Okay

And Daylight Saving Time doesn’t cause it, that would be Standard Time.

I don’t want to be pedantic but it really irks me that people (not you) don’t know the difference and they keep saying they prefer one of the two but it’s always the opposite of what they’re thinking. With legislation being talked about every switch, it would be helpful for people to know what the hell they’re talking about.

Personally, I prefer DST living in CA but I do like Arizona’s year-round ST considering how hot it is in the evenings.

Oh, I hadn’t thought of that though I should have because I recently corrected double slashes in a codebase that interacts with Windows-based servers.

I was about to comment that this is so fake, but it turns out I’ve been on Linux/UNIX too long and flags, paths just look super janky in Windowsland.

Like many others have stated, my (also redneck) school taught primarily Mexican Spanish.

As for it feeling quicker due to it being a fresh install, don’t really expect it to slow down. Windows always slows down over time because its Registry is clogged, the code gets more bloated over time with updates, and the filesystem is kind of trash.

Linux generally stays quite nimble and quick in the long-term. It’s why you can take a decade old computer and still accomplish quite a bit on it with Linux.

This sounds like macOS (in a good way).

What does that mean?

Just the fan over the stove?

Look I love GPL to death but I’m not going to pretend that every OS vendor on the planet needs to give away everything for free.

You can like two things at once, and in my case I love my walled garden, commercial OS for end-user stuff as well as Linux for networking gear and servers. I used desktop Linux for awhile but at the end of the day I like things like Airdrop, AirPlay and the seamlessness of it all.

Honestly, I like BSD operating systems more so than Linux ones despite the licensing arrangements. Linux is open as hell (obviously) but it’s super disorganized. I haven’t found a package manager I like as much as pkg (especially installing binary packages and compiled from source packages side by side with shared libraries).

Looking forward to being downvoted to hell for having a differing view of Linux than all the recent Windows converts.

Yeah that’s a whole other can of worms. I see this a lot at work where people are asking for direct database credentials and cringe every time.

Is it though? I haven’t used a framework since probably 2007 that doesn’t do this. There are the smaller, more DIY frameworks out there but I’ve never used them professionally.

I was always a fan of .cue for this. Dump it all into a big audio file and let the .cue sort it out.

That’s a lot more involved than what I ever did. I only put an Enya track inside of some totally-not-Enya song to confuse my friends, but only if you seeked the track.

Lately I’ve been dealing with tons of invalid byte sequences in MySQL dumps and it makes me question what the hell they’re allowing in there.

I’m mostly used to it now. Though -r is supported in macOS’ rm command I still prefer -R and use it even on Linux where I believe -r is the preferred argument.

My favorite thing was burning discs with hidden tracks, especially before track 1. Or inserting a song/sound within a track requiring you to seek to find it.

Too bad for me this was around the time CDs were on their way out, but I hold hope that my old friends from those days might still have those discs.

Actually that’s a good point that I’ve completely forgotten. Docker uses the modern macOS APIs for virtualization these days, and uses Rosetta2 for amd64 containers.

Edit: Damn you’ve got me excited about FreeBSD again. I’m a much bigger fan of FreeBSD on bare metal but do love Docker and related Linux goodness!

Unless you’re coding from scratch it’s hard to not do this with any modern framework.

It is now, but it was bash before.

But in any case once you start doing anything remotely advanced you’ll find the individual command line utilities are wildly different between macOS and Linux. They seem (are?) much closer to FreeBSD than GNU utilities.
