…I’ve already realized a few things:
- It’s really nice having a system monitor (gkrellm) that doesn’t crash every hour. Gkrellm for Windows is garbage.
- Apparently running games in WINE has taken a couple of steps backwards. WoW runs worse than I remember, and there’s already been a couple of “so that used to work just fine…but now it’s completely fail,” moments.
- Finding a desktop twitter client that does exactly what I want is damn near impossible, no matter what OS I’m using.
- nVidia’s Xinerama is actually usable, and runs perfectly (or nearly), now.
- Whoever decided to take the maximize, minimize, and close buttons from the right hand side of the window and move it to the left can go find a sword to fall on. I get that that’s Mac OS thing, but it’s god damned retarded. If you like that I can tell you exactly why: you didn’t get hugged enough as a child and now you express it by doing things differently from others SIMPLY FOR THE SAKE OF DIFFERENCE.
- It really is just like riding a bike. You may go slow at first, but it all comes back to you a lot faster than you’d think.
I really like being back in Linux again but there are a couple of “slight” problems that are bugging the shit out of me. Gonna be tough weighing the pro’s/con’s.
