what’s your thoughts on Linux and Windows…
  • It seems kind of disingenuous to compare enterprise support contracts for Linux to personal Windows licenses. Especially while also ignoring that you do pay for Windows, it's just hidden in the cost of the device.

  • Steam users have spent $19 billion on games they’ve never played
  • It also helps that Steam sales are nowhere near as good as they used to be. I don't even remember the last time I saw a 90+% discount, but there was a time when they'd pop up regularly during the winter sale.

    But yeah, these days my standard for even considering a purchase is "will I play it right now?"

  • What was your latest improvement to your Linux setup?
  • On the other side [Wayland] is buggy af.

    I've been having the exact opposite problem since recently coming back to Linux after a long hiatus. For me, Wayland has been flawless, while anything x11 looks like somebody ran the screen through a shredder, discarded half the strips, and smooshed the rest back together.

    I don't know how to troubleshoot that. I don't even know what to type in a search engine to get relevant results.

  • What was your first operating system or Linux Distribution?
  • First OS on a computer I personally owned? Windows 98. First Linux distro was Source Mage.

    If not counting ownership, then Apple IIs at school and then slightly later my family got an Amstrad that was primarily a DOS machine, but could also boot (by switching floppies several times) to some sort of GUI.

  • [Bug] Revealed spoiler text is white on white

    Revealed spoiler text appears at first to be blank. Highlighting reveals that it's there, just the same color as the background.

    Edit: this is in 120
