I went from the sole IT person at a small/medium business for 9+ years to a new role at a big company with divisions and shit. In my previous position, depending on the day, I fell in every category, but usually chaotic good on good days. Now I’m pretty much neutral to lawful good. I’ll dabble in the neutral evil as I see fit, because PEBCAK and ID10t issues have no bounds.
It makes sense to target your colors for granular performance increases in different areas.
I switch to red when I’m gaming for the extra power.
As someone that has gone through some of the available online tutorials like freecodecamp, and has no real world experience, especially in a team setting, I think I agree with you. I wouldn’t say it’s hard, but I do feel it’s unnecessarily complicated in some areas. Some naming conventions are unintuitive, the cascading inheritance can get confusing especially with multiple hands working on something, and from my experiences, there’s minimal if any effort put into best practices, so everyone does things a little different.
This one also shits on Mac, so it’s a little different. That and the more bad speak about Windows, the better.
I have two weeks left as a sysadmin and I’m transitioning to development. My experiences in sysadmin are a big reason I got in the door with little coding experience. A lot of devs don’t have an in depth knowledge about computers outside of programming, and knowing that extra stuff can certainly raise the ceiling.
Yep. I decided to try a quick search and it sounds like it’s a common issue. Switched back to x11 and I’m stable again.
I’m on KDE Arch and switched about a week ago. I have an Nvidia card and went straight from x11 to Wayland plasma 6. It’s definitely prettier and smoother, but it’s absolutely not as stable. Idk if that’s an Nvidia things, a Wayland thing, or a plasma 6 thing, but I definitely have fairly consistent display issues after switching. I have a btrfs snapshot from right before I updated that’s at plasma 5, so I have a fallback if I want it. It’s mostly just an inconvenience right now, so I’ll probably just ride it out for a while and see if things improve.
I probably could have watched a couple of 10 min videos before jumping into the wiki just to get an idea of the process b fore getting so deep. The initial setup instructions are pretty good, it’s just those deviation points where you get to decide your path that gets confusing. I first did an old laptop and got that going after many hours. When I committed to my desktop, it went smoother, but I opted to go with btrfs and snapshots without Grub, and that took a hot minute to figure out. Now I have piece of mind from my snapshots, which is great for trying new things. So far, I’ve been very happy with my setup, and it’s been very stable. Now I need to get Wayland and plasma 6 going with my Nvidia card. I got a bit hung up on setting the kernel mode stuff, and haven’t really gone back in a while, so it’s time.
I went straight from windows to Arch. I had used Ubuntu for a couple of weeks 10+ years ago. The arch wiki is a great resource and I was able to follow it to get up and running. However, there are things that aren’t detailed enough (like literally hold your hand) on some things the wiki expects you to know. Now, maybe starting with Arch is not the best path, so that’s probably mostly on me. I think that since there are so many different ways to do things, that following some of the instructions can be difficult for a user’s specific case. Boot loaders where my biggest hangup early on since I didn’t want to use Grub. Modifying boot loaders, setting up pacman hooks, learning and configuring different file systems, and learning how the config and system files is tough, and the wiki has all of the info to do it, but it’s not always linear. I wish there were more practical code examples and/or short videos showing exactly what files to modify and how to do it right.
For sure, but unfortunately, that’s still a Wayland problem.
That still sounds like a Wayland problem, just not one that they have control of
The max size of required pants stretch will be the standard size for the right picture, since each leg already wraps half of the tree. That confirms viability at least, so now I think it’s down to comfort, and does the stretch retract in a restful position, or does stay all loose and cumbersome?
