    I was in same danger until I just tryharded the difficult bosses. They're really tough compared to previous Metroids and I haven't got used to that. Btw, did you drop your game soon after release? A post-release update gave a rookie difficulty mode that might give some mercy on next playthroughs.

    Super and Echoes might be my favourites as well. Also shoutout to Fusion and Zero Mission. They were good too, although they owe so much to Super.

    Metroid 2 turned its technical limitations into claustrophobic feeling. It has aged surprisingly well if you disregard the visuals. I started my Metroids with Prime, but og M2 is the oldest I have actually played through. NEStroid has many outdated features that makes the gaming impractical like starting with 30 health, slow healing, save system, difficulty curve etc. Playing M2 felt closer to Super than NES. The spider ball was also neat. I even liked the experimental soundtrack even though that's an unpopular opinion.

    Despite ideological relatedness they really weren't in good terms. China and Soviet Union even had an armed border conflict in 1969. They've also had those old area disputes still in 2000s as well.

    Public platforms could still have issues with privacy too. The platform could profile its users, sell that information and bombard targeted ads or algorithm curated content at users. These aren't a thing here in Lemmy or elsewhere fediverse, other than Threads...

  • Audio production oriented distribution recommendations?

    I have tried some KXStudio and Ubuntu Studio stuff first time about 10 years ago. I guess that's still a valid option too.

    Also I've already made my whole discography purely under Linux for 10+ years, no turning back. There's still that much stubbornness left :p

  • Any recommendations for easy-to-use Linux distribution for audio production? I might try PipeWire installation too if it's stable and compatible enough. I've been using debian based distros for 10+ years for now: started with Ubuntus and the last half I've spent with Debian 9/10 but I've become tired of fixing things. I've considered MX Linux and LMDE. I have some experience with them already (although haven't tried Mint's Debian variant yet). For years I've been bridging JACK and pulseaudio, but it's never been optimal, hence considering PipeWire. I read somewhere that wire plumber package in MX is broken. Not sure about the current state. I probably need to know things like these beforehand when installing a distro or another.

    Has anyone had luck upgrading a project from 4.0 to 4.1?

    Hmm, not sure if a bug or a bug fix but this slightly broke one system of mine. I had layers of sprites and when I scaled them the offset used to be synced with changes, but not anymore.
