No it was an art project and not ever anything tested to actually work.

Wear a mask.

Sure, but you don’t need a license for mesh.

For real. It feels like we are trying to sell people heroin as a less addictive alternative to morphine.

I wound up using a physical switch that toggles a PC display off and toggles on the TV display so the system just slots it in. It only works because I don’t really need all three working at once (i.e. I just use the TV output to watch TV).

But yeah, neither windows or Linux handles dynamic display changes very well.

It is probably because I am a moron and just took a long time to figure it out, but its always harder to set up network shares with my linux desktop than any other machine in my house. At this point I know how to do it pretty well, but its a LOT more involved because none of the GUI tools seem to really work right.

Like I will share a folder from my server (also running linux BTW) and its instantly viewable on my windows laptop and even my streaming devices, but to discover it on my other linux machine is always a chore that involves editing a few config files and just kinda randomly poking around until it works.

Windows does a lot of sneaky reboots that it doesn’t notify about before or after. I dualboot and windows is not the default OS, so when I leave windows running and come back to linux, I know what happened.

They probably used it as an excuse to send millions of public dollars to the police chiefs brother in law or some shit, that’s usually how this works.

Sounds like they aren’t paying you enough if your role includes being a performer.

Anyone that cannot figure out how to install linux probably shouldn’t be fucking with their operating system in the first place.

You can also just buy a live USB distro and install by doing nothing more than turning off your computer and turning it on again, which is even easier than installing a program in windows.

Furthermore, there is a very real argument to be made that you should NOT be able to EASILY nuke an operating system from within itself. Windows devs would be pretty reasonable to define any program able to easily do that as being malware.

That’s what happens when you start actively making your products worse with every update since like 2003.

The fun part is that unlike an intern, this shit isn’t going to get better at it’s job.

The most technically illiterate leaders are pushing the hell out of using for things that don’t make sense while the workers who know what they are doing are finding some limited utility.

Out biggest concern is that people are going to be using it for the wrong stuff and fail to account for the errors and limitations.
