That guy is great. But nothing beats his JS developer interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uo3cL4nrGOk

Android is not Linux, it only uses (modified) Linux kernel. Android experience is not transferable to any other Linux distro. While Steam Deck’s is. You’re not saying your smart bulb runs Linux just because it uses its kernel.

Well, we got Steam Deck on that front, so at least there’s something. Not a desktop, but a regular consumer device with Linux is still nice.

Not even close. Most hardware issues I had were with Windows. Additionally, that thing gets slow over time, no matter what you do. If you use it often, it’ll get to an unusable state in a year or two. And you can’t do anything about it except fresh reinstall. It spies on you so much even Google could learn from them. And nowadays it even has ads. You pay for the OS and then you still have ads, classy. And as a bonus, all the spying and ads are so unoptimised that they make your computer slower.

Anyone who uses Finder as a file manager is a masochist. That’s the worst file manager I’ve ever used. And that includes shitty Android file manager which have more ads than file managing capabilities.

Well, that sounds like issues with your specific hardware, because that’s definitely not the usual Linux experience.

Tip for next time: find some distro that has up to date kernel. Ubuntu, Mint and Debian are definitely not good if you have very recent hardware, they stay on old kernels for quite a long time. And drivers are in the kernel.

I have to disagree about Windows being easier, but that’s fairly subjective. What’s 100% objective is that it’s definitely not the reason everyone uses Windows, the reason is much simpler: it came with their machine.

Anyway, I recommend Nobara for gaming - it’s basically Fedora, but preconfigured for gaming and general normal use.

Oh yeah, Windows storage driver issues are great if you need to kill time. Nothing better than your Windows installer claiming there’s no disk. Great in combination with missing touchpad drivers. But hey, at least I found out it can indeed be installed without a working mouse and that includes installing the storage driver!

Good luck! I did the same recently. I wrote my own blog system, though. I can share it with you, but I’m not sure it’s the best for anyone else, there were some shortcuts taken given I did not intend to share it.

You can check out my blog and let me know whether you want to try it: https://chrastecky.dev/ (or federated: !programming@chrastecky.dev, !3d-printing@chrastecky.dev, !gaming@chrastecky.dev).

Stupid term for when people who don’t know how to program ask AI to generate code for them which they have no expertise to actually validate.

Edit: It took 20 minutes, but I finally found the poster child for vibe coding (time well spent):

Well, if you’re into that, I’m not one to kinkshame.

Well, at least they explained it! /s

I thought it just allowede easier debugging, sorry

Edit: This comment is a gem, too.

It doesn’t support port forwarding, it’s not the best VPN for torrenting, your downloading will be limited.

I personally use ProtonVPN which does have port forwarding.

It’s also great if you have a general knowledge of something but don’t know the details. Like today I needed to do some database introspection using queries in Snowflake, I knew exactly what I needed but not where the database schema is located etc., so I let GPT write the query instead.

Or some time ago I needed to get all instances of classes implementing a specific generic interface in .NET, the code eventually dabbled into the very specifics of the runtime, it would’ve taken me much longer to find out with documentation.

All in all, it’s my opinion that AI is great if two conditions are met:

• you know exactly what you want to do and you can specify it to very tiny details
• you have the knowledge to verify whether the result makes sense without running the code (or at least the knowledge that it can’t break your app or computer)

GIMP is nowhere close to Photoshop in usability. Don’t know about others.

2 was really boring. Though I didn’t like even True Colors. But the original and Before the Storm are some of my most favourite games altogether.

Stupid term people use for “writing” code without the knowledge of programming by using AI.

Kinda the next level of running random code from the internet without understanding what it does.

And thanks to Proton you can now do pretty much everything that you can do on Windows. Unless you do graphics design.

Can I pick the tattoos?

Sure, sure. I think it was obvious what I’m talking about, but yeah, you got me.

Well, as I said in my first comment, that no one cares today doesn’t mean no one will care tomorrow. If it’s illegal, you should take precautions.
