The Programmers Solid 3D CAD Modeller
In general, this is a wonderful program. A great editor, and it’s quite easy to use.
Unfortunately, it really is for programmers. While I can muddle through everything, I’m not a programmer so it’s extremely time consuming for me to make anything.
I had good experiences with this editor in the distant past.
I generally use GIMP.

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.

The current god of file managers.
It’s bloody amazing, and does so much “just right”. I can tell that the author has his head on straight. It ought to be the default in every Linux distribution which uses GTK+.

A fixed-angle-view roguelike.
My general conclusion is that it’s a good game, but doesn’t have enough variety of abilities.
Path of Exile – (2013 game) is better in terms of difficulty, complexity and player-immersion. In fact, Diablo 3 has been copying features straight from Path of Exile. Doing things badly, but, still, obviously copying.

A VoIP client.
Particularly awesome not just because of it’s spectacular quality, but because it’s free (client and server), and forces all of its users to fix their fucking microphone settings so everyone else doesn’t have to constantly fiddle with their per-user volume.
You can also run your own server “Murmur”.

A semi-light web browser. It’s been creeping in as many features as possible over the years.

A light xterm. And it’s actually lighter! Not tabbed.
I got this working with a nice vga font from DOSEmu. See 9×15 versus DOSEMU’s vga font. However, I learned that aterm does not support unicode. It suggested rxvt-unicode, and I got it working with a nice unicode vga font. See Unicode VGA font for that info.
