but granted that's recently

2018-09-11 01:07:00 UTC  

I use Debian, Arch or CentOS for everything but a locked down Windows 10 LTSB for gaming alone.

2018-09-11 01:07:02 UTC  

Yeah

2018-09-11 01:07:36 UTC  

I used to be obsessed with OS tweaking and all that but now that I've worked in corporate america for 4+ years... it's all fucking Windows.

2018-09-11 01:07:42 UTC  

I switched to full time Linux about 3 years ago. I am a " no tux no bux " gamer

2018-09-11 01:08:07 UTC  

I vCenter console into machines for initial setup but then just ssh in from my windows machine lol

2018-09-11 01:08:25 UTC  

I wish I was as strong as you.

2018-09-11 01:08:35 UTC  

However, doesn't Civ 6 work well on Linux

2018-09-11 01:08:38 UTC  

What is your setup?

2018-09-11 01:08:45 UTC  

Flavor/DE/etc

2018-09-11 01:09:02 UTC  

I've got a 2011 board with a 1080 GTX

2018-09-11 01:09:16 UTC  

Ubuntu

2018-09-11 01:10:17 UTC  

Oh wow you have a 1080

2018-09-11 01:10:21 UTC  

What do you use that for?

2018-09-11 01:10:26 UTC  

I have a 1060 and feel it is overkill 😄

2018-09-11 01:10:56 UTC  

I run with two 1900 X 1200 monitors

2018-09-11 01:11:17 UTC  

so it's a lot of pixels to push around even if only gaming one.

2018-09-11 01:12:37 UTC  

True but that is still A LOT of gpu.

2018-09-11 01:12:42 UTC  

Do you work in tech?

2018-09-11 01:12:59 UTC  

not exactly

2018-09-11 01:13:04 UTC  

building automation

2018-09-11 01:13:11 UTC  

this is my home compy

2018-09-11 01:13:16 UTC  

for personal use only

2018-09-11 01:13:26 UTC  

I work out of a lap top

2018-09-11 01:13:32 UTC  

Industrial automation? in what industry?

2018-09-11 01:13:40 UTC  

HVAC

2018-09-11 01:13:45 UTC  

Oh sick!

2018-09-11 01:13:52 UTC  

That's awesome.

2018-09-11 01:14:03 UTC  

All embedded stuff, so no reason you're a linux fan 😄

2018-09-11 01:14:23 UTC  

I quit my job over a year ago. It was a year in May. I'll probably have to start looking soon.

2018-09-11 01:14:42 UTC  

I just don't like proprietary bullshit

2018-09-11 01:14:59 UTC  

Most of the problems that I dealt with at work were proprietary bullshit

2018-09-11 01:15:16 UTC  

Yeah, it's annoying but sadly most embedded systems are proprietary.

2018-09-11 01:15:23 UTC  

It's the nature of the beast.

2018-09-11 01:15:30 UTC  

I'd spend half of my day on licsensing or related crap.

2018-09-11 01:15:50 UTC  

People don't collaborate as much with embedded - it's harder than say web apps

2018-09-11 01:15:51 UTC  

a lot had to do with Windows

2018-09-11 01:16:19 UTC  

Oh yeah, that's annoying. I worked in automotive IT so dealt with FANUC robotics and others... they're terrible with drivers and the like with Windows.

2018-09-11 01:16:23 UTC  

Extremely fickle.

2018-09-11 01:17:15 UTC  

It got so bad with Windows changing host IDs with Win 10 that our main brand released a Linux client.

2018-09-11 01:17:34 UTC  

Well at least that is amazing.
