    Try seeing if you can switch to Linux. I didn’t expect to succeed while working at Microsoft, but I haven’t had to use Windows in over a year now.

        Yep. I presume the people in the Windows org have to use Windows, But I work in the Azure org, where people are pretty gung ho about Linux.

      Not sure when they added it, but you can get dark mode on it. The path for me: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 19\Common7\IDE the file you need to modify is ssms.pkgundef and the line has a comment above it that says //Remove Dark Theme

      Just comment the line. Boom

      Edit: I have a very new edition of ssms (some version of 19) so YMMV

    I just got a BSOD the other day. Haven’t seen one of those things in a while.

    It gave me a link which told me to just search for how to fix a BSOD on some windows computer help tool (wait, what I have a BSOD) which then sent me to another link…cool.

    That’s why I use whatever I want and remote into my work machine to do the things I can’t get away with on my personal one.

    Literally me right now

    Sad thing is, i can’t ask IT for Linux, because i AM the IT but my other colleges don’t want to use Linux…

    Counterpoint: at least it’s not Windows 11. I don’t care if it’s prettier if it’s less functional and more buggy. Plus, I hear it steals design cues and features from KDE, although it seems that stealing commonplace features from Linux Desktop Environments is think that’s been ongoing, if I remember correctly.

    Recently switch to Mac for work and couldn’t be happier. Well, unless Linux becomes an option 🥸

    Just run windows in a VM on Linux or the other way around so you can still use Linux features. Or WSL if you like selling your soul to Microsoft

    I have a bunch of consoles that I use at work. Most of them use windows. There are two tho that use gnu/Linux. They’re used exclusively to run Matlab 🤦
