It’s feels before reals, but applied to coding.

I can almost guarantee that reading this will be the best part of my work day.

This is too real for me this early in the morning

If this is true, then I will never renew any licenses for Jetbrains tools for my team ever again. They can get fucked.

It’s no coincidence that every friend I knew that worked for Amazon as a dev or related job has left. This started a few years ago and has clearly gotten worse.

So, basically always then? Yeah, me too :)

Nano’s a knockoff, use pico.

I was an early Plex user and I ditched it completely when they first started the cloud account bullshit. There weren’t as many good options at the time, but I just switched to a very simple dlna media server that my TVs supported. Now of course we have a wealth of options and Plex makes even less sense to me, but I can see lots of people will keep using it due to inertia.

Yeah, DBeaver used to be unusable, but it is quite decent these days. I was really unhappy with Datagrip, so I decided to give it another try and I am glad I did.

As far as this tool goes, I don’t love the idea of having my tools in the browser, so this won’t work for me, but it is a cool project nonetheless.

Unsurprising, but still shitty. Par for the course for the company these days.

This is true, and is why I annoyingly have to keep robots.txt on my unpublished domains. Google does honor them for the most part, for now.

I’m on a Debian based distro, but it is super simple. To hold a driver, or any package to a version just use “sudo aptitude hold <name or package here>” to undo this at any point just use “sudo aptitude unhold <name or package here>”. If you use the GUI package manager, there is a “Lock Version” option in a menu that does it.

If you’re on a Redhat based distro, Federa et al, I believe the keyword is “versionlock” for yum or dnf, but I would definitely recommend looking at a reference for the command before blinding following me on that one.

I’m not quite sure why you’re being downvoted for this. I don’t use VS Code at all, but they have done a good job of getting VS Code to be extremely used and have made the predictable steps to prevent the open source versions from being equivalent/compatible, mostly by restricting the extensions.

I just looked in detail through their privacy policy, and it looks like if you use their “service” they are collecting quite a bit of data, certainly more than I would have expected. I only use stand alone, non-federated homeservers and I have everything disabled as far as telemetry, etc, but I think you’ve convinced me to keep an eye on the other clients. I last test drove several last year and all of them were either lacking features I needed or had issues.

My initial partial read of the headline had me thinking the same way, but this is their own garbage and they can change it all they like I suppose.

Are you specifically referring to the mobile client of Element? i wasn’t away of anything with the desktop client that has anything to do with location.

I’m responding to you, but this is more for others to see since you moved to AMD.

I used Nvidia cards for many years on Linux and only recently switched back to AMD. The main issues I ran into with Nvidia were related to driver updates breaking things rather than things not working in general. So, I eventually found that holding Nvidia drivers to versions that worked without issues was the best bet and only updating them on occasion after they had been out for a bit and the consensus was that they weren’t breaking stuff.

Perfect! Though we shouldn’t give Netflix and co any ideas on more classics to dredge up and ruin.

Oh, I remember ed! He’s the talking horse from that old black and white show, right?

Yes
