Used to keep a terminal sesh up that was just scrolling top on the dev server whenever I felt like being lazy but looking crazy productive. Took my very tech savvy boss a couple months before he finally noticed.

We also appreciate those. But not actively, at least not while in a professional setting. That’d be rude.

The old adage “The worst-dressed nerd in the meeting is the most important one” could use some updating for the modern era to include trans folks with really good fits…

Is it really that bad, though? Compared to spending hours fighting with 3rd party drivers or wine or etc. every time there’s a change to the software in question, restarting to a different partition is pretty trivial. Configure both OSs to mirror non-sys files to network storage or a shared partition (and there’s plenty of ready-made utilities for this) and it’s honestly a pretty easy solution to being stuck with “iNdUsTrY sTaNdArD” software.

I get where you’re coming from, I do. The only reason I’m saying this is because the difficulty in dual booting is often brought up when discussing switching, and it really discourages people that are curious about trying linux (but are still tied to the apple/M$ world) from making the switch when they’re constantly told how hard it is to use both.

Spoiler alert: It’s way better than it was, but it’s still not very good.

At least the name gives you a really good idea of the philosophy driving their UX…

edit: no hang on I meant “the people that choose the name also define the project’s philosophy”

… seven toes??

Fun background info: Trusted Representatives don’t actually carry their shard of the key (to prevent exactly this scenario), they have (iirc) a keycard which allows them to access the secure storage medium where their different pieces are stored.

These seem fragile and very inefficient…

… Debian was on twitter??

… Is this a bit? Because thats some unhinged shit to believe if you’re being serious.

Just to be clear here, Putin isn’t responsible for all the worlds evils, that’s just… well, dumb. Sorry but like, who in their right mind could believe that? Seriously, I don’t know how you could possibly arrive at that conclusion.

And hell, he’s not even responsible for all the evils in the US. But he’s very openly and publicly working with the far right parties here, who are in their turn very open about working with him, and that makes him a very relevant current figure. Not… sure what part of that is a revelation.

Er… no, he’s just responsible for all that evil he’s unabashedly doing right now. And is working very closely with the fascist party in our government. As a result, he’s become an important figure in the political landscape of the US.

It’s so nice having a stable OS to fall back to on for those rare occasions where I screw something up on my arch laptop my arch laptop magically borks itself (How did that happen? Who could have done this?).

This sounds like a great place to mention Linux Mint Debian Edition!

The problem is that other 10% where I have to spend my time trawling the arch wiki to fix my OS instead of like… doing cool things on my computer. If that’s what you enjoy that’s great, but your hobby is not my hobby. I’ve used arch on several of my devices, it can be great! But there’s this idea that arch is the perfect solution to pretty much everyone’s desktop problems and it’s crazymaking to see repeated over and over on here.

Dang it, you gotta come in here and tempt me to distrohop… That’s a dang attractive choice.

Debian with the mint UI. All of the debian memes, but none of the UI headaches!

Yo mama so dumb she stores all her archives as exFAT.

Hey guys I found the pig!
