Granted I’m not a gamer, but I don’t think I’ve ever even heard of prime gaming. I’ve heard of steam though.

Well what’s the number? Don’t leave us hanging.

I worked construction from 14-20. Nowadays I work a cushy desk job. Still whenever we need something sone in our house (which is a lot, my house is a degrading shack) if it’s something I’m comfortable doing I do it myself. Every once in a while there’s a job that just kills me and I feel like I need a week to recover from.

Last weekend I put new drywall up on my kitchen ceiling. I used to do it all the time with ease, by myself, light work. Nowadays I’m glad my wife wasn’t home to see me struggling. I had to pull out all my tricks and it was still fucking rough.

The last place I worked was like this too. Smallish ~50 employee company that big numbers. They had an initiative thing where if they hit 20 million or something like that they would take everyone to cancun, they made 21 and found a way to back out of it. They made a few million off of some applications that I came up with, built, managed, and worked with the sales teams to sell, all along with my normal daily tasks. I was just bored and kind of fucking around. I asked more a measly raise of $10,000 since I recently found out I was the lowest paid dev there (and the best, not bragging it just wasn’t a dev focused company). They pushed it off for so long I found another job and when they said they’d give me a raise to stay I told them I’d need an extra $80,000 now assuming they’d say no, they did. About a year later I’m at my cushy new job and I got a call offering me big bucks to come back because no one could figure out my horrendous code and they were losing clients who wanted new features. I said no. I asked my new boss for a raise after my first year and it took 10 minutes of talking before we were both happy with a number.

What benifit does Mint have over Debian for anything graphical?
