Why is there no sense of "camaderie" in the workplace?

  • I did hear that they're killing off hyper threading which is a bummer but I guess those P cores would make up for it.

  • Didn't HP sell some fancy shmancy laptops that came with Ubuntu or some flavor of it? Think it was for developers but I thought that was the closest we gotten to commercially selling Linux based machines.

    P.S. I could be wrong about this but I am sure this happened.

  • Me cat

    Jump
  • Nah, he's a pretty chill cat and from observing, is open to strangers. I live in a cul de sac area and the neighbours sometimes along the way take a bit of time petting him.

    He's one smooth cat I tell you.

  • I don't bother using things like Copilot or other AI tools like ChatGPT. I mean, they're pretty cool what they CAN give you correctly and the new demo floored me in awe.

    But, I prefer just using the image generators like DALL E and Diffusion to make funny images or a new profile picture on steam.

    But this example here? Good god I hope this doesn't become the norm..

  • The problem is mate is that not all games have native Linux versions, If FIFA 17 were on steam, you could use proton on it but I believe it isn't.

    It just comes with the territory of Linux that some games are windows only and can be finicky.

    Minecraft however, should run fine on potato machines and with Linux, should have a native port you can install from say Flatpak.

    When moving to the penguin train, he needs to write down what software and games he wants to use, and what might be omitted due to compatibility issues.

    If the man wants to use Windows, let him be, he might reconsider in future about trying Mint again or another distro like Kubuntu.

  • Tying a tie for meetings, interviews etc.

    I've always had issues trying to do myself from "my angle" if you know what I mean, I've always worn light blue or grayish dress shirts without the tie to interviews, or I'd just leave the tie spaced out so I can shrink it again when I got around my neck.

    Still trying to get the hang of it!

  • The DLC I'll admit is what they are jokingly known for but someone could "find some treasure" can avoid that. But good answer nonetheless!

  • I am a chad htop enjoyer, I find btop and other alternatives too much on the eyes for me personally and HTOP has enough info for me to take a look at in terms of system resources.

    Either that or I just use the regular gnome GUI system monitor lol

  • I prefer Flatpaks because it's a nice easy way of getting software without the chance of broken or missing dependencies for a program.

    Much better than Snaps, snaps is flatpaks but MUCH worse and slower.

  • That is fair, but personally I felt WMR is a niche feature and those with VRs can game using Steam or other vr application alternatives.

    I understand that there are people that wanna use this so I get its stupid they're pulling away a feature that you actually need.

  • It honestly feels good to be on windows 10 LTSC IOT. None of this nonsense bloat installed and you get exactly the security updates you need sparsed out.

    I dread the moment I actually have to migrate to Windows 11 but at least this version of Windows 10 I can use like, another 9 years lol.

  • The two apps I've mentioned are exclusively messenger apps. Think of Facebooks messenger but more secure with no big company servers looking at your chat and messages.

  • This is true, FB messenger is as open as it will get with seeing your messages, WhatsApp is dubious too so either Signal or Session are best e2e messenger apps imo.

  • Linux Mint Cinnamon, it just works without any extra faffing about. Been using it for my course for nearly 2 years without any problems!
