Which Distro for Theatrical Use?

Hello community,

I am tired of windows slowing down my laptop, and I tought I'd give linux a chance. So I learn, that there are many linuxes, and I wonder if it really matters. which one to choose. Can all linux apps be run on all distributions? Is it just a matter of the 'app store' supporting them or not?

I am producing media art for theatre plays. So I have to rely on a stable system as well as the following tools:

  • Blender 3d
  • a DAW
  • Design Software (adobe alternatives)
  • Video Editing & compositing
  • Projection mapping (I fear, there is just mapmap under linux)
  • audio cuing (linux show player)
  • maybe also light show programming (artnet / dmx)

The machine would be a Gigabyte Aero 15x with a dedicated nvidia gfx card, and 8 gigs of ram.

What would you recommend me?

How can I create text-particles from CSV-File

Hello community. I am new with blender, and this is my first post here. I have the following task to master:

I have a CSV-File with 1000 Names. I would like to spread those Names somehow randomly in space. It would be nice for them to be 3D, and not just be flat.

As a bonus, I would like those names to be connected by lines.

I would then animate a Camera flying through that space.

Is that achievable, and how? I'd appreciate any help. Thanks a lot.

5 days a week Gym training suggestions?
  • I am basically using the templates from RPstrength (They now have a cool app). For 5 days it is:

    • Chest, Shoulders, Triceps
    • Back, Traps, Biceps, Forearm
    • Quads, Glutes, Hams, Calves, Abs
    • Shoulders, Chest, Back, Triceps, Biceps, Forearms
    • Glutes, Hams, Quads, Calves, Abs
  • What do you do, when you reach your body goal?

    I have been on a long journey from 25+ % bodyfat to 11% and also packed on a lot of muscles. Now, I never feel satisfied, but there is a point where it is sane, to let it go.

    But I don't want to give up working out. I like it too mucu for that. What could be some new goals, that don't interfere with my gains. I want to keep them.
