I’m sure there is still hardware out there with issues, just like there is hardware that has issues with Windows. What’s your point?

Why Microsoft office? Who not just “office”? Libre Office is the same

HDR is available in KDE now, and bluetooth works since like a decade? Sorry, you don’t exist.

The point is hoping there are enough dumb people out there willing to pay for software that is freely available after you lie some to their face.

See also anything that Microsoft produces, they are a billion dollar company with that shit somehow.

Agian, I’m sure there are asshats out there, maybe even just people having a bad day, but generally people in the Foss community are helpful and super nice. Just my experience

Yeah, auto correct isn’t my friend

So you’re saying that there are some asshats out there? Those are everywhere.

The open source community, and Linux community in specific mostly is a very positive and helpful bunch. I’ve been on IRC and fora for years and yes, yes, sometimes somebody says something negative, gee wiz.

So far the most negative types out there seem to be in this post all complaining about how negative everyone is while in reality it’s not that bad

Yeah, I keep seeing this and it’s never been my experience in 20+ years of desktop Linux.

Yeah, every now and then there is the asshole and troll. Go to a supermarket and you’ll find them too, go to your job and you’ll find those too. I don’t call all supermarkets asshole conglomerates, it’s simply the world, there are asshats in the world.

I’ve talked directly to main developers of many systems like LVM, PHP, and so on who spent time to help me fix my issues. Who ever got to talk directly to an Apple dev or Microsoft dev?

It’s not just Linux, it’s like that with all open source. Yes, there are negative players everywhere, but mostly it has been a very welcoming and helpful group

Well, that is what I said. Dog isn’t as great as it used to be

Is… Is Microsoft the good guy here? Tell me it ain’t so!

This is why I jumped ship to DuckDuckGo like 4-5 years ago already, never looked back

Coincidentally, yesterday I was quickly setting up a new computer for some testing whilst talking to somebody about another so I was half distracted. I did a search for some package to install and got absolute unusable crap. I didn’t understand, tried again, tried different search parameters and it just got worse, and then I noticed that, since this was a new computer, the browser was using google.

I switched to DDG, and first page first hit was what I needed.

DDG also has been in a steady decline and apparently has been using Bing as it’s back-end now. I’d love to use a self hosted open source browser, or of not that, an open source federated search engine, akin to Lemmy, but I don’t see either coming into existence anytime soon.

Git is complicated, but then again, it’s a tool with a lot of options. Could it be nicer and less abstract in its use? Sure!

However, if you compare what goes does, and how it does, to it’s competitors, then git is quite amazing. 5-10 years ago it was all svn, the dark times. Simpler tool and an actual headache to use.

Also, move ssh to a different, higher port. Since ssh isn’t exactly for noobs, changing the port is easy enough to work with and that alone already reduces port scans and what not

Mine reads “code interviews for a php developer role”, which with the image implies that all php developers are incompetent because they use PHP.

Then read the title.

And oohh yeah, PHP sucks because everyone else says so and a blog post of 20 years ago said so too? That literally was the last argument I heard against PHP.

It’s becoming tiresome

Are you high or just not reading what you’re writing? Are you literally claiming that people will get confused when days start at 00:00 and end at 23:59, wherever they live in the world? Because literally no one in this world, except maybe you, is confused by that, because it makes intuitive sense.

Last time my Ubuntu Linux broke anything during an update is over 15 years ago. Last time a version upgrade failed was probably too over 5-10 years ago. I literally can’t remember those times

People comprehend days, they comprehend that their day starts at 00:00 and ends at 23:59. Calling to the other side of the world isn’t something most people.do on a daily basis

Ooohhh, OP is shitting on PHP, how very original!

Maybe next time, though, OP should read what OP posts before OO writes a title, as the content has nothing to do with PHP, its all sorts of languages (none of which PHP) and mostly javascript.

The content is pretty on point in general though, I’ve had the unfortunate luck of having dozens of developer candidates like that.

In my personal opinion, correct me if I’m wrong:

Systemd was created to replace the init system, then through extreme scope creep took over way more than wanted and needed, the main developer was “problematic” to say it politically correct, and in practice it has over complicated many super easy tasks to the point that I hate it. Other init systems were intuitive, systemd is all but.

Few weeks ago I setup a systemd server ssh server. Changing the port would be 5 seconds in changing a line in the sshd config, but now with the new and improved systemd I need to follow some nightmare documentation into creating systemd files in unrelated places and reload configs or something and I’m done with it
