I’ve been quite enjoying Mint as well. Granted, it’s been reeeal light use. But so far loving it. I’ve always enjoyed Debian distros. RHEL can kiss my butt. It was always frustrating to work with at work. I think Slackware was Debian? That was probably my first back in like 2004ish. Generally just works™
Too real indeed.
Nope, it does not. You can install a kernel made just for surface devices and you’ll get mouse emulation via touch, but Mint doesn’t have Wayland yet and it’s my understanding that Wayland is where all the good things, like gestures, lives. So, I’m waiting for that but it honestly works fine without the touch. I’d use it if it was there, but it’s fine honestly.
That said, I’ve been using Linux/osx as my primary at work for a lot of years now so I’m super unfamiliar with even basic sysadmin stuff on Windows, so I’m happy that the surface is now on Linux. Need to move my desktop to it one day, but I honestly almost never use it.
Just installed Mint on my Surface Pro 4 that’s been sitting in a drawer for years and guess what, it’s now useable again! Praise be Linux.
Bainbridge! I love taking the ferry over there!
Oh I definitely remember this. Completely forgot about it
You’ll be happy to know that I bribed my kids into watching the 1990 TMNT live action movie this weekend. The younger one loved it, but the preteen was full of critical commentary the whole time. Go figure. But hey, I won one of them over to the TMNT side.
Same. I have an interview with a cool sounding company tomorrow!
When you’re in VSCode with 10 different red squiggles, who can be bothered?
Edi: Also, OH MY GOD JUNIORS WHO WON’T JUST GOOGLE THE ERROR MESSAGE.
Get out of here with your sensibility!

There’s a joke here about using echo "some python code" > main.py in here somewhere but I can’t find it. Imagine I did instead.
For real. This looks really good.
Same. Keep up the good work.
We were specifically told that it doesn’t count if you’re not at an office the majority of the day. Everybody was joking about doing that at first.
Can I come with? I need to jump ship too.
I don’t know about the meeting part, but the rest of the stuff in the article is correct. Can confirm.
Welcome to the club. Your lan port is over there. (Insert broadcom chip joke here)
