Yeah, wtf, what did Linux ever do to the great furry community sys admins?

Our group is still fully on Windows all the things (except like two virtual servers), desktops all run W10.

I will again plead in this years strategy to not upgrade to W11, if for nothing else ‘moral reasons’.
I’ll be the only one tho.

Yeah, this explanation makes the most sense to me.

Just a generalisation that “good at computers” is a programmer. So no Apple programmers :P (joking ofc)

Yes, a power tinkerer!

And if something needs to be programmed (or just coded, bcs copypasta), then that’s what’s gonna happen.

If IT won’t accommodate my ticket in the way I want Im just gonna write another ticket for access rights.

I was not explaining my logic nor my beliefs, just describing my smol sample (introvert!), as a btw fun fact.

But I was under the impression that there is no distinguishable difference between which OSs use programmes vs non-programmers (and the other way around).
Perhaps bcs I fail to se any specific connection between the two. But yes, my logic would be that both types use and are used by both to roughly the same extent.

(Haha, exactly same experience with relatives - forced them on Linux, never had anything non-trivial to fix since then.)

Wait … is there a perception (or reality?) that most Linux users are programmers?

I’m an introvert, but all programmers I know use Windows (and badly in the sense they aren’t power users).

“Arch-based by-the-path”

Its amazing how fast it’s developing, hard to believe it’s only two years old, yet it seems like yesterday at the same time.

Fantastic devs!

Correct, the next logical step.
It is needed!!

Does it, at that specific point, become even crazier?

Ngl, generally I find (non-violent) escalation entertaining.

Ohhh, so that keyboard has a yoke too (for mouse movement)?

Amazing!

Only if you also add one of these:

Needs a gauge of sorts & to be mounted overhead.

But wearing chainmail gloves disqualifies them!

Always satanise your inputs.

I love Buster, make sure to tell him, such a distinguished and professional supervisor.

Yes, Proxmox, on basically any device, expand as heart desires from there (assuming some areas/services are more within your interest or liking - an ez way to speed up the knowledge assimilation).

I love how when I stream music to my car a little VLC icon appears on the screen, under the album art. So proud.

Yeah, I know, and the new streaming formats technically supporting ads … What can I say - the world is a fuck & we must manage (or not manage, I’m not your boss, Im barely my boss).

As long as Hanna Montana Linux is installed directly on bare metal, all is good!

VLC is one of the greatest achievements of the modern era imho (along with Linux, Wikipedia, etc).

A good dev who didn’t sell out, fully FOSS, always up-to-date before-the-date, no nonsense or bloatware, no UI changes every month to get more engagement, etc.

This is how all products of humanity with our level of tech should be like (even non-software).
