Windows.

Work supposed to be done on the machine would be interesting.

dino,

When the description of a program on gh gives you more headache…I think its not doing a good job.

dino,

Most shortsighted answer of the day. Great now you have this outdated executable on your system and you mabye are not even sure this was installed through appimage, because how should you know when your launcher is not telling you anything? golfclap

Are there any Windows-exclusive programs you use?

I had to test/fix something at work and I set up a Windows VM because it was a bug specific to Windows users. Once I was done, I thought, “Maybe I should keep this VM for something.” but I couldn’t think of anything that wasn’t a game (which probably wouldn’t work well in a VM anyway) or some super specific enterprise...

The truth about linux having 15% market share in India.

I am from india. These numbers are inflated due to our population and government and health sector office pc using linux (ubuntu). These office pcs just require a chrome browser and all the work is done on the browser Nobody here cares what os they use in their office pc. I don’t see anyone here switching to linux on their...

dino,

By SFF you are talking small form factor? To my knowledge there is only one big player in this field which is Intel NUC and I am not even sure THEY have business support. Thats a big argument for laptops, because you get proper business support compared to niche products like SFF devices.

But maybe I completely missed your point.

dino,

they just use their phone because pc hardware is expensive and phones prices are cheap.

Lol, this is so wrong and misleading. Like the whole post. Even for 350 dollars you could buy a used laptop which probably is more able to properly browse/word process than any of your smartphones.

dino,

For text processing? Okay, checks out.

dino,

You work in IT but you distinguish between desktop systems and laptops? Why?

dino,

Yes, and I place the smartphone on my smartphoneholder glasses so I can actually see what I am typing on my bluetooth keyboard… oyoyoyoyoy

dino,

I mean we are using Exchange email accounts at work with thunderbird, would be really lol if emails just get “lost”. But yea for sure a problem of Thunderbird. No user nor microsoft problem… ;>

dino,

Kali?

dino,

Sane defaults, thank you.

dino,

What is the appeal, I understand fb2k was the shit back in the days. But nowadays I want a music player with elegant defaults instead of customization?

dino,

Biggest gripe with cmus are are the hotkeys, its totally unintuitive and frustrating if you don’t use it daily and everywhere. Additional small gripe: no album covers, but thats with most terminal players.

dino,

That sounds like an excuse to waste lifetime. A good UI should be what makes or breaks an audio player. If I have to enter text queries to play songs this might work after I configured a script which handles all the shit I want to do OR the UI is in itself easy to use so I don’t need to go to that length.

dino,

Its the best distro for gaming. Valve is using it, rolling distro.

dino,

nala

dino,

Why play the old iterations? Is there a reason? I think the newer ones are more “beginner friendly”? With training modes and such.

dino,

Thanks for the link, so whats left is to have a proper rollback/snapshot feature. I know there are snapper integrations with btrfs for void. But they are not on par with e.g. Opensuse Tumbleweed.

dino,

The suggestions made here are already spot on and I can just support the suggestion to use the least amount of extra repos as possible. Packman is the only one I’d consider, also check your repos regularly and see if you can make sense which is what, otherwise get rid of the ones where you have no clue why you had them in the first place (obviously check first which packages they install).

dino,

yayja, real nice and elegant tiling window manager for people which are fed up with tedious configuration and manual tiling of e.g. i3wm. Really want to test it for gaming at some point.

dino,

More upvotes needed.

dino,

Not sure what you are saying?

dino,

I am long-time Tumbleweed user and it really boggles my mind how something like this goes past “quality control” and “testing”.

dino,

Best pw manager.
