A Free and open source 3d creation suite and video editor.
3d editing: Said to be very difficult to use, and it is. There is an argument that in mastering it one gains a huge set of capabilities with one tool. I was unable to get that far.
Video editing: Defaults are stupid and features are missing. Maybe it’ll be passable in a few years.
It has a portable zip, with no install required. Yay!
TODO – THIS IS UNFINISHED – it needs some redoing, clarification and screenshots.
TODO – make a separate page for Gibbed
It’s difficult to move items between characters.
Gibbed really helps solve this.
This was tested on Windows 8.1 in late 2015, and on Windows 10 in early 2016.
TODO (try harder) – I need to create screenshots and clarify some steps. I feel that some instructions are too vague and may be slightly wrong.

I used to play Borderlands 2 – (2012 game) on the Xbox 360. I wanted to switch to playing on my desktop computer. I bought an Xbox One wired controller so everything should be the same. I achieved complete success.
Read this entire page before beginning.
This was tested on Windows 8.1 in mid 2015.

A cryptographic filesystem.
A fantastic concept and program which I used heavily for a long time across multiple Linux distributions.
Be aware that attacks on people, hardware and implementation are the go-to methods for defeating encryption. Some points:
eCryptfs-mount.sh is my helper script.

I had good experiences with this editor in the distant past.
I generally use GIMP.

All the Earth is in peril, but everyday people have been given super powers.. except half of them become villains, for some reason.
The interface and controls weren’t pleasant for me. Probably the biggest nuisance was not having set a colour scheme on my chest because I made myself bare-chested.

SSH being enabled is also known as having “shell access” enabled. It’s generally considered a risk for various reasons, most notably because runaway processes can be an issue.
