What’s a token ring?

Also I’m pretty sure I still have a box of 3.5” they can have lol

Do they expect someone to work at cost for them? Running a company has overhead.

It sounds like they know what the code should do generally, but either didn’t design it to be debuggable or have no idea what they are doing.

Everyone has their own way of doing things and when you commit you need to make sure you deliver a quality product.

Bug hunting sucks, especially with other people’s design.

Nah fam.

Years ago it was “Don’t be evil”. Now it’s “Dont be evil(TM)(1)(2)”

(1) it is okay to be evil if the profit would be outrageous (2) if it’s questionable, we ignore the evaluation to see how much profit it generates first

No, the game data itself is 1 TB, but 29TB is their code to change colors

I only joke about Arch being the superior distro because, well, I use it and because it’s apparently a thing.

I actually don’t have any strong feelings about Ubuntu. It’s a distro. It works. I only use Arch because of the AUR (I’m lazy, okay?). I don’t have strong feelings about it either. Linux is configurable to basically exactly what you want. Once (or if) you get into customization you just pick the distro that allows you to get to what you want faster.

I do have strong feelings about Windows though.

I don’t know what it looks like now. In 2019, at least in one of the cities I went to, it seemed like everyone had a XiaoMi

Look in the OS provided “App Store” first - GUI or not, your choice.

Can’t find what you’re looking for? Look for a TRUSTED alternative App Store source. Then check the App Store again.

Still can’t find it? Look to see if there is a package available that your OS can recognize (different based on what flavor of Linux you’re running)

Still can’t find it? See if you can find the code to build the dang thing yourself.

… did everyone remove the media drive off laptops? There are also external media drives.

Red hat based? Install the RPM. Debian based? Install the deb, generally? Install from the repository. You can also install from source if you’d like

Gen Z are those who can’t remember 9/11

It’s a different paradigm for windows users. “Why won’t this exe/msi install on my computer?”

But also, once you realize the unlimited potential to customize it’s pretty special. I, for one, hate using anything without a tiling windows manager.

Can you not order Ubuntu on a DVD anymore? Also you’re explaining dual boot. You can just single boot linux

 

Is there a friendly alternative to VMWare/Virtualbox? I would move back to Virtualbox, but it's now owned by oracle
