Okay then, I will give it a go. Thanks a lot!

I did a quick search on my trusty DuckDuckGo, but all I could find was “blend oats for 30-60 seconds”, and a lot of disclaimers.

I would assume for a good tasting recipe you should add a little bit of sugar, maybe you have some recommendations about the oats that you use. Can you store it for a few days? Idk, you most likely have more experience on the subject.

If it takes longer than 5 minutes to prepare (also including the cleanup process) I can see why people would rather consume a pre-made product.

Anyways it’s worth to try, if you have a specific recommendation I would appreciate it greatly. Otherwise I will go for one of the recipes I can find.

Actually I never thought about it, but it makes total sense. Is it simple? Could you share your recipe?

I work professionally from Windows, and as a hobby from Linux. My tool of choice for coding in .NET is Visual Studio Code (not FOSS, but there is a FOSS version which is just a bit more limited). It’s not as complete as Visual Studio, but it’s much faster, it has all the basic tools including a debugger, and it’s much more customizable.

Also if you have never done it before, you might love dotnet watch which works with any IDE and lets you make realtime changes to your code while the application is already running.

As for UI, my personal choice is deploying a static website on localhost through Kestrel (it’s less than 100 lines of code for a fully configured one), and then let the user’s browser take care of showing the UI. You could use Blazor if you really want to use C# all the way, but my personal recommendation is to stick to web technologies such as TypeScript and React (using either Parcel or Vite to build your project). Making your UI web-friendly also makes your app cloud-ready, in case tomorrow you will decide that’s something you need.

Finally, you can now deploy .NET apps as a single self-contained executable on all major platforms. But as already recommended by other users, I would keep adopting a web-first approach and go for Docker, and eventually Kubernetes. It’s a lot of work to understand it properly though, so perhaps you can start studying this topic another day in the future.

Feel free to ask me anything if you have questions.

I had the same issue (on Pop!_OS), and I fixed it by tweaking the boot options to change IOMMU settings for my GPU.

I would try testing without the splash option, as that will change when/how GPU drivers are loaded and it might fix the glitches issue (but might still cause other issues).

Could you describe the kind of glitches you are getting?

As a first test (and only as a test) I would try holding space bar during boot, then pressing E while focusing the Pop!_OS option, and removing quiet and splash from the line on the bottom, then pressing enter to boot.

Sorry about the delay.

1. Install Rethink Firewall and follow instructions to configure it;
2. In “Apps” set Gboard to “Isolate”;
3. Add two domain rules for the two Tenor domains as “Trust”.

That’s all.

Gboard with every connection blocked through Rethink Firewall except for “media.tenor.com” and “tenor.googleapis.com” (because GIFs are cool).

I will never really know whether it really protects my privacy or if Google has other means to exfiltrate my data, but from Rethink logs it seems to be working. Unfortunately I have never found any keyboard as good as Gboard, so I would say this a risk I am personally willing to take for the convenience of a great keyboard. What would you say?
