If you need an office suite, you can use LibreOffice/OnlyOffice as a full MS Office replacement. OnlyOffice is basically identical to MS Word, Excel, and Powerpoint, and LibreOffice replaces the rest. With MS fonts installed, you should have no trouble writing a .wordx document in Times New Roman.

If you’re a gamer, I recommend Pop!_OS. Everything works out of the box, plus extra compatibility for Nvidia cards. It took me a second to get used to the UI, but now I can’t go back.

Barbara Walters definitely was…

You’ve answered your own question. You like 3rd-person shooter platformers, a genre which isn’t as prevalent as it was in the 6th generation of consoles. Not as many games are coming out that fit your tastes. You’re also nostalgic, which is perfectly fine, but you have to take off the goggles sometimes. I like Mario Sunshine better than a lot of modern 3D platformers, because I’ve been playing it for years and it was a big part of my childhood. But just because I love revisiting that game more than playing a new game sometimes, that doesn’t mean modern games aren’t reiterating and improving upon the things that made it great. A Hat in Time, Psychonauts 2, The Cosmic Shake, Spark the Electric Jester, Orbo’s Odyssey, SEUM, Frogun, New Super Lucky’s Tale, Supraland, Crash 4. So many great 3D platformers in recent years, with a ton of improvements to quality of life and control compared to where we were back in the day, as well as many new concepts.

Also, claiming that PS2 platformers as a whole look better than modern platformers as a whole is ridiculous, and you’re also giving no examples of either case.

E.T. is decent at best. I wanted to watch it as a young kid, but wasn’t allowed. By the time I finally watched it, I found it fell short of my expectations and I found it quite dull. Super 8 was also a middling film, but I thought it was slightly better than E.T.

Man, I just reinstalled this suite :/

Funnily enough, that was my most listened song from them! I got to see them do it live during the Spicy Meatball Tour, and his voice is fucking (fucking) POWERFUL!!!

My top artist was Tenacious D, and my top song was Virtual Insanity by Jamiroquai.

Check out OnlyOffice. It’s a fork of LibreOffice that’s almost an exact clone of MS Office. It’s a fantastic program that should be familiar to anyone coming from Windows.

Since you’re just using a VM, you should try out some other distros and then pick one to install on your machine. Linux Mint is great for new users just switching from Windows. I personally find the KDE Plasma DE to be the best replacement for the Windows 10 GUI, so I’d recommend you check out Kubuntu or KDE Neon.

I’ve been using Pop!_OS recently, and it’s amazing. Everything works out of the box with no need to tweak anything, and I love the workflow features like autotiling and the launcher. The Pop! Shop is also something I’m appreciating more. It’s an excellent place for new users to look for software, and the flatpak support really makes it perfect for me. I’ve been using flatpaks instead of official repositories as much as I can recently, and it’s been a long time since anything I have installed has caused me issues.
