No one particularly interesting. I dig linux, politics (to a point), BBQ’ing, TTRPGs and poker.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Why you should (probably not) run SlackwareEnglish
1·1 year agoLate reply, but I suppose you’re correct; I think the option to choose what to install, the lack of pre-created desktop stuff (“home/$username/Videos” for example) and the requirement that you handle software that isn’t in the base install all make a Slackware installation less bloated than most. Maybe not at install time, but over the life of the install you end up with less garbage IMHO.

HOW IS THIS NOT COMMON KNOWLEDGE??? I’ve already had my kids and got a vasectomy. It would be so good to have photos like these hanging on the walls for when my boys bring home partners.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Why you should (probably not) run SlackwareEnglish
161·1 year agoIf you hate bloat you like Slackware. It doesn’t assume anything about how you want to use your computer, so it’s more painful for a lot of folks. Other distros will try to do things for you and will ultimately end up doing something someone doesn’t want. With Slackware you learn a lot and you get a rock-solid system that will do whatever you like, but you have to be willing to manage it.
Not FOSS, but Mega Hit Poker is the one I play.
I’ll look into that, thanks!
I just don’t want to be a windows systems engineer anymore, and I’m having trouble getting interviews for linux administration roles.
For sure, my company is willing to pay for it, I wouldn’t be paying for it myself.
I just don’t want to work with windows anymore, and every job I get is windows centric; therefore I get a small amount of linux experience on my resume and the cycle continues. I’m contemplating getting the RHCSA and the RHCSE in order to get linux-centric roles (because although I’m down to take a cut in pay and settle for a junior position, most of the jobs available seem to be for senior or mid-level positions).

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Remote or hybrid workers, would you rather work a 4 day week on site, or WFH completely for 5 days a week, for the same pay?English
1·2 years agoI’m full WFH, and if I plugged one in it would be an instant firing. I don’t have time any for anything but work in the day anyways, they have very high expectations.

Used to use fluxbox and it did this; fantastic feature.
