If the point is that using thorn (þ) then we should also expect the use of anglo saxon runes.

the rest of the text is a transliteration of the opening of beowulf (back?) into runes. Although navy seals copypasta would also have been a stupid gag to do as well.

"[...] bloody anglo saxons [...] and their miserable epic poetry..."

but it’s arguably not technically incorrect.

the letter is not used in english anymore. thus, it is incorrect.

I want something that's stupid easy to install, requires no setup, and has recording and gaming functionality from the beginning. I constantly see people shitting on ubuntu for semi-valid reasons, and I'm open to stable alterantives.

I'm installing it on this laptop :

https://www.laptopsdirect.co.uk/msi-gl62m-7rex-core-i7-7700hq-8gb-1tb-256gb-ssd-15.6-inch-geforce-gtx-105-9s7-16j962-1293/version.asp

NB : This is for mission critical etc laptop. This will be my only daily driver computer, stability is the topmost priority.

BONUS POINTS : If it's debian based so I can run solarus : https://solarus-games.org/

I'm looking for an engine/framework to make a 2d "RPG" (no leveling, etc, akin to Link to the Past).

I actually went to University for games programming, so I understand how games work, how to code them, etc etc. I work as a Test Automation programmer for websites, and I am doing some development on JS as well on a music toy. I am experienced with C#, C++, Java and JS.

The problem I've had in the past is that the frameworks promise the world, but everything I want to start working on is hidden beneath folders and folders of stuff, and the entry point to customize the correct parts seems obscured. Or, working on OpenGL etc are too basic with basically nothing out of the box.

I just want something that will say : here's your main, here's your player character, we've taken care of the collision detection and inputs and rendering, there's no gravity. Paint the tiles on this screen, and get going.

Like the level of expertise, customisation and entry point needs to be clear (or at least there is a guide to get started that I don't have to spend hours and hours on) and the business side is cut and dry and won't cost me to start deveoping. (flat X% after $Y in sales)

I don't mind having to learn a new scripting language as long as it's not drastically different to the object oriented languages I know already. (ie : nothing in Lisp)

Mongols (and Turks) usually picked up new cultural ideas and technology from people they conquered and tried to use them for their own gain. Some even converted to the religious beliefs of the places, which is why islam is so common in central asia.
