I installed it following a guide where it had me doing my own partitions and encryption using LUKS in around 30 minutes.

So you’re saying you lie to try and change reality or present it in a different way?

That’s horrible and I certainly don’t subscribe to this mentality. I will discuss things with people with an open mind and a willingness to change positions if presented with new information.

We are not arguing out of some tribal belief, we have our morals and we will constantly test them to try and be better humans for our fellow humans.

Yeah OP said they had a late shower that night which get my mind out of the gutter.

Thanks for the answer.

I find it fascinating to graph things like this and the trends you can notice. Which further highlights how big corporations are able to make insane predications because of the sheer number of data points they have.

What caused the massive spike in humidity in the bedroom shortly before midnight?

My mind went to a dirty place is all I’m saying.

So I actually did it and wiped my Windows PC, nothing on there I needed to keep.

Set up Fedora and added the Nvidia Drivers.

Shut down for a few days and in my next boot I downloaded CoolerControl. Then my networking died and I’m at a loss as to what happened.

And people said it was just the same as using windows, yet me a massive nerd, software developer was stuck without ever having attempted to play games.

Cross picket lines? /s

I just replied this to the parent comment.

Furthermore even if a card is skimmed these days, at least in the UK, it’s still unlikely transactions would be processed online.

That’s because it’s become so commonplace now for transactions to pop-up in the banks app on the owners phone and they must confirm the transaction and / or receive a code via SMS. Some just use SMS as a means to confirm a transaction.

I guess one vector for attack still remains and that is SIM swapping, but even that is more difficult these days due to widespread awareness from carriers.

Thanks. I will do.

Thanks for this.

Maybe it’s just the Package Manager Console inside Visual Studio Professional as “add-migration” or “update-database” don’t work unless capitalised.

What distro would you recommend, I’m prepared to try over the weekend.

How does it work with GPU drivers for a GeForce RTX 4080?

Anything else I need to be aware of

What are you writing code for?

I literally can’t think of an example where ssh’ing into a terminal is going to give good workflow. Just using Nano or Vi?

Like no IDE.

Makes sense for sysadmin or something but little sense for developers and engineers writing code to build enterprise software.

Same.

• Mac - Fast, user friendly, and UNIX based.
• Windows - Fast (I have a beast), bloated, stupid command prompt (“Add-Migration”, capital letters really.), wants to spy on me.
• Linux - Fast, a lot of work to get everything working as you would on Windows or Mac and I’m past those days, I just want to turn the thing on and play Factorio or Minecraft, not figure out if my 4080 will run on it etc.

it’s almost like people make choices to suit their needs and there isn’t a single solution for everybody.

I wonder what the industry standard is for developers? Genuinely. I’ve heard it’s Max, but my company is all in on Microsoft, not really heard of companies developing on Linux. Which isn’t to say Linux doesn’t have its place, but I’m aware this place is insanely biased towards Linux.

We use windows PCs at work as software engineers now, but when I was training I used a MacBook Pro M1 with 16GB of RAM and that thing was incredibly performant.

I know it in vogue to shit in Apple, but they build the hardware and the software and they’re incredibly efficient at what they do and I don’t think I ever saw the beachball loading icon thing.

Now the prices they charge to upgrade the RAM is something I can get behind shitting on.

To each their own I guess, I prefer to just abstain from mockery as I don’t see how it changes anything.

That said I respect your right to write what you want and hope you have a nice rest of your day. 😊

I would argue getting mad over something so trivial as sad.

The genocide being committed in Palestine is something that makes me mad.

The fact that we are happy for our largest companies to outsource work to poorer countries makes me mad.

The fact that corporations seemingly control the world and don’t pay their fair share makes me mad.

Apple making a MacMini with a button on the bottom is irrelevant to me, in the grand scheme of things it’s not even an issue.
