My device doesn’t have a graphics card and only has two threads, so I guess it’s just for higher end devices?

Tried it, my device crashes every 2 minutes in. Not worth the effort for now.

Then what good is a state for? Let’s get down to anarchism once and for all!

As long as public money -> public code, this could potentially be a net positive for stopping predatory AI practices from Microsoft and buddies. Still, taking away funding from other projects could also be catastrophic for everything else.

Executives are also trying to use it to eliminate the jobs of artists, and I feel it’s wrong to try and obsolete something people love doing.

Luddism, much?

Do you really need a cool usable theme to be productive, whatever the crap that is? Are you 7 years old?

Prior to going into the post, I was just hesitant to try it but curious. The fact that they are working on releasing Cosmic to other operating systems and how comprehensive the piece of news is (for instance, featuring a section of what’s present and what’s missing at this stage of development) is what may have just sold me into trying it.

Who the fuck cares

I’m afraid basing their distro off TempleOS would be a bit too hard.

The summed up version of your comment is that you also go out of your way to work around the database issue.

the lack of XWayland support scares me

I’ve been using niri lately and couldn’t believe so many apps wouldn’t launch. I didn’t know that was the issue. I had been manually editing so many desktop entries to make them work…

What in the cock

This post reads like going to a Linux forum and asking for issues with the GTX660, which absolutely does not work on Linux: your concerns are legitimate and it’s reasonable not to buy all the good comments on VS Code based on your personal experience. However, it works on my machine. And it also works for many others.

You also mention to have been doing fine with “just vim”. I’d argue that you should face VS Code with the same humility you faced vim. If you’re up to the task, take your time to learn its quirks just like you did with Vim’s. Otherwise, you’re better off ending your career with the toolsuite you know for now.

Reading this feels like reading those famous math textbooks, which are for people who are already well-versed in the field yet kept being shoved into undergraduate courses.

Another commenter mentioned going by a pseudonym, which is pretty much what I had in mind - I’ve always been grown up on the idea of not disclosing your full name nor your physical location, but many universities’ websites not only shows the full names of their profs, but also their coordinates and their office hours.

There’s a publicly available record of where and when someone is readily present, for better and, especially when it comes to preserving one’s safety, for worse.

Let me make this point clearer: would you publicly disclose where you live or where you spend most of your time? I hope you see some of my concerns now.

I trust this is the right place to find like minded people and maybe find a solution, not to argue about what an academic should or should not be.

I think you did alright by resorting to flatpak. When it comes to closed source applications, it’s not uncommon for problems like this to appear every so often.
