Ive ways hated phones without the 3.5mm and won’t stop even if all phone manufacturers remove it

Not what I was saying, also do you really believe migrants don’t have culture clashes when they move to other countries?

Gay: Software Dev

TL;DR: Smart sibling ahead of the curve told me in 2011 that tech jobs will be the future and naturally I didn’t listen, fast forward to 2016 and my contract job laid me off so I started learning Python (as advised by smart sibling)

I start making all sorts of stupid stuff mostly CLI programs, beginner alg problems. beginner alg console games and so on.

Suddenly I realize I probably know enough to make something real, start slowing learning new things and always think “hmm a real software dev probably does x” and then try x.

Went from CLI stuff to web APIs, then full stack websites, then platform specific gui programs, then learning C++.

And at some point it clicked that this stuff is a lot easier than I thought (I had literally no concept of what programming was before)

I apply for an associates in tech program, just before starting I decide to use Linux to get more familiar with dev technology.

I picked Arch Linux btw, had some issues btw, overcame issues btw and then I landed a job during school as a dev and I kept using Linux as dev.

So it was mostly about getting to understand dev landscape more

I use CachyOS on my desktop (I game), and Arch Linux on laptop (by far the best laptop user experience with tiling wm)

I’d say CachyOS there is a learning curve but if you know these windows terms: registry, batch, sfc /scannow … then you already have enough technological know how to get started with rolling release.

My advice for gaming on Linux is to have a seperate hard drive where you store things you care about (including games) so you are able to wipe everything in case something goes wrong.

EE is absolutely fascinating for applications of calculus in general.

I didn’t give a shit about calculus and then EE just kept blowing my mind.

This wasn’t a thing in Canada until COVID, we’ve also have a huge wave of immigration and a lot of immigrants think it’s chill to pretend you own public space.

To me, it’s the biggest indicator you are a conceited asshole.

that’s an interesting keyboard key map

Only thing I would say is to watch your language and use of “we/you/I”, do not say “I told you”.

It comes across as combative.

I feel like that’s within the scope of what a library is meant for, community support.

I too have no media literacy

I’m on x11 so I guess I’ll have to find out tonight if it works or not

as of when ? using what method of using discord, browser or the electron app? ? under x11 or Wayland?

I know there’s dozen ways to screen share but I mostly care about discord and discord screen sharing doesn’t work on Linux, curiously enough if you get obs to create a virtual camera of whatever you want to stream it will stream it flawlessly. Use the default way of streaming anything and it craps out

I bet you were a pretty big wheel down at the ice cream factory

They probably don’t. I feel like people’s definition of what a friend is can be very loose.

I recognize some people I know as colleagues or acquaintances, but some people may think of them as friends were they in my shoes.

Yes, but CS2 is cheater riddled and deadlock announced an AC that to my knowledge we don’t know much yet.

Sc2 is also cheater riddled. Valorant has kernel AC.

Which games are those ?

my friends started saying “Linux moment” whenever I have an issue with anything so naturally insay “windows moment” every single time their game crashes or they “need to reinstall graphics drivers”

oh no! it’s [insert excuse] not windows!

It works for them because their work is high skill and always useful, general office work like mine (dev) is impossible to find a job if you were to immediately quit. It’s quite different when you’re competing against thousands of cheap IT graduates looking to flock to your country and work for pennies on the dollar.

BTW not saying I’m anti immigration, it’s just the way the tech space is right now.

Not American but I’ve heard American companies hire foreigners because they can wage slave them with Visa entrapment, no Visa and you’re deported. People that are trying to improve their life are just taken advantage of.

I haven’t heard of anything like that happening to tradespeople
