  • I sincerely hope you're trolling.

    I teach computer science and windows has been the biggest source of problems I've had in the last five years: I've seen defender delete their programs when compiling them, I've seen it delete gcc because it thought it was malware, I've seen it do forced updates in the middle of a test, I've seen updates break tools like compilers and servers that needed to be reinstalled on a daily basis, I've seen onedrive make some of their files inaccessible, I've seen updates break their wifi, I've seen it take upwards of 10 minutes to log into our AD domain, the list of problems goes on.

    These days windows is a piece of shit, especially if you're a developer. I'm basically forced to have them either install linux or do all their development in wsl, and it fucking sucks.

  • The Eaton unit is a UPS that's connected to the whole setup. It works really well, I can recommend it.

  • The home server under my desk. Very professional, as you can see.

  • Oh, finally I can get rid of pamac

  • Because in web development it is perfectly normal to use 2 frameworks and 1200 random libraries to do the simplest of things. One compromised library will compromise all applications that rely on it directly or indirectly, no matter how small.

    I absolutely hate this aspect of web development and frankly I'm scared every time I type npm install

  • Baldur's Gate 3. I tried it when it was in early access and thought it was too clunky. Tried it again a few months ago, absolutely love it.

  • For me it's Mario 64.

    I'm old enough to have tried it when it was new and my opinion back then was that the controls made it nearly unplayable. I tried it again a couple years ago and I still agree with my kid self.

  • I will not install your shitty app

  • I have the previous gen T14, and I had to replace the entire motherboard because the Wi-Fi chip is soldered. It's still soldered on this one I see.

  • What's with the goonerbait?

  • I absolutely love Kate, I've been using it since 2019 when I switched to Linux and I needed a replacement for Notepad++, and I prefer it to more sophisticated editors like VS Code.

  • What can I say, I'm a sucker for punishment 😂

    I like having the latest (or at least recent) hardware so having the latest kernel and mesa is a must.

  • Things have gotten A LOT better since I started using it, but here's a list of things I hate after using Arch with KDE as my main OS for almost 7 years:

    • Not having an archive manager as good as 7-zip was on Windows. Ark is a good replacement but it supports less formats, has less options when compressing, and most importantly if you close the archive while extracting it silently fails (reported in 2019, still not fixed)
    • You can't make an account without a password (yes, I know I can configure the sudoers file and polkit to skip password prompts, but that's not user friendly). For the average user, having to type the password after login is incredibly annoying, I would like to have something like the UAC prompt in Windows
    • Wayland: it was made mainstream waaaay too early, causing a lot of issues with both Qt and GTK applications, some of which persist to this day, especially with fractional scaling and HDR
    • Developers seem to think that I enjoy using the terminal: I don't, I hate it. Why isn't there a GUI for pacman supports the AUR and doesn't suck?
    • Random broken commits being pushed to stable. I'm talking about "how the f did you not notice this?" kind of bugs, like how I had to rename files twice in Dolphin before it would actually rename them. It was fixed quickly but how did this get into stable in the first place?
    • Flatpak having its old ass version of mesa in the runtime, causing all sorts of issues if you have a newly released GPU. I stopped using it because of this
  • I have some similar reviews with 0 hours because I usually play a cracked version of the game and then buy it if i like it just to support the dev. Maybe that's what was going on here.

  • I donate 100€ to KDE every year. I consider it my "windows license", since it was the DE that allowed me to escape from windows 7 years ago.

  • I burn exactly one DVD every year.

    The school where I teach wants us to deposit all tests done in digital format (I teach programming) at the end of the year on a DVD-RW.

    I keep an old USB DVD drive around specifically for this, but I also have some old PCs that I could use. I use k3b to make these discs.

  • My first thought was "Oh wow, I actually bought a lot of stuff back in the day, most of which has been removed", but then I realized that I haven't bought anything from google play in well over 10 years. Time flies...

  • If I had to guess, the second curve allows the GPU to boost higher than the first one, so it generates more heat.
