and the linux desktop
I switched fully over and am in the process of degoogling and de-microsofting my life. No more easy defaults of VS Code, back to custom configuring my emacs. No more surveillance, self-hosting and encryption. No more shitty windows gaming, Linux and Proton for gaming bliss!
Dam even switched over to Emacs. My dude you didn't have to go that far. :)
Especially when vi is better
Fight me🤺
(I kid, I kid, but not entirely ;)
I finally wiped the windows partition off my main home PC last week. Feels good, man.
"So yeah! Emacs, huh?"
No love for jetbrains?
It's still commercial, proprietary software
Vscodium has been a very usable replacement for me. You lose some of the ms first party plugins (ssh being the most notable) but largely it just works otherwise.
I use this extension to get SSH support for VSCodium It works great!
With the advent of the steamOS console, you're actually correct! If it's anything like my deck it's trivial to launch it in desktop mode and use it like a normal linux desktop. This is the gateway to putting linux in front of bored kids everywhere.
Wait what?
Awww sadly it was just a rumor. https://bsky.app/profile/gamingonlinux.com/post/3lhe2febew22h
Even so, hook up a steam desk to a monitor with a mouse and keyboard and that's a linux desktop, that's right now today.
pop the champagne 🍾
we are celebrating tonight
I've been dual-booting for about 2 weeks now, and I've been spending so much time in Fedora Silverblue because it's just so nice. I mean, most of the shit I do is browser stuff, so I have no issues there. Most of the time I can get apps to work, but my only gripe is not being able to use NextDNS alongside Proton VPN like I did on my windows computer 😭. I just don't know how to get it to work, and idk how to revert my DNS settings in terminal back to default instead of NextDNS.
But like everything else is fine, and I can still do my schoolwork.
