Yeah this was an update from June. I've been using Rider 2024.2 when writing C# for my own personal Godot project(s) for the last month or so. I can say it's been pretty smooth. All of the friction I encountered was mostly in setup. You have to point Rider at your Godot binary to ensure it can launch the editor, specific scenes, or a headless language server. This was slightly difficult at first because I was using the Godot flatpak, but I got it sorted out. Most features you'd expect (syntax highlighting, goto definition/invocation, automatic imports, etc.) are there and the IDE is capable of launching specific packed scenes or the editor itself if you need it. I can't speak to how this plugin compares to other engine plugins (Unity), but I have yet to run into any issues.

Let's go deeper. Liquids are pretty crazy, am I right?

I'm not so sure about all perpetual licenses being scams. I've personally used Jetbrain's perpetual fallback license for the 2018 version of their IDEs for 4+ years until I decided to renew. I never once felt scammed there, so I would say there IS a right way to do perpetual licenses.

Cult of the Lamb - Got this for my birthday from my buddy and it's been very solid. I see why the reviews hype this game up; it's a weird rpg with base building elements and that's right up my alley. I've been playing it on the steam deck with a conservative power profile and it's been a lot of fun.

Tactics Ogre Reborn - I'm a FF Tactics fan and I was told this game would scratch the itch. So far I can say it's at got a captivating story. It's great that my choices matter in this game and that character development is based on those choices. The gameplay is familiar and fluid. The AI also seems to scale well with the difficulty setting. I'd say fans of FF Tactics should definitely pick this up.

Every track on this album is sick and it came at a time when the underground rap scene really needed something modern to set it apart from all the emerging sub-genres of Hip Hop and rap

I can't remember how I rescued it now but managed to get it back without a reinstall

You could've booted into a previous generation where you still had all those things on your system. The glory of atomic distros :)

I did for some time. There's beauty in the simplicity and flexibility of Alpine, plus BusyBox is great once you understand all the weird quirks between it and coreutils. As unpopular as it might be, I actually really like OpenRC. Alpine feels pretty close to BSD if you're familiar with that family of operating systems. These days I use it for just about all my servers save for a few Nix boxes.

If you decide to explore this route, here are a couple tools I found useful at the start:

• Conty - A single executable that launches applications in a standalone Linux Container
• x11docker - Run GUI apps and desktop environments in docker and podman containers.

Also might behoove you to check out Alpine community's documentation on chroots in case you need specific software that isn't available otherwise.

Since no one answered you here, I'll say distrochooser.de isn't bad at all. For the new linux user who is comfortable enough trying new things, I think it's perfect. It does lose its usefulness if you've already tried all of the options it offers, but at that point you probably don't need distrochooser anyway.

The Asahi Linux project provides a Fedora-based experience for people using Apple Silicon. It works well for the most part but there are features that are still being developed.

As for Windows, I don't know of any methods to get Windows running outside of macOS, but many people utilize Parallels for Windows apps or the desktop experience.

Here's my top 8 in no particular order

• Golden Sun / The Lost Age
• Drill Dozer
• Kirby Nightmare in Dreamland
• Summon Night Swordcraft Story 1/2
• Mega Man Battle Network 3, 5, and 6 (either flavor of each is good)
• Mother 3
• Astro Boy Omega Factor
• Sonic Battle

The ReadMe states these are all courses taught at reputable universities. Do you know of any courses taught at these universities that utilizes Rust or C/C++? Not asking to criticize or anything, I'm legitimately curious because I too would like to see more focus on these languages over Java.
