Nice videos! 5*

If I may I'd recommend newbies looking for a utility knife get a Mora and use it for their average daytrip. The idea being to test what they realistically need and then serving a niche as dirty job knives.

With the observations they make they should be able to work out additional capabilities they need ie: More length, width, heft; a different blade geometry or a more ergonomic handle. Some of the more tacticool knives come up woefully short in comparison. My 0.02 €.

Its true, and I think it mostly boils down to thickness, that most tacticool knives are just to fat! For some reason people think the wider the better and steel just isnt tough enough unless it is at least 1/4" thick.

there are some windows emulator for linux, usually comes with it, with those you can run windows programs on linux, look it up

[QuietBearr]

Yea that is why I said to use an emulator like WINE if you dont want to dual boot, still most just dual boot to play games, as WINE isnt always dependable.

[QuietBearr]

Yea back on Ubuntu anyway now, quick and painless conversion as always. I will check it out.

LOL looks like we where thinking the same thing! LOL I just use Linux, Ubuntu actually, but for a while I dual booted. I do miss my games, but I really havnt looked into how to play them, I tried the wine but I was missing some stuff and I havnt got it yet, I may just dual boot a windows OS in the background.

It is nice to be free though!

[QuietBearr]

I may make some in the future...

As for playing PC games, what most people do is either dual boot with a windows os as an option to play your games (Linux is really easy to install as a dual booting OS, really easy so you keep windows as well), or use an emulator like WINE that works with many windows applications.

i cant recommend kubuntu, but e.g. for ubuntu there is an interesting new program, a very simple app. youtube: watch?v=9ljEb1PdEdM

I run as many OS programs on my computer as I can, but I would one day like to completely eliminate microsoft from my life. I suppose maybe I could at least get a computer to run both windows and linux on while I'm learning, and eventually just use windows for games. Interesting idea...

[wcropp1]

Perhaps you could one day make a video on how to make the switch from Windows/Mac to linux for dummies? Open source programs and "platforms" or whatever things like Ubuntu are not too complex to get your hands on, but actually using the system seems slightly intimidating. I also like some computer games which, as of yet, haven't been linux compatible. Is there any way to get around that? Prob not. Don't know if you would be interested in making these kind of videos, but I would certainly watch.
