  • Yeah, well, linux is great, but people seem to rarely give the full disclaimer. So people end up disappointed, go back to windows and end up thinking you need to be hackerman to be able to use it. Or they do end up learning everything, think they’re hackerman and tell everyone in the world how linux is just sooo much better and easier because theyve been using it since 1969 or whatever.

    My view: Your grandma could comfortably work on linux. It’s when you need stuff beyond the most basic aoftware that there’s a much steeper learning curve than windows. You fuck up, your system implodes. Once you’re balls deep into computers, lets say software development, linux becomes easier and more useful again. Its that middle group of average users who have the hardest time.


  • Yeah no, generally you just copypaste the software website’s instructions. Many programs can be installed through the app store (or equivalent install commands) but a lot of aoftware you just gotta copypaste the code. Many also just provide an inataller.
    The meme about linux software being much easier to install is true in some cases, but mostly bullshit. even if its just sudo apt install vlc you generally still want to check the website to make sure its the best way, or you end ip with an out of date version.

    Updating software on linux is better pretty much automatic without annoying popups most of the time though.

    This is indeed pulled out of the ass. The origin of the word ‘yeet’ is meme from vine. It did get added to several big boy dictionaries. There is speculation that the word was used regionally in the 2000s.

    Now a bunch of people think it has some latin origin because it sounds convincing while a quick google search (or AI because, 2023) debunks the claim.

    It is a fun word though, i enjoy using it. :3




  • True, but my brain is too wired to VS2022/VSCode and i experienced slightly too much wonk whenever i try jetbrains stuff. I do think its is slightly worse in some ways but better in others. It is paid, but quite affordable. only downside is, when you inevitably move to other languages, youll have to get the jetbrains IDE for whichever language you want to use, whereas with VS, most keybinds and whatnot are transferrable to VScode. I do not enjoy VScode at all, but it is the best ide that covers all languages unfortunately. And what i’vs come to learn is that its much more productive to deal with it in exchange for the language support you get for literally everything in vscode.





  • Hmm im sorry to hear it. The main reason i love C# so much is because VS2022 is just amazing. Ive been trying other languages on different IDEs the past years but nothing feels nearly as smooth to work with as VS2022 with C#. Sad part is, for other languages, VSCode does feel the most comfortable. I want to like JetBrains IDEs but there’s a little too much jank for my liking. Even though I cant even drag out tabs on VSCode, its still the least annoying.
