Occasionally only one of my monitors will turn on, I end up having to unplug the power cable to kick the other in to life.

I’m using Debian, with an AMD 6700 XT graphics card, dual monitors via display port. I’ve just ended up accepting it as one of the quirks of the Linux experience.

This is Visual Studio Code which is a very different app to Visual Studio

I’m not against criticism, certainly the number of downvotes suggests I phrased it poorly or should have kept my views to myself.

I tried to present my views in a neutral manner without accusation. I used the term reflect because as you state I have no idea of the user’s situation so it’s for them to reflect.

I used a separate paragraph for the reference to hygiene in order to make a distinction between what I did and did not know. What I had hoped to raise was the distinction between hygiene and just applying masking products. But I didn’t know how to communicate that without being more specific.

I apologise if I caused offense. None was intended. I’m some random person online, my views are my own, if I have caused offense I hope that can be easily dismissed as just another provocative voice online.

Semi colons wouldn’t be valid in file names so they’re ignored so there’s no reason to include hyphens either

It’s not just cultural in terms of nations it’s also dependent on the type of work. You’re going to be critical of a taxi driver stinking of BO when he sits in an air conditioned cab all day, but not somebody doing physical labour in the open air

Dude… Maybe re read what you wrote and reflect on it?

There’s a cliche of Internet folk with poor hygiene and it’s something that should be addressed but it can be awkward for people to bring it up.

Bills?! Bills?! How very dare you suggest that people require compensation for their work.

You’re in a Linux community here. Open Source development is about freedom. All work should be made freely available for users and corporations to enjoy as they wish without having to consider such frivolities of whether anyone should be compensated.

The fact your comment here is at -1 really underlines the immaturity of many users.

I can understand your previous comment getting downvoted because it was a little inflammatory, but your statement here is entirely factual with a neutral tone. So there’s really no reason to disagree with it, let alone pepper it with downvotes.

I do understand - but as a society we’re working to remove unnecessary gendered terms from our language. I believe in doing similar with religious terms.

Language is important. If we’re thanking a deity for the work of government it’s both minimalising the work of elected representatives and exclusionary to other cultures.

god has nothing to do with it

People desperately trying to avoid snaps by any means possible?

There is that one episode where they go into intense detail about how the Internet functions. They even show it!

The newer FFNTs are way cooler though

The cynic in me immediately thinks this is so Facebook can further connect your activity to sell

Does it still revolve around building roads or can cities finally thrive with alternative transport?

A whitelist defeats the decentralisation and openness of a defederated system.

I think you’re mistaken in your assumption it would be easy to identify malicious instances. Bots are notoriously difficult to fight, every time you block one method another workaround will appear.

So, I take it your answer is no?

Have you considered that the issue could well be that the things you’re posting just aren’t particularly amusing?

I never found Joe Wilkinson particularly entertaining - that was until his appearance on Taskmaster which was simply sublime.
