Penumbra? :)
-
It gives me at least 5 BSOD's in a row each time i turn it on...i'm dual booting to ZorinOS until this shit is fixed
-
I use masterpasswordapp. It generates a password from your name, your master password and site/service/domain you enter
-
Removing Ubuntu 18.04 from dual boot...
-
Penumbra10 theme still looks better...
-
Today I upvoted, now I'm thanking you after trying it. I hated doing tutorials without my laptop connected to the second screen.
For those using VSCode, there is an extension called GlassIt-VSC -
@C0D4 a friend of mine used his phone this way after it fell and the screen got cracked at the bottom
-
Thanks for the tip :)
-
Is there a story behind this?
-
Just spread some mayo or something like that over the screen. Nobody wants to touch that
-
@linuxxx Oh I know that you are :D But since spyware is omnipresent on all (mainstream) mobile platforms, I actually prefered w10m (still using it, sadly)
-
@linuxxx Hating something that for some reason ruins your workflow or because it goes completely against your philosophy is okay I guess... Also I don't recall any of your Windows rants being shallow or being posted just for the sake of it, so my comments don't really apply to you.
The ammount of rants bashing it for no apparent reason is astonishing. I still remember the one where someone compared design languages of Windows, Mac and Android. It was explicitly stated that Fluent is bad because Microsoft developed it. Or the numerous ones where people raged because their system updated suddenly after they've postponed it for weeks (during the WannaCry shitstorm). And so on...
And trust me, you don't hate them as much as I do for ruining their mobile platform -
@linuxxx @ddephor @7root @deadlyRants
Well I haven't heard anything new really, but obviously Linux is more stable and better maintained than i thought.
At least it makes me happier about the coming switch to it one day.
But i still think that a large number of Windows rants are created because it's popular to rant about (like Java) and users not properly maintaining the system. -
@Torbuntu all is forgiven in that case, i can understand that :D It wasn't aggressive at all, I just needed to sum up my comment :)
Well I had a similar experience in these 15 years using windows :) it happened maybe 2-3 times in all these years.
I want to switch to Linux for no particular reason, but not having the time and will to become a power user and all those 'hurr durr Linux is better than Microshit' posts are keeping me away.
I guess that my point is that if you can maintain your own Linux machine when it fucks up for some reason, you can sure as hell maintain it on Windows (family and badly supported computers excluded) -
@Torbuntu hey, i agreed with you that it just doesn't work for some people. I've even installed Ubuntu on my parents laptop.
I was talking generally about windows rants -
I have a question for active Linux users: Is it really true that Linux updates never fucked with your system?
I am not being sarcastic, it's a genuine question -
I agree with @Torbuntu, some people may have it good while others struggle from objective reasons.
But most of the hate for windows updates comes from users that fail to properly maintain their machines. Disabling and postponing updates, without updating manually will eventually cause some unpleasant moments to happen.
People can switch Linux distros monthly but can't give their machines 5-10 minutes to update? Give me a break. -
Google how to properly uninstall Ubuntu. Happened to me 2 or 3 times..
-
So Java is good?
-
@wanderpotato now that's a whole different story, that should never be the case...
-
"...often times better than master of one" :)
-
Push through that shit, endure and emerge victorious!
-
Try reading 'Clean Code'. It's interesting and enriching :)
-
Just do it!
-
I don't really see how it relates to Java...
-
I think there's a hidden message somewhere in this post...
-
Try installing Penumbra theme :)
-
It makes it special
-
Give this man a cape!
-
I believe it's already in the works :) can't remember where I read it, so I can't give you any reliable sources
