  • If you actually do work, getting used to a tiling WM is like a drug. I can't live without it now.

    (that's a lie, I do at work cus I'm forced to use Windows, so WSL with tmux is an acceptable alternative)

  • I'm happy the Cygwin and Mingw days are over. WSL2 works very well.

  • My company only allows us to use the company-provided Windows image, so I do all my work inside a WSL2 tmux session.

    JetBrains IDEs and VSCode also have WSL connectors so it works acceptably well.

    It also handily dodges all the Windows security policies (like installing software). You can even run Xorg apps from it.

    I'm still forced to use MS Teams and Outlook, though..

  • Back when I switched to Linux, Nvidia worked much better than AMD cards, but everyone hates them for not providing open source drivers, understandably

  • In my experience, Nvidia drivers work just fine. They're just proprietary, and once in a while they release a faulty driver (which you can just roll back ofc). Happened to me a couple of times over the past.. 14 years, fuck

  • This is a bit of a stretch I think..

    Web development is complicated because it's indredibly poorly "designed" from the beginning, and doing a full redo is impossible.

    It is 100x easier today than it was in 2006 when I started.

  • Kidding aside, I think the popular frameworks these days are incredibly well made. Frontend web has always been hell, and if your job is producing functional web GUIs, you can't do it on a large scale without them.

  • I'm doing a small hobby project (a ladder/ranking system for playing beer sports with my community), and I tried out Tailwind.

    I gave up and loaded Bootstrap instead, but I will probably end up just writing all the CSS myself.

    Seems so silly to have 15 CSS classes on a single DOM element..

  • If you spend a lot of time on a single framework, you will transcend and become a sort of frontend diety, growing multiple extra limbs allowing you to type in CSS classes faster than any mere mortal

  • That's what I wrote?

  • The first mistake is not keeping your 10 year old installation updated

  • This is the only one here that doesn't make me cringe

  • Strange, my first thought was "except 2 and 5 all are valid"

  • Source?

  • Yup! Boot time is the worst. My Windows 10 (dual boot) takes at least 5x longer to reach desktop, and then it's still initializing all kinds of bs. Like networking takes at least 10-15s to work after I reach the desktop.

    The installation is very clean as I only use it for two video games. They're on the same NVMe SSD.

  • This excuse is so dumb for many reasons. Provide me the source and I will make my own package if needed.

    The same excuse is used to make terribly performing video games.. Just buy a better graphics card if you want to run <any modern game> at over 60fps!

  • What about EndeavourOS?

    What about Arch?
