Thanks, I’ll check it out

The only thing holding me back from asking for an Ubuntu laptop at work is email certificates that we need to install on windows for outlook. Otherwise I’d love to be able to switch

They don’t even let us install wsl2, so annoying

recently got asahi running on an m1 macbook pro. loving the battery life that I get out of it

for an entire year’s worth of development, I honestly would have expected more. Good to see that improvements are being made, but still, it’s pretty small

hopefully the US doesn’t keep being stupid about RISCV lmao

this is great news! we definitely need corporate backing here

Bilt is backed by Wells Fargo I’m pretty sure. All of their other communication has been through email, it’s just this one thing

Context: I’m trying to get points for rent

I’m guessing that it’s going to be hard for us outside of China to have a good idea of just how much has been deleted

im back

This 100%. Even if you don’t like canonical, you can get Ubuntu for free and then later pay for support if you need. They have experience managing fleets of systems.

There’s a post on Reddit where a Brazilian state government org is testing out Ubuntu at scale.

PC version. It had some weird bugs when it came to me putting in our income and looking like it duplicated stuff, but at the end it showed everything just fine.

Got my tax return recently, was a good chunk too compared to last year which was nice

I used H&R block this year because my wife is a contractor and I don’t understand the rules in that scenario lol

Thanks for the info!

Great news to hear. It would be cool if they put out more info/news/blogs about the issues they run into

Haven’t paid much attention to this side of things, but this will definitely be an important goal to reach

I use Linux mint on my old Thinkpad and for the most part it works great. I use Kubuntu on my desktop. Asides from from weird hardware issues I had when initially setting it up, works great as well (Wayland too).

I agree with others: Linux mint, fedora, Ubuntu. Honestly, whatever gives you the least number of issues

Is this going to be a truly new key or just a shortcut?

I didn’t think that the market share was actually changing much? Like it’s low but it’s still used, especially on Linux workstations with nothing else pre-installed

This is nothing for a company like them

I spent 3 days trying to get manjaro to work on my old macbook air 3, and still ran into a borked display sometimes after opening from sleep

I installed endeavour os (online failed, offline worked), and so far I haven’t had a single major issue with it

This is the unfortunate truth. Mathworks tools are heavily used in the engineering space, so it’s an obvious choice for academia to teach.

As much as I try to get my company off of Matlab/Simulink, it’s a challenge. Just so much legacy already written in it

Wow that’s a long time! I think I’m gonna go ahead and try it
