    I had a phone call with my Dad today since I'll be visiting him for the month this Friday and apparently my newest stuffed animal I got off eBay arrived! Or technically, my oldest. (should note this isn't the exact one I've gotten, same plush different listing.) It's Hoppopotamus from The Wuzzles! She's my current obscure character obsession and since she's from a show made to sell children toys obviously I, the 20 year old grown man, had to buy the toy they were selling. Thankfully, it turns out the plushies of her on eBay were pretty cheap! Guess there's so little people nostalgic for it there's like zero demand for these. Most cool thing about her is that she's the oldest stuffed animal I currently own, the oldest I've owned before was a plush of Oblina from Aahhh! Real Monsters from 1997 (I think?) and this one is from 1984. That's exactly 20 years before I was born! And currently 41 years old! The age worries me a bit because I don't know if it'll be in the best quality but I could probably fix her up if I have to. Can't be that hard, right? I've been so excited since I heard the news that today has felt really, REALLY slow compared to normal. The next 3 days are gonna feel like the next 3 years at this point.

    This game seems so cool and I REALLY want to play it but there's a serious issue with the controller support! See, my controller of choice is the 8-Bit Do Pro 2 and in order to use it on Linux I have to have it set to X-Input mode. And for some reason, the game detects that as a PlayStation controller. Even worse, the buttons aren't even in the same layout as the PlayStation one. On PlayStation controllers the Triangle button is the top button, while on my 8-Bit Do Pro 2 the button detected as the Triangle is Y, which is the left button. This makes the game basically unplayable for me as I CANNOT play this game with a keyboard. I've tried, I can't do it.

    Hi, welcome to the site! I'd be happy to chat with you! Just one question though, what exactly do you mean by playing the game?

    Yeah that's the exact reason I stopped using those types of things on my gaming PC, since I'm kinda forced to use Windows on it I felt it was necessary to NOT mess with much deep system stuff. I only got that stuff on my laptop because I was under the assumption it'd be YEARS before something would break and by then I'd likely have a newer laptop. It only took like, two months apparently.

    So unfortunately, Reunion7 broke a deep system file in Windows so I would've had to reinstall the OS all over again. I got tired of doing that so I finally caved to my friends suggestion and installed Linux Mint. I have already fallen in love with it. Looks good, feels good, and everything generally runs much better! This is what my new desktop currently looks like,

    I really do NOT like Equestria Girls, I just don't think the "human" world is interesting and 99% of the character designs are VERY unappealing because of the way they made the humans look. Seriously, they do NOT fit well in G4's style well at all and the decision to make their skin colors their coat colors but with less saturation goes from fine to ugly depending on the character. If you've seen EQG Big Mac you know what I mean. But, despite all that, I really like EQG Fluttershy. Out of all the characters in the show I think she was translated to being a human the best. She had the least changed about her in the best way possible and it helps that she's also the best designed. The skin color issue I have with them usually is negated fully for her and she has a REALLY good outfit.

    In all honesty, the only TRUE way G5 could've been saved would've just been fully leaning into doing something new and being unique. Many ideas they had were honestly great and the new main cast were likable, but the haphazard connections to G4 just completely invalidate most of them. Plus, while the whole idea of a future more technically advanced Equestria basically having our level of tech is a really cool concept (so much so I came up with it a year before they did, take that Hasbro!) they did the absolutle LAMEST possible things with it.

    Honestly, i'm starting to think at this point Hasbro has just given up trying to do anything with the My Little Pony franchise for the time being. Generation 5 was a flop that they doomed from the start by trying to connect such a different version of the world to the previous and Pony Life was proof they couldn't just slap the G4 cast into a new show and have it be an insta-success. And even if they could get something good it would NEVER be as much of a moneymaker as it was when it was one of the biggest things in 2010s pop culture. They just completely fail to see why Friendship is Magic was such a big thing in the first place and it sucks.

    I still unironically listen to this song all the time, it's so catchy.

    Windows 7 is my favorite version of Windows, it's the perfect amount of pretty aesthetics, usability, and customization. Last version I feel where you could really personalize your computer to fit yourself without having to download dozens of external applications. I'm so glad there's so many projects to use W10 to revive it. Yeah honestly WindowBlinds sucks, the modified version of W10 I use for this uses some other stuff to achieve the look. I don't know what exactly they use, but it's pretty damn accurate. I feel like if I didn't tell anyone this was just W10 with skins and modifications I could genuinely trick someone into believing it's real W7.
