Well, that totally makes sense, thanks. I’ve been doing it the other way around for some reason

Mouthwash before brushing? Because you don’t rinse out the toothpaste?

Yeah, fair enough. I’ve just noticed that a clean setup requires more and more workarounds in regedit and policy editor etc. Updates reenabling stuff like that is just infuriating

Not completely sure, but I believe that is a kernel thing. Hence present on all distros. Perhaps because the kernel is turned for throughput/server workloads. I hope this will be resolved with new schedulers though (e.g., through sched_ext).

My main gripe with windows is that it’s gradually turning to adware/spyware after MS decided to go for that sweet data collection revenue. That also means a shift in the focus of the development of the OS, as it’s not being developed for the benefit of the users anymore.

That, and software development processed are more tedious. Although today I’m sure I could find a workflow that works with WSL or vcpkg.

Edit: Oh, and everything turning to webapps on the desktop. Love staring at white canvas while it waits for a server response.

Probably no ads on your self-hosted frigate/jellyfin pages though, so you can just keep using chrome for that ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Is it possible to disable this organization-wide for the handful of windows devices we have? Or do we have to subscribe to some kind of device management service from MSFT? We currently use standard o365 subscriptions

Cool, that’s great news for Apple users

Apple produces hardware for their walled garden, whereas Google imposes their terms on third parties. I can’t speak to how this works legally, but thats the main difference as far as I understand.

That’s good then. I also love coffee and drink absurd amounts during the day :⁠-⁠)

The half-time of caffeine in our bodies is pretty long, like 6 hours IIRC. Might affect the quality of sleep even if you manage to fall asleep

Oh yes, fuck dh with a rusty pole. I’ve had to paclage some stuff at work, and it’s a nightmare. I love having to relearn everything on new compat levels. But the main problem is the lack of documentation and simple guidelines

Arch does have a testing repo though

I just lean on tab and let copilot fill the screen with garbage

Yup. We’re mostly a linux shop at work, but Fusion360 is almost the only thing we keep Windows around for

Out of curiosity, which step in the arch install did you have issues with on your first two attempts?

LGPL ftw
