Oh yeah absolutely i’d rather be next to a smoker than a vaper. But because smokers go to smoking areas that I obviously have no need to go to, I encounter inconsiderate vapers way more than I do smokers nowadays.

Only time smokers become a problem for me now is briefly walking past them or at outdoor festivals.

This is why i hate vapers way more than i hate smokers. At the very least smokers go elsewhere when they smoke.

(If you’re vaping to quit though you have my respect)

It was my go to for computers that i didn’t need windows on at the time.

Now i have bazzite on my gaming pc and currently experimenting with arch hyprland on my surface go 2 that could no longer get windows updates.

How safe is it compared to limewire? Like how do they ensure everything is what they say it is and not something malicious is misleading?

And surprise surprise, it’s worse than ever

I’m actually

Chat > Video Call > Face to Face > Audio Call

I hate conversing voice alone unable to read any queues on how they’re taking in what I’ve been saying.

Same, my gaming htpc got switched over to bazzite deck this year

By saying he’s not a tech guy probably just means he’s not a programmer. But with how he’s done everything he definitely has the chops to be one.

He seems to be a guy that really likes to tinker with things. And those are the kind of people that Linux, especially arch, really latches onto.

Because Amazon just have a shit algorithm. They don’t distinguish single purchase items but their algorithm is skewed to try and get you to come back to get the things you got in the past.

If you’re already taking about a product you’ve likely already been swayed by targeted marketing (not just online but physical/traditional too). And you only become more aware after you’ve seen an ad with it still on your mind. And this is the moment where some people say that their phone must’ve been listening to them earlier on, because they can’t seem to comprehend cohorts and marketing in general.

Trump and his cult are terrorists though

I don’t think it’s too bad. I can imagine those with some slight visual impairments it might’ve been awkward to see the buttons some times without a background for them

Does it have proper .sln support with a solution explorer?

I’m not being forced to use visual studio. But because of dev ops licenses we get visual studio licenses alongside it so because of that the company isn’t willing (and rightly so in my opinion) to foot the expensive (for a small company) bill for rider.

Which is why I’ve landed on vs code.

Then I’m reliant on my current workplace rather than figuring out a consistent way to code at work, outside of work and at any other future workplace.

Don’t want to have to get used to one kind of workflow to then not being able to use it in another setting.

I used vscodium for a bit but their latest C# Dev kit is locked to VS Code proper :(

I even made a cool bash script that would download and install ms vs store extensions and all of their dependencies before hitting this roadblock (to get the ones not available on open vsx).

Thanks for the password manager suggestions, I’ll look into them when I get a chance.

I’ve been looking into firefox forks too.

I would like to keep contactless via my phone as I don’t ever really carry my wallet with me anymore these days so maybe Google pay will have to stay. Bit annoying that it won’t be able to be used on whatever browser I end up going with though :(

This is for my job…

Yeah Skype was already dead by then and when normies wanted to start using video calls on the reg, they ended up with zoom either because their work were already using it elsewhere or from being recommended by others that had that as their reason.
