poinck , to linuxmemes in To be honest, it is quite complicated now as well with all of the proprietary software

What you can find in dconf is well organized compared to what is inside of the regedit hell.

poinck , to linux in When do you consider a system to be bloated?

Exactly, this is the reason I use Gentoo on my Zen3 12c w/ 32gb RAM. Smooth and clean. Nothing should stutter below 60 FPS or lagging when I hit a key on the keyboard.

poinck , to linux in When do you consider a system to be bloated?

Gentoo user here. I look at system load while compiling. (: But most of the time I can use my PC while portage is doing it’s job.

poinck , to programmerhumor in Junior Dev VS Senior Dev

VSCode has theme support; there are light themes, that are not so bright and dark themes that aren’t that dark.

I prefer a very dark gray, a very good font (Iosevka, tuned to my needs) and an appropiate font size (because wearing glasses).

I hope, I never get this senior title. It is complete BS to me. And I am glad, that my junior status is gone for good and I have a job title that does not try to tell something about my expierience!

poinck , to linux in Trying to ditch windows

If you don’t play the latest game titles with DRM you should be good to go on Linux: Steam runs great in a flatpak sandbox.

I don’t know how compatible mono is with dotnet. Interestingly, some game launchers need it and protontricks can handle many issues. Have look at protondb. Back to work: Someone needs to confirm whether MSSQL server can be run on Linux, but I am almost sure that you won’t be able to run the gui of it. But you can connect to it using DBeaver (Java-based) or a VSCode plugin. As for C# development on Linux, I don’t know.

I wish I could switch to Linux at work, too, but standardization of work environments seems to be the problem. I would even consider Ubuntu 22.04 LTS if my employer woul allow it. Last time I asked, time was the real reason. Time savings in the long run, currently don’t matter. I will ask later and if they still tell me, it’s too risky, I will look elsewhere.

Our dev setup doesn’t even have the constraints you have for your work. It is all docker-based with Ubuntu Linux containers. It would run faster on Linux even if we could switch to WSL2. And I would argue, that Linux is more standardized than Windows.

I hope you get your stuff running on Linux; market share needs to go up so that all the managers don’t fear it. (:

poinck , to linux in OpenSUSE has the best installation menu of any OSs ever made

With Gentoo, you can choose any live-iso, open a terminal and start installing. (:

poinck , to linux in OpenSUSE has the best installation menu of any OSs ever made

It needed many reinstalls! So yes, many times, indeed.

poinck , to startrek in Who would you rather hang out with: Romulans or Vulcans?

Vulcans.

Logic dictates it.

poinck , to linux in Linux continues to be above 4% on the desktop

I know at least one person who switched back to Windows but claimed there was no choice. Maybe the people arround that person making the switch to Linux initially does matter. And if they are (still) Windows users, it can happen at the first sign of trouble; especially when they are stubborn Windows users.

Guys, there are people out there Windows is the only OS they want to use despite all the problems.

Ja, bitte erklärt es mir. [=

Disclaimer: I use gnome-console as my terminal emulator; switched from gnome-terminal ~2 years ago.

poinck , to programmerhumor in Daylight saving creator left the chat....

What about time on a different planet? What would be a common time"zone" for Mars and Earth?

poinck , to programmerhumor in How do we tell him ?

But sometimes Copilot just uses too much words to present the answer, so I use ChatGPT which can be personalized.

(Maybe it is possible with Copilot, too, maybe I have to ask how to do it)

poinck , to memes in It’s liquids all the way down

It depends, I propably won’t understand the most english idioms, but I am able to hate the ones in my native language, because some of them are very stupid. ^^

poinck , to linuxmemes in The installation process of different Linux distributions

Meanwhile in Gentoo: Still compiling.

Oh wait: binpkgs, update is done and I don’t have look at NixOS anymore. [=

poinck , (edited ) to linux in What is the most visually pleasing package manager (in terminal)?

I can’t remember ever having a glibc related update problem. eselect news is always there for me. (:

I only have rarely a perl update related problem, but usually solvable with a world update. And since there are now binpkgs I only compile what has differing useflags from the selected profile. Portage has never been better!
