I want to be a great parent, and be able to make games and/or music for a living - dream I shall!
Short of that, I want to have a pet penguin and live in a quirky house by the sea like a character in some kids book, that sounds excellent.
Same on all counts, best of luck. ♥️
Ubuntu all the way! :) Before I learned there were other ones, then wound up back on Mint again after a trip around the houses. :)
That’s interesting to know! Open source is the way to go where we can.
I do like using (proprietary sadly edit: see below) AutoHotkey on the Windows machine at work, aaaand thanks to learning about Hammerspoon I’ve been bitten with the itch to do this on Linux at home! :)
Edit… waaaait AHK is open-source?! Nice :) I’ll do some digging after work! :)
I love making editor UI for developer tools at work - way too much care goes into trying to make things pretty and maybe even help us save time if we’re lucky! 😅
I do, this is it! Recently remade in Hugo :)
It’s mostly things I’ve made or been interested in (music, game projects, musical web nonsense), but mostly just… I’ve always had this site, and am attached to it in a way?
It used to be the name of a comic I made for fun, and the gets used for everything to remind me to keep that feeling of fun and making stuff for enjoyment. :)
Must admit, I’m frequently torn between the private nature of why I binned facebook vs writing there, but meh, I’m happy and that’ll do.
I “broke” linux mint just by trying to pop KDE on, had to timeshift because it messed up my keyboard layout and a whole bunch of other things with my display.
I don’t know how people do these crazy changes without pain, and have a feeling the answer is simply “there’s pain” 😂
I may have flatpacked it because I’m too impatient for the official apt-get to have 3.0 :) I then remembered I have no art skills and closed it after drawing squiggles :)
Yeah… I got a disappointed look… 😂 thank you, excellent
I have a silly reason! I got a windows phone and loved it, so was happy to use Edge (when it was still its own thing and not effectively Chrome).
Edge’s PDF viewer was great, and in general things were speedy, got out the way, and best of all it synced bookmarks to my phone. :) I also liked the rewards system for using bing, and between microsoft and google, I regarded google as worse ethically. (Obviously… yeah not a solid argument)
I think I switched back to firefox and variants mainly because I started caring about my data, open-source, and also those advantages Edge had were eroding in real-time, with adverts, nagging, and Windows things creeping in - the rewards ended, the chrome thing, it started feeling like the IE days again.
One of my coworkers uses it still, and it pains me to see what new AI gimmick is being shoehorned in.
If I stopped for dumb reasons, I like to think I came back wiser for it. :)
