getting more hit than miss with every year
There is also more out there.
It's nice that there are more collaborative projects and that it's easier to check in some code.
But more programmers and less quality control also means less quality sometimes.
open source has a lack of a promise behind it.
Its like a box of poo, you never know what you're gonna get.
I dunno about that. Generally a lot of things I used got really stable about 2011-2012. The Microsoft went open source with the tooling I used and it has been a mess since.
vscode is awesome software, and technically not open source but mostly it is
i use WSL, zsh shell on my install. it's really nice
95% of the places that I freelance for are 1) Microsoft shops 2) PHP
How well does WSL work?
vscode is a bit *too* a-la-cart
near perfect
I even have xfce desktop on one of my monitors with WSL, crazy
@Undead Mockingbird The only things I've had not work are crypto currency things and Microsoft SQL Server for Linux
If you run Xming you can pretty much install a full XFCE desktop
Interesting.
There had been some kind of POSIX compatibility before then.
I never bothered with it too much.
When I wanted Linux, I didn't want some imitation.
Windows is POSIX 1.0 compliant since forever. POSIX 2.0 compliance you need the Unix tools pack in the XP days.
TBH I don't use the X forwarding that much
crowder doing michael jackson
funny
i would not use linux at work, if i had a choice
I will check it out though
I wrote a tiny script to do all the steps conveniently for x/desktop stuff https://hastebin.com/uzazedixaj.py in case some of you are looking
What steps?
like exporting, killing any processes left overfor a clean start. admin shit, that's it
god i wish
👌
nibba
I wish that was real
oh i see
i just read the script
LOL
I am a bit of a magaped
