Haven't used Ubuntu since they started using Unity as their desktop environment. Thought about going back to Kubuntu, and I might still, one day. But I do use Wine for some 32 bit games.

Ubuntu, though... So many cool distros out there. I no longer see Ubuntu any different than Apple or Microsoft, anymore.

Quoting: Ehvis
Quoting: Projectile VomitAs a struggling, professional musician looking to shop his music to video game and movie producers in the very near future, I've gotta say, this really sucks.
Do you think it'll make any difference? I have a friend who is a composer. The only paid work he gets it through people he knows. It seems that in the TV/Movie business it doesn't matter if you are good, but if you know the right people. The game industry in only slightly better.
Granted- getting paid work through people we know (as musicians) is pretty common. I have a few more advantages than that, but seeing this posted did elevate concern that this may be the next direction game producers will go.
