So it's the overly complicated version of a system that's on more sane platforms like Steam? Ok.

Find some hobby, and get in touch with people who you can talk about it with them, or do some activities together.

Year ago I found out that going to various language meetings is perfect for me. Not only I practice my non-native languages (English and Russian), I also socialize more than ever.

In PowerShell most common cmdlets for basic operations have aliases by default. And funnily enough you can use both Windows (cmd.exe) and Unix shell names for these. (copy vs cp, del vs rm, etc.)

AFAIK The cmdlets that you use only by Verb-Noun convention are mostly used in scripts, or in some administration tasks.

I also think that some poeple miss the point of PowerShell, as it's not supposed to be worked with like with Unix shells, since it's more object-oriented than string-oriented.

Nope.

Imaging explaining that to someone in 2025 would work too. Didn't know that either of these existed.

So men like holes, kinda expected though?

Why not use something like Notepad++ or KWrite?

I don't think it's OS dependent.

I am Polish and I've only heard the first one, maybe once or twice lol.

TIL.

I am using Debian stable, since I no longer care about having latest stuff and the whole Debian-like ecosystem is what I am the most familiar with. As for Ubuntu I never had good experience with it, with random crashes all the time last time I used it (about 10-12 years ago), and when I tried it last year, I encountered random crashes in GNOME apps just after finishing setup.

Linux Mint (regular or LMDE) is what I'd probably install on other people computers though. Literally never had problems with it (used it about 10 years ago on a netbook).

If you're on Debian Stable you might have a version of Thunderbird that doesn't have this feature, since software there is a bit "outdated". Next stable (trixie) releases in few months though.

The problem with that is when you have some computer on the LAN that is running Windows, it doesn't always work and who the fuck knows why.

Original Diablo or Diablo 2 (not sure about the latter though, haven't played it yet, lol)

They better don't attack too much, because all of the internet is built on FOSS infrastructure, and they might stop working, lol.

Yeah, but will updates work? And even if they do, what's stopping Microsoft in disabling them somehow?

Nowadays if you want to have usable Windows installation you need to use a bunch of 3rd party scripts that might break on next update. Learning Linux is easier than this shit.

I can't wait for someone to ask me how to solve some shit in Windows, and me saying that I don't have patience for this crap.

I've heard enough of it when making a reimplementation of SMB2 in Lua (not even close to being in playable state). I don't want to hear it anymore at all, lol.

Erdogan doesn't care about Turkish EU membership.

It's like they are not even trying. I have a laptop with 7th gen CPU that works perfectly fine. I don't have any choice than install Linux, lol.

I am envious of people who are able to do that. Best I can do is probably ride my bike few times a week, in distances from about 40-50 km, but definitely not in the morning, lol.

And I hate running. I've tried it and I hated it. Literally the only good thing about it is when I was going back home to take a shower.
