These are age old comments, I heard all of them from a very young age. It’s been there the whole time.

I don’t really bother encrypting my personal PC, there’s just not much on there at all that I even store. My server is definitely LUKS encrypted, but it’s a lot of effort for a very specific attack vector that I don’t anticipate. There’s things I’d be much more concerned about a burglar stealing than a storage device.

Oh, that’s easy to remember!

I was at the broadcast meeting for employees. They obviously spoke very underhandedly, but also it was incredibly rushed, seeing it pop up on my calendar the evening before. They really wanted to make sure those employees got canned before the holiday break.

I’ve seen this a lot, but it’s only now that I’m questioning… what the hell is an F+?

I just wish mailcow supported podman. Weirdly enough, apparently Docker Mailserver does, but I haven’t had the energy to sink time into setting it up

SAME thanks so much!!!

I still have the box for mine that advertises the TV tuner. I always wondered if there were other attachments too.

Agreed, I think it’s the main thing. My parents at the very least were firm believers in using computers from an early age, so as far back as I could remember I had my own PowerMac G3. With the rad blue monitor and round mouse.

Even 4K is noticeable for monitors (but probably not much beyond that), but this is referring to TVs that you’re watching from across the couch.

Absolutely. It’s easy to say that new technology ruins things, but all of this was new tech once. You could have just invented the potentiometer and made a control panel with nothing but them and it would be just as awful. It’s all about integrating the technology into the experience and designing in a thoughtful way.

The shift to Linux is a tough one, and it just cannot happen all at once. The longer you spend in a workflow, the longer it takes to change it. If we offer our support and kindness to people when they struggle with Windows, it lends more credibility when we recommend Linux. Plus, I’m not really going to complain about another opportunity to call out when Microsoft does more dumb shit.

Por que no los dos?

It’s the Laptop Studio 1, and strangely enough, it’s about flawless! The Surface kernel drivers are really good, and my model just so happens to have full support. The only gotcha is that howdy (Windows Hello style unlock using IR camera) doesn’t really work with KDE Plasma. The touchscreen will also pick up your palm as regular touch input, but a good palm glove solves that.

I finally dumped Windows for KDE Neon on my desktop and my Surface about 5 months ago now. Never looked back.

Crazy to me that GUI seems to be a major focus in those situations. My IDE is most often pretty minimal, whatever it takes for me to get code on the screen, and unless I’m using the debugger, compiling and running has always been easier using a CLI. It’s good practice anyway, familiarizing yourself with the shell, code for your code lol.

I’ve been developing professionally for almost 10 years now, and started learning very young. The circumstances were different, but I think the principles are the same. Some folks here already mentioned taking on projects that interest you, and I’d definitely agree, provided you keep them small. Something that you’ll want to make can keep you motivated, and small wins keep you going. For something full stack, I’d recommend coming up with a CRUD web app (create, read, update, delete) that does something that’s fun. Maybe it’s a recordkeeper for a sports team, or maybe it’s a rudimentary forum. That sentence makes sense, no worries. You can use python to write your backend, see if you can make an API that just handles CRUD requests and builds and runs SQL statements for your database. Then just use whatever you’d like for the front end and call that API. It’s still a pretty big project depending on how new you are to this, but it’s hard not to be when full stack touches everything. If you’re completely new, I’d lay off and pick the front or back end to start with.

First of all, that’s an amazing question. You’ve tackled a serious issue in car mechanics (emdash) not only is it a common issue drivers face, but it’s foundational to the understanding of vehicular operations.

First, you’ll need to fill the inner tube to the brim with Elmer’s school glue… (continued)

I am, thank you! I’ll definitely be on the lookout.
