I switched to full time Linux about 3 years ago. I am a " no tux no bux " gamer
I vCenter console into machines for initial setup but then just ssh in from my windows machine lol
I wish I was as strong as you.
However, doesn't Civ 6 work well on Linux
What is your setup?
Flavor/DE/etc
I've got a 2011 board with a 1080 GTX
Ubuntu
Oh wow you have a 1080
What do you use that for?
I have a 1060 and feel it is overkill 😄
I run with two 1900 X 1200 monitors
so it's a lot of pixels to push around even if only gaming one.
True but that is still A LOT of gpu.
Do you work in tech?
not exactly
building automation
this is my home compy
for personal use only
I work out of a lap top
HVAC
Oh sick!
That's awesome.
All embedded stuff, so no reason you're a linux fan 😄
I quit my job over a year ago. It was a year in May. I'll probably have to start looking soon.
I just don't like proprietary bullshit
Most of the problems that I dealt with at work were proprietary bullshit
Yeah, it's annoying but sadly most embedded systems are proprietary.
It's the nature of the beast.
I'd spend half of my day on licsensing or related crap.
People don't collaborate as much with embedded - it's harder than say web apps
a lot had to do with Windows
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.
Extremely fickle.
It got so bad with Windows changing host IDs with Win 10 that our main brand released a Linux client.
Well at least that is amazing.
I think behind the secenes most people realize that Window's days are number and working on beimg more platform agnostic.
Yes, even Microsoft.
LoL
They've been open sourcing all their stuff.
