  • It’s more of a personal one.

    I made my first touch game in Unity. I tested all the system and everything worked after weeks of testing and I wasn’t able to find more bugs.

    I gave my phone to my wife and asked her to try it. Immediately she was able to get the character to warp across the screen. I didn’t code this and based on my code this was impossible to happen.

    After more testing I discovered that it wasn’t my code which was bugged but Unity’s. Since she was touching the screen in a way that it didn’t register that her finger was removed from the screen.

    Ever since all my games touch inputs have manual timers to ensure that a touch is actually registered. And I give her my games to test since she usually breaks it in weird and wonderful ways.




  • I’ve used a fair share of video editors over the years. Sony Vegas, Adobe Premiere, DaVinci Resolve and KDENlive.

    Even in Linux Resolve is the better editor and works with my workflow. However the hardware requirements is large, and the use of ffmpeg to convert mp4 aac to a useable format is annoying on Linux, but nothing a batch script can’t help with.

    KDENlive feel like an in between step of Windows Movie maker, and. Vegas. It has the functionality of a more advanced video editors, but its UI makes it feel as restrictive as Movie Maker.

    There is a strong app here, it just needs polish like Audacity is getting. Hoping it gets better, since actual competition in Linux is a win for everyone.













  • There are a lot of good reasons from other users in this thread which explains why not to trust the company. My reason is that Manjaro as an OS is broken.

    I’ve ran it on 2 laptops and both had system breaking bugs which corrupted the install after a few months. I tried installing just from their repo I’ve tried being careful when I update but every time the system would one day update and never turn back on.

    Arch especially AUR supported arch is amazing. But Manjaro isn’t the way to use it.
