Programmers excited to get home and get back to their linux boxes

[–] SpaceNoodle 15 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No, just a different Linux box

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Must be nice. Most places I know use MacOS if developers demand the ability to use unix boxes, otherwise, it's just WSL

Embedded development demands Linux.

HPC is also usually linux machines, and if not your yours, the machine you’re remoting into is definitely linux.

WSL is actually pretty OK now, it's lightyears ahead of what it was. You can even run systemd in it now.

And finally take the wig off.

No way! My wig stays on at home. Wife has no idea I've been bald for 15 years now

I want to put this up in my cube

For me, working from home, it's: Tired of looking at bad program, can't wait to close it and look at good program. Although I think a lot of people working in-office feel that one too, lmao.

Right now, bad screen. But in like 45 min I’ll put that away, walk from my home office to my living room and sit at the good screen

[–] TragicNotCute 5 points 2 years ago

I bet you’re deep into that good screen time right now. You get after it bud.

When you work for yourself on your home PC what do you call it, a Good-Bad screen or an OK Screen?

[–] SpaceNoodle 10 points 2 years ago

A security threat

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Exactly what I was wondering. I think personally I subconsciously stopped using the "bad screen" for good screen stuff and replaced that with the Xbox downstairs. Also nicer to be spending the time around the family, rather than up in my grotto.

Yeah I've ended up using a PlayStation for gaming with my partner but I much prefer using the PC when I can, not sure if it's because I can finally play slightly higher end games than I used to or that I prefer the controls.

Thought this was about something else before I expanded the thumbnail, and was about to give my... opinions on display technologies (tl:dr LCD Bad, Plasma Okay, CRT Good, OLED Needs More Time In The Oven)
