually do so in a simple language. I do have some experience in programming, mainly in webdev, so it's not like I need a baby-like explanation in how this works but it would be nice to get to know about this from someone who could understand where this confusion/curiosity is coming from.

What if I am just imagining the high pitch sound in my mind whenever I hear about or think of tinnitus just like how someone tells you to imagine a whale and you form a mental image of a whale? I don't pay attention to the noise while I'm busy doing stuff but once I think about it, it is as hard to stop noticing it similar to being told to breathe manually, and it gets very annoying after some time. Is it what tinnitus really is?

 

My latest personal project would look like this:
