yeah a fresh windows 11 install has like 20 different control panels, all built at different times by different teams using different UI toolkits. It’s basically their philosophy to not unify anything but instead just keep bolting new things to different pieces of the OS, no matter how similar

yeah many linux systems will run fsck on mount as well if that same thing is detected, it’s not a windows specific thing

Well yeah, it’s built to run proton which is wine to emulate windows games. I’m talking about using it as a Linux machine outside of purely steam / windows games. Try to install megasync, for example

no, then he would have said snapcraft

Yeah SteamOS is celebrated for its contributions to gaming, but good luck running something that’s not in flathub

What about the 4th option

But also super far into cogdev because the largest investors in those efforts by far are the established tech giants that have been around for years, so they are directly supporting the biggest players getting bigger

That’s a closure

Sure thing, thanks for sharing!

Here’s the original that gives credit to funny joke maker and doesn’t burn your eyes with the reddit gas

One of the best insults I’ve heard I saw here on lemmy which was “you look like the halfway point on an Animorphs cover”

True, I’m lucky to work for a company that was half founded by engineers who know the cost of compounding technical debt, which is almost never the case.

Sure, though having gone through an entire monorepo refactoring of like half a million lines to basically destroy the codebase and switch from vue 2 to vue 3 among other things, it’s also possible to build the new, better designed wall right behind the old one, test like hell against that wall, and then shift that wall in when it’s ready in a planned release, ready for the issues that come because that wall isn’t quite like the old wall

haha I’ve watched TPB pretty religiously but I’ve never seen this, it’s excellent

You got the bubbles plastic

Depends on how you use your computer. Plenty of people would tell you that using a GUI file manager and cutting/moving files is inefficient on any platform as opposed to just using a terminal.

There are times where it’s nice to drag a file or group of files and have Finder show me the content of the destination folder before I decide to drop the files. But sure I could do that with 3 mouse clicks and 4 keyboard taps.

I think that terminal only or primarily terminal is valuable, a combination of mouse and keyboard with shortcuts is valuable, and also the ability to just use your mouse (especially helpful for accessibility) is also valuable, and they all should be supported.
