The Man with the REDACTED_INFORMATION

  • What is the worst IT setup you have seen at a company?

    Jump

  • TLDR - Boomer problems

  • What is your favorite movie? Or, what is your favorite genre of film?

    Jump

  • My favourite film has gotta be 1986 "Aliens"

    Some tension, some horror, some action.

    And Ripley was both pretty and a good asskicker of xenos.

  • OpenSUSE is the best

    Jump

  • That person should take a break, I'm just jostling you know, bit of tomfoolery and joking around.

    It's almost like some people like that user should eat some snickers and read a book on bunny rabbits or something

  • [Serious] What's your hot take?

    Jump

  • What do you mean, like insults or if someone really insults you with a phobic term?

    Unless you annoy or anger the person first, then sure I'd get it if they were big an asshole. But if it's a retort, then maybe don't start insult wars you can't win.

  • Tea versus Coffee

    Jump

  • Straight to the point, I like it! Programming sucks out your soul!

  • Linux in the military

    Jump

  • I ask because using the funni penguin kernel in a weapons grade equipment is funny

  • Open-Source Video Editor 'OpenShot' Gets 'Game-Changer' Update

    Jump

  • ShotCut Enjoyer vs Average OpenShot Goblin

    But yeah seriously I found it to be the better and more intuitive tool to use.

  • Linux geeks cheer as Arm wrestles x86 • The Register

    Jump

  • Does this possibly mean the end of x86 or will it be a coexisting scenario?

    I still believe that as much as some people bark on about, X86 will not die for a long time, it will still keep kicking for some time.

  • What industry secret are you aware of that most people aren't?

    Jump

  • If I'm not mistaken Nestlé, the firm that makes various brands of chocolate, are known or at least have been known to include slavery in really poor parts of the world.

    When I look at a bottle or a cuddly packaged bit of chocolate, I shudder to think the shit conditions that a person, a child even was forced or on crap pay to produce that from the cocoa farming..

  • What is your favourite shell to use

    Jump

  • Because pepperoni rocks

  • My friend didn't have a great experience with Linux

    Jump

  • The problem is mate is that not all games have native Linux versions, If FIFA 17 were on steam, you could use proton on it but I believe it isn't.

    It just comes with the territory of Linux that some games are windows only and can be finicky.

    Minecraft however, should run fine on potato machines and with Linux, should have a native port you can install from say Flatpak.

    When moving to the penguin train, he needs to write down what software and games he wants to use, and what might be omitted due to compatibility issues.

    If the man wants to use Windows, let him be, he might reconsider in future about trying Mint again or another distro like Kubuntu.

  • What skill or talent took you longer than it should have to learn?

    Jump

  • Tying a tie for meetings, interviews etc.

    I've always had issues trying to do myself from "my angle" if you know what I mean, I've always worn light blue or grayish dress shirts without the tie to interviews, or I'd just leave the tie spaced out so I can shrink it again when I got around my neck.

    Still trying to get the hang of it!

  • Which one do you prefer? htop, btop or top?

    Jump

  • I am a chad htop enjoyer, I find btop and other alternatives too much on the eyes for me personally and HTOP has enough info for me to take a look at in terms of system resources.

    Either that or I just use the regular gnome GUI system monitor lol

  • What are your thoughts on Flatpak/Flathub?

    Jump

  • I prefer Flatpaks because it's a nice easy way of getting software without the chance of broken or missing dependencies for a program.

    Much better than Snaps, snaps is flatpaks but MUCH worse and slower.

  • What operating system do you use on your main computer?

    Jump

  • Linux Mint Cinnamon, it just works without any extra faffing about. Been using it for my course for nearly 2 years without any problems!
