# Awesome Stuff
|
||||
|
||||
Inspired by [Awesome](https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome), this is a dumping ground of stuff of interest.

|
||||
> This is going to be long, and will probably be getting a lot of updates.
|
||||
> I intend to just keep adding to this.

## Software
|

|
||||
### Operating Systems
|
||||
|
||||
Honestly can't recommend Windows at all nowadays. It's just... Both spyware and bloatware. It's been enshittified to the point where it's just not worth using in comparison to Linux for most, if not all purposes nowadays, and the only thing it has going for it is existing software, which is a rapidly fading, if not fade***d***, advantage.

|
||||
Windows Recall was especially egregious - The fact that a program that records all your screens, saves it to an unencrypted SQLite database, then feeds it to an AI network was *even on the table* is just... ***YIKES.***

It's a great tool for creating materials, and it's open-source, so you can modify it to your heart's content.

||||
|

> A checklist for improving your personal security. It's a great resource for anyone who wants to improve their security. Also a good pin for public communication.

## Games
|
||||
|
||||
I will be using the Entertainment Software Rating Board's rating system for games, under my judgement if a rating does not already exist.
|
||||
These may not actually be rated by the ESRB, but I will be using their rating system for simplicity.
|
||||
See their [Ratings Guide](https://www.esrb.org/ratings-guide/) for more information about their rating system.
|
||||
|
||||
- [Celeste](https://www.celestegame.com/)
|
||||
***Rated E10 for Everyone 10+ by the ESRB***

||||
|
||||
> What can I say? It's a great game. The story is touching, the gameplay is challenging, and the music is amazing.

|
||||
***Rated M for Mature 17+ by the ESRB***
|
||||
|
||||
> Before Id made DOOM in 1993, they made Wolfenstein, a game about beating up Nazis. Need I say more?
|
||||
They made a new series of games, starting with The New Order, that are a great mix of story and gameplay. The story is great, the gameplay is great, and the music is great. Criminal that there isn't a third one, though.

|
||||
|
||||
***Rated E10 for Everyone 10+ by the ESRB***
|
||||
> I grew up with SA2. Sure, it has plenty of things that did NOT age well - Such as the audio mixing, the music is *twice as loud* as it should be during scenes, I can barely hear characters, or the quality of the ports being pretty abysmal - But it is still quite a fun game. The story is, perhaps, among the best, in the series, and Doctor Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik's characterization is ***OUTRIGHT the best in the series***. The music (Crush 40, anyone?) is also top-notch.
|
||||
If you play this on PC, such as the Steam version, there exists a mod loader, and plenty of mods to improve the myriad issues with the port.
|
||||
Mad Space is a bit maddening (Well, it's in the name I suppose) though, and the removal of the open-world that SA1 had isn't that great.
|
||||

> There's a zombie on your lawn.

> I haven't beaten it in a LONG time, so stay tuned for more thoughts, but it's good.
|
||||
|
||||
## Media
|
||||
|
||||
I will be using the Motion Picture Association's rating system for movies or media in general should it not have its own rating system, under my judgement if a rating does not already exist.
|
||||
These may not actually be rated by the MPA, but I will be using their rating system for simplicity.
|
||||
See the Motion Picture Association's [Film Ratings](https://www.motionpictures.org/film-ratings/) for more information about their rating system.
|
||||
|
||||
I will be using the TV Parental Guidelines's rating system for shows or series, under my judgement if a rating does not already exist.
|
||||
These may not actually be rated by official organizations, but I will be using their rating system for simplicity.
|
||||

||||
### Shows
|
||||
|
||||
> [!note]
|
||||
> It seems Hasbro has started dumping older/discontinued shows onto YouTube for free viewing. I'm not sure if it's region-locked, but it's worth a shot, and I'll be linking to those where possible.
|
||||
> And it's usually the ENTIRE series, so... have fun with that.
|
||||
|
||||
- [One Piece](https://www.crunchyroll.com/series/GRMG8ZQZR/one-piece)
|
||||
***Rating varies depending on parts of the show, and movies and whatnot.***
|
||||
***I rate the show as a range from TV-PG V to TV-MA LV.***
|
||||
|
||||
> Oda had better finish the story. I swear to Satan.
|
||||
> It's a great show... If you have patience. The Netflix adaptation is also pretty good.
|
||||

|
||||
- [Dragon Ball Z](https://www.crunchyroll.com/series/G9VHN9PPW/dragon-ball-z)
|
||||
> Need it any introduction? Watch Kai version if it's too long. Abridged is also an alternative to Kai if you don't mind the story being told more comedically.
|
||||
|
||||
- [Dragon Ball Z Abridged](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2nYozPLpJRE&list=PL6EC7B047181AD013) (and related "movies" and videos) by TeamFourStar
|
||||
***I rate this show and its movies as TV-MA DLSV (the whole shebang, in other words)***
|
||||
|
||||
> It's... The iconic parody of all time. It's a great show, and it's a shame that they aren't doing Buu Saga.
|
||||
> It's... Well. It's a great show, covers the story of Dragon Ball Z up to the Cell saga.
|
||||
Even though the series is more comedy focused, it still manages to tell the story of Dragon Ball Z in an *excellent* way.
|
||||
The creators are also based as hell.
|
||||
...Watch it. Just watch it.
|
||||
The creators are also based.
|
||||
Not appropriate for children, though.
|

|

- [Transformers: Prime](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL7VEq3tXc6hvcP7u7xHqqavDbSarCInI4)
|
||||
|
||||
> Transformers: Prime takes place in the Aligned continuity, and was my first exposure to the franchise.
|
||||
Despite mainly being for kids, it's surprisingly dark and mature. It aged pretty well, too.
|
||||
Like... In the first episode, a character gets brutally and personally killed on screen by Starscream permanently. Then later, ||a character gets tortured by Starscream early on.||
|
||||
...A kids show, folks.
|
||||
I mean, I'm sure a part of it was to afford... Dwayne Johnson as Cliffjumper, but still.
|
||||
It also realistically portrays war, its consequences and compromises, and character struggles.
|
||||
|
||||
- [My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic](https://www.youtube.com/@FriendshipIsMagicOfficial)
|
||||
|
||||
> Despite appearing to be a little kids show, it's actually pretty and famously appealing to adults as well. It's compelling, USUALLY well written (though the later seasons feel rushed at times...),
|
||||
and so on.
|
||||
It ended a while ago and I think the community has taken a turn for the worse since then, but the show itself is still good.

|

He was inactive for a long time, starting again with the resurgence of Nazi activity in the US.
|
||||
Past political content, he also has sub-series within his show, such as "Every Dog Has Its Day", or "Worst Person in the World".
|
||||
He does not stand for this Nazism here in the US, ***and neither should you.***
