Honestly, just go the full 9 lives and become a cat.

This is my biggest lament about getting a 2060 without knowing how important vram is. I can make it perform better and more efficiently a bunch of different ways, but to my knowledge, I can't get around the 6GB vram wall.

Said it before and I'll say it again: It's crazy to me that tone centric fonts never happened. Tone is wildly important in all language, but there's basically no good way to convey tone via text without stating the tone like some Newspeak shit. Meanwhile, we have all these rad fonts just hanging out on the proverbial bench, going totally unused, but I'm cursed to see and use exclusively good Times New Roman, plusgood Helvetica, and doubleplusgood Arial. Literally 1984.

/hyperbole (but I really do think it would be a fun idea and I demand a hyperbole font).

Hey, dunno if you figured it out yet, but creating folders is done in the pear launcher settings (I get to the settings by a "pear actions" widget set to pear settings). From there, it's app drawer > folders > then you can make new folders and add stuff to them.

To the best of my knowledge, Pear Launcher can do everything you're asking for. I haven't used nova in a while, but from what I recall of it, the free version of pear launcher is far more feature rich than nova.

too bad unix time only has 14 years of life left in it.

Edit: this only applies to 32 bit Unix time. The 64 bit lifespan is a little longer, at 584 billion years. Whoops lol.

Useless RGB is overrated. I color coded my keyboard and it's unbelievably helpful, especially for altered keys (ie: media keys/macro keys).

Protip: set up a macro to type out site:reddit.com if you can't be fucked to type after every search.

Nah, AU stands for alternate universe, I learned that when someone once threatened my life with Splatoon characters.

lol I worked at a professional theatre for 5 years (and theatres in general for way longer) and you seem like you're more well versed than I am.

Interesting point about Les Mis and Phantom. I enjoyed Les Mis the last time I saw it, but that was ages ago, during a time that I also liked Phantom (I still like a few songs in phantom, but hoo boy there's a lot of grossly problematic themes in it). Phantom with a high budget can be a blast to watch though, from a technical standpoint. I saw it once in Las Vegas. The chandelier was in 3 pieces hanging above the audience seating, and it slowly lit up and came together above the stage during the overture. It was fucking crazy to see. (awful audio warning: I found a terrible quality video on youtube!)

Haven't seen Wicked, Cats or Hamilton (or basically any broadway show. I'm a heretic, I know lol), so I can't comment on those. I haven't seen Evil dead: the Musical, but I've wanted to for ages. I'm big on Horror movies, and the Evil Dead movies are all wild.

I'm glad you mentioned Moulin Rouge. That movie is so fucking incredible. El Tango De Roxanne has lived rent free in my head since I first saw it and I'm honestly so glad about it.

As for recommendations to check out:

  • Sweeney Todd. The 2007 movie with Johnny Depp is great (and very bloody) but I've seen a few renditions of it live and it's honestly always a great show. Checks a lot of boxes for me (good tunes, dystopian, and a surprisingly heavy story given that the theme is often horror-comedy-esqe).

  • Urinetown. Been a while since I've seen it, but it's a great satirical musical (it makes jabs at a ton of stuff, but it's mostly aimed at capitalism in general).

  • Little Shop of Horrors. This one has a special place in my heart because it's the first musical I worked on in highschool that I actually enjoyed. Not much to say, it's just a fun show.
