Boxer-briefs 100%

I’m more of a bottom, if you know what I mean.

Here I am waiting for nigahiga to ever post again.

UK layout is the GOAT. It isn’t that much different from US layout at first, but there are so many more special characters readily available. Particularly useful for multiple languages like Spanish, German, Swedish, etc.

Where is “nu” though?

Shouldn’t UK or at least England be “arse” and not “ass”?

How to introduce religion to a new civilazation

Yeah, it really isn’t for everyone. The advantagees it provides is mostly for developers and companies. If you’re a company, managing a NixOS fork is useful, so all users of the system are on the same page always.

Otherwise the package manager itself can be used on its own. It’s neat being able to use packages from basically any distro without even needing to use a VM.

Nix is daunting indeed, but cool for those who want such tooling

Got to see the northern lights together with my so!

I’d recommend https://typst.app/. Super easy to structure text like LaTeX and 100 times easier to use :)

Not entirely agreeing, but there are some things that are not quite there yet. For me it’s mostly:

• Bibliography sorting
• Spellchecking
• Syntax highlighting for lesser known programming languages like GDScript

Otherwise I don’t really have complaints. If anything LaTeX was the one thing setting me back (and don’t even get me started on Word).

There are official ones and there’s also https://github.com/qjcg/awesome-typst

I took one of those and easily adjusted it to my needs. It’s so easy and intuitive! And fast!!!

Typst is awesome and sooo fast! I literally ported my thesis mid-way to it and haven’t looked back since. Love it all the way.

(Neo)vim. Has everything I could ever need.

Popcorn time

Which programming language(s) do you have in mind? Many already have built-in support for this (Go, Rust, Nim), while others have external tools you could use (Python->Poetry). Otherwise, if you want a “fast” (easy to understand) solution, a shell-script might be a fine solution.

If you want some real power, you could use the nix package manager (as already stated by other comments). It’s easy to install, but you need to learn how to use it, and with that you can easily share dev environments.

I personally don’t like anything JS related. I would simply recommend Go, but even that is not really my go-to. I found learning Nim quite entertaining, and it’s middle -ground between Pyhton and Go, which can also target JS, if you want to.

Is the color named for the inside? I thought it was because of how they turn red, when they’re on their way to mate (link for reference)

Funny name aside, this is literally one of the reasons, why I (and most people on the NW part of South America) am freaking traumatized by cockroaches. Having a single one of this fly at your face as soon as you turn on the lights of a dark (and maybe even moist) room, will give you a heart attack

If you’re not a techy person/power user, I would recommend staying with Kubuntu/Xubuntu (flavors of Ubuntu, that seem familiar to Windows users), or a more loved variant Linux Mint. You’ll have everything you need there, and your gaming will do just fine using Steam thanks to Proton. My first time (~2014) I went with Ubuntu, since it has an easy to use installer (like most distributions), with relatively sane default settings. Nowadays I would recommend Linux Mint or anything Debian based for the stability.
