The question is mostly about what kind of gaming.

Most single player experiences are no longer a problem because of steam proton, but multiplayer anti cheat and other AAA DRM is sometimes a windows only thing.

Coding is just superior on linux. It’s the platform built by coders to make their own life easier for 30 years.

You should dual boot, try it out for a few games and see how the dev process translates and get your feet wet.

Setting up a VM is probably a lot more effort than just installing it.

a more boilerplate way to remove having to worry about designing the UI/UX so I could focus on [blank]

Yes.

In a way, it is super funny ironic / funny to me that we have basically no actual GUI standard. There is Qt, there is stuff with html/css/js, and the rest just lack tons of features.

No idea how it works on windows tbh.

Making a cli app? Sure, easy peasy, done in 5 mintues. Making a small GUI app? Strap in for 2 weeks of basics how this framework chose to solve certain issues. It’s funny from that point of view.

He does content? He can be a bit aggressive about his topics, that can rub people the wrong way.

I don’t think he did anything offensively, legally or morally wrong.

I know just he exists, I don’t follow his content.

Humor is difficult.

It’s tough when it’s actually a bad joke or they are telling it badly, but they find it funny.

If it’s a genuinely funny situation / retelling, both of you laughing about the same thing and also about how the person in question is struggling to breathe because they have to laugh so much, that’s funny.

But it really really really depends.

It’s not that they are unfriendly.

But they are 100% there to represent the company’s interest and not yours. If there is any way, to… turn a situation into something where the company gets more money out of it and you get less, it’s their job to make that happen.

In theory they should have employee retention in mind. In practice, nobody does their HR that way anymore.

All my interactions with HR have been “professional polite” and appropriately friendly. There is no reason to be unnecessarily mean, they are also just doing their job.

Some kind of general fitness testing?

You know, involving heart, lung capacity, performance?

All the ones where the idea was to “just start something, grow grow grow, then figure out monetization later” is wild to me.

E.g. reddit. It worked. CEO is rich, site is still online. Somehow they got investors probably, presumably.

I get not having profit. I get not having income, if it’s in some prototype phase. But having no plan or idea whatsoever for how to monetize and still getting VC? Wild.

I had a phase as a teen when I was constantly swearing. My parents told me that, it can’t be that bad and it’s really annoying.

And it’s mostly an impulse reaction and we’re kind of above that.

It doesn’t mean that you can’t express pain or anger. You’re just not insulting people’s ears if you scream “Aaaaah” when you bang your toe against a table leg or something. And your environment really doesn’t deserve it. Most people are somewhat compassionate and you’re just swearing while they try to help… that’s not a pleasant environment for them to be in. It makes it harder to help you.

No to both questions. I just made a change and that was it. And it has never stopped me from expressing anything.

If anything, it lends more weight to the regular words.

A _______ criminal? Or a criminal?

You can still put the same emotion into the words, they’re just not swear words. :)

No.
