From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I played quite a bit of solo mineclone2/voxelibre. Really good stuff with a surprisingly short wishlist on my part.

It's silly, but one of my favorite things is that it fires up the launcher in under a second. Reminds me of when software wasn't bloated halfway to hell. 😁

The game takes a minute or two to launch though

Really? Mine launches in a few seconds. Maybe I haven't explored enough. 😁

Yeah. Under a second to the launcher, and (just timed it) 6 seconds to load and run my existing world.

When I create a world for the first time it might take a couple minutes, but after the initial creation it's really quick to load up a game
