I had to learn cli and server linuxes as part of uni but i haven’t used them for my fedora other than nvidia drivers and things windows users need to install putty and winscp for. It’s nice.

Notepad++ is good but a bit bloated. Would not call it rubbish. Node is solid.

Interesting, thanks. I just assumed monitors themselves handle that same way as monochrome monitors manage to display the same content as shitty gaming monitors and art monitors with huger rgb coverage.

Its shity corpo behavior to force users generate more profits for shareholders. It is no benefit to anyone but ms.

What is hdr and why do people care about it? Seems like another doly atmos that is just made to sell expensive hardware and invent a solution looking for a problem.

You could’ve just had your mom install linux and you wouldn’t have to remote in since theres nothing to do. Everything just works.

Its not a big deal the same way cancelling adobe subscription is not a big deal.

Are people shocked that windows keeps removing things that allow the os to be usable and debloated?

Copilot recording your screen will be a non optional feature before win11 is over.

As a dev while steams cut is large and id like to see it go down, you do get a lot for it.

Got it not even you can think of anything to defend clis inferiority.

Russia just wants musks boy toys to cripple the only checks and balances putin thinks he has.

Why would i install random software some rando on some random site tells me to to do a function my preinstalled gui(and terminal) can out of the box?

Sure terminal can be better in a few cases but the fact you are typing this from a guy browser on a gui os speaks for itself.

Your guide did literally nothing other than return errors. Seems like even you don’t know how to do this. And you follow wrong instructions that don’t work up with asking for coordinates of buttons for gui, this is scraping the bottom of the barrel. As in you’ve gone through the barrel, through the bottom, dug through the entire earth and are scraping the bottom of another barrel from under it.

I like the terminal on linux a lot, but with arguments like these you need to touch grass at least once a year my friend.

Okay then how do I mount my drive through terminal and set it to automount every time and change it’s name to appear as “disk 3” everywhere?

Realizing how often I need to unfuck windows bullshit with regedit, commandline, installing more programs like putty for more command lines and 20 poorly made control panels drove me to linux finally cause I thought I might as well do everything consistently from one place: terminal.

Now I realize I haven’t had to use terminal for anything except tunneling to schools remote server to run a webpage as part of my studies, run npm or to start a local database, things no normal user would ever do. Things I will never do again once I finish my school.

thing with gui is you don’t need to memorize button locations and menus. If you do it’s poor layout. Good gui lets you find things you didn’t know you were looking for intuitively, without external resources or manual. CLI requires you to know what exactly you are doing and is impossible to use without external resources. Nothing against terminal but unless you know what you are doing and every command required to complete that action, it’s ass. If gui was so bad and cli was so good, guis would not be used by anyone.

I mean you dont go around copy pasting device ids and running commands for 20 minutes to connect your device through terminal when it is done with 2 clicks in the gui even by someone who has never used a pc before.

Yes it is bad ux/ui but its better than windows regedit or its 20 control panels that don’t do the thing you want, or windows terminal that you use constantly and don’t notice.

T. I did not understand how anyone would like terminal for software and now i swear by my drop down console. But i agree, the few areas of terminal people mostly use should be covered by a gui, eg gnome having “open terminal in folder location” and gnome having ability to add repos to software center like kde.

Thanks ill look into it!

I use chat gpt to find issues in my code when I am at my wits end. It is super smart, manages to find the typo I made in seconds.
