Linux@programming.dev•Windows 12 could be the tipping point that finally pushes you to Linux - here's why
3 monthsWindows 3.1 (or word 2, really) for me. One of the very few things I got right.
Oh, the Master Control Program?

Maybe it’s edit I’m remembering. It was a long time ago, and I stopped using windows seriously around 3.11, so I never paid much attention to what was on that partition. It was only there to run steam (and a few other games).
I suppose I should have switched to a console, but it never even occurred to me at the time.

Linux@programming.dev•CachyOS Is Now the Most Popular Desktop Distro on ProtonDB
3 monthsThat’s my experience of a couple months with it as well.
Went back to my usual OpenSuSE or Fedora.

Wasn’t there a version of ed in DOS at one point? Or am I mis remembering?
That could still lurk somewhere in windows’ maze of directories somewhere…

But who’s making money? All the AI corps are losing billions, only the hardware vendors are making bank.
Makers of AI lose money and users of AI probably also lose since all they get is shit output that requires more work.
That’s not a homelab, that’s a home server.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•why hard exit editor? Nano say at bottom.
4 monthsIt’s fine if you only use your own machine. I suppose having accounts on other boxes is less common nowadays, but there’s much less guarantee to find your comfort editor there.
Also a 30 year+ linux/unix user.

4 monthsI don’t think it’s the perfect editor for anything. They’ll have to use vi sooner or later, they might as well learn the basics. Or just use kate.

4 monthsWell, yes. But I did wash my hands afterwards.

4 monthsI first ran into nano when I gave Gentoo a try. I had to edit a few config files, so I ran vi… no vi. Emacs? No Emacs. Well, shit, what am I supposed to do? So I went back a bit and read more carefully, apparently there was a thing called nano.
So I ran that. Ew. It was a clone of an old DOS editor of all things. What kind of lunatic had ported that? Anyway I managed to do my edits with it, added normal editors to the system and was on my way.
It was also the last time I used it.

Linux@programming.dev•I searched `CachyOS vs Fedora` on YouTube and all I found was AI Slop 🙄
4 monthsFedora or OpenSuSE are what I’d suggest for kde (or just generally speaking).
Not important? Sounds good to me.

When you compare the number of drivers in the linux and plan9 systems, it’s not surprising.



Don’t they just use another bisphenol variant which basically has the same toxicity problems?
