While he advocates for it, that’s also a point that Martin brings up multiple times when he talks about his project “fitnesse”.

Basically saying that they left it open how stuff can be saved, but the need has never arisen to actually pivot to a different system.

Unfortunately I can’t help you with Nobara, but I’m surprised you’re having troubles with EndeavourOS.

EOS has been working out of the box for me for almost everything.

Not really. Exceptions are a controlled way of indicating something went wrong in an application.

The only point where you wouldn’t know about the possibility of one is when you don’t know enough about the language features you’re using or when you use a badly documented library or framework.

Yeah, I had a similar case with some authentication middleware I used that was part of a library.

It would always throw an exception when a user wasn’t authenticated instead of just giving me some flag I could check.

Wouldn’t have done it that way, but it was okay for an API controller.

Another upside of Jetbrains over Adobe is that you can get edu-licenses that allow you to use every software of theirs.

The best deal our university could get from Adobe was 25% off on Photoshop if at least 200 students bought it.

Meme is funny, but that exception used as flow control hurts.

Ich lass das mal hier und hoffe es ist korrekt.

Ach, inzwischen machen wir das ganz unterschwellig. Die ganzen deutschen Studenten die bei uns studieren und zurückkommen sind österreichische Schläfer die aktiv werden, wenn sie die geheime Phrase “Schnitzel, aber ohne Tunke” hören.

Like many others already said. Being self taught is ok, but employers need at least some kind of confirmation about your skills. So getting some kind of officisl certificate will make your job search a lot easier.

Microsoft offers a bunch of .NET certificates if you do their C# courses for example. You can also become a certified Linux professional.

Find something that interests you and then start learning by doing some tutorials. The most important thing is that you have fun and won’t burn yourself out working in a field you don’t enjoy.

Where I’m from there’s demand for Web Devs, Java devs, .NET devs, It Support, Network Engineers, Embedded systems, whatever.

Dann einfach runterrollen lassen, wenn er vollgekaggert ist.

Genial!

Why anyone would spend 1500 dollars and 300 hours on a parody is beyond me but it’s impressive work nonetheless for a solo dev.

The gameplay was fun to watch, but mostly just because the characters steps sounded like their shoes were sticky after they stepped into some spilled cola or zombie guts or whatever.

Reasonable

No one told me before I bought it, and it’s not mentioned on the steam store, see the point of the specs. So I don’t quite understand what you mean with “if they hadn’t told people”, because they sure didn’t unless you’re on that specific social media they did it on.

I’ve watched all those feature videos before and they don’t mention that I shouldn’t get my hopes up.

Anyways I don’t want to occupy your time and argue, in the end I’m just super miffed and disappointed because I had a free weekend for once and was looking forward to binging CS2.

I strongly disagree. The game has massive performance issues and I’m getting 10-20 FPS on the lowest possible settings with my 2080 Super. At that point it looks worse than CS1 and performs worse.

Also the 7 FPS or so on the main menu are ridiculous, unless they’re using my pc to mine crypto in full force.

If they release a complete game for 50€ or 90€, then I expect that shit to be a super smooth experience, even on the minimum recommended specs, which do in fact note a GTX 980 if I recall correctly.

So either get the specs correct, optimise the game properly or get out of the business. I’m a programmer myself and I’d be deeply ashamed if I released software that performs so poorly.

In case you’re interested I’ve tried out a few things and kinda settled on fish, but will still use bash for scripting.

Fair point. For me using a distro dedicated to making Arch accessible just is more attractive than having an installer and being on my own afterwards.

But yeah, EndeavourOS is pretty much just an installer with purple space theming.

Definitely. For now every fix that worked for Arch, also worked for me.

I think EndeavourOS profits greatly from being so close to Arch, because right now every fix that worked for an Arch user also worked for me.

Idk much about other distros, but maybe try Pop OS first and see if you like it.

As I mentioned I’ve ran into really weird issues with steam because of some missing dependencies that are mentioned on page 49 of google search results.

This will send me down another 4h rabbit hole today, thanks 😬
