I use a 1tb ssd for the os/apps with my raid5 strictly for storage. Kinda nice if the os needs to be reinstalled or I want to migrate the raid cluster.

When I have no choice but to interact with people, I do my best to treat them with respect. However, I would say I’m generally ambivalent toward people overall and do my best to avoid them. I’m just not a social person and I never will be. Being forced into social settings is exceptionally stressful to me.
Personally, I found Arch to be difficult to get installed. I’m ok with command line stuff once everything is all setup, but having to use it for the installation process is something I found to be too easy to screw up and too time consuming overall. Also, I haven’t seen any drop of vanilla Arch with a GUI installer. For the Arch experience, I generally go with EndeavourOS since it’s easy to install, gives you lots of options for the window manager, and is easy to use once you get it up and running.
If you’d prefer the Debian environment, I think anything from Debian or any of its derivatives (Ubuntu et al) would be a decent choice. My favorite is Linux Mint. I’ve seen a lot of people describe it like “entry-level” Linux, but it’s very capable and user friendly. It’s where I tend to spend most of my time when running Linux and I would say usually requires the least setup since it typically just works out of the box.
There’s also OpenSUSE Tumbleweed if you feel like going a somewhat different direction. I get more “traditional Linux” vibes from OpenSUSE, but packaged up in a user friendly manner. I play around with it from time to time in a VM, mostly when I want to test out some new server package locally. But, that said, it’s still capable of handling anything else I throw at it, so it’s fun to use all the same.
Who let Bear Grylls in here?
I started out with blue switches years ago and they were obnoxiously loud, so I switched to reds and used those for a long time. Though, I kinda got tired of them and decided to give the Keychron banana switches a try several months ago and I’m absolutely loving them. They have a light tactile feeling, but they’re much quieter than Cherry browns. And a huge bonus is that Keychron keys are hotswappable, so if I get any bad keys or feel like switching to a new type, no having to deal with soldering to replace them.
This is really nice. I’ve been using Mint for years and didn’t know about it.
Wait, are you telling me that business ethics are actually a real thing? I thought somebody made that up as a meme. Every corporate executive I’ve ever worked for has been a borderline, if not full blown, sociopath obsessed with nothing more than getting richer at everyone else’s expense. Maybe they all skipped that class?
If you really need some nightmare fuel, some of us use c++ every day and even enjoy it.
In my experience, those things tend to be forced by project managers who believe the highest law of the land is proper scrum. Unsurprisingly, this makes all the devs miserable with no way to change anything because “this is just how it’s done”.
Listen, I’m on a Zoom call with my cult elder planning our next orgy. Can you make this quick?
With this character’s death, the thread of prophecy is severed. Restore a saved game to restore the weave of fate, or persist in the doomed world you have created.
It’s a great time to be making that push with Microsoft now talking about putting Windows in the cloud and adding all sorts of AI bloatware to the OS.
In my case, I use a PCI card with an m.2 slot for my OS drive. I lose a PCI slot, but I already had a few to spare.
