@freemo which one out of qtile and i3 makes you feel happy to be alive, (i'll try that one)? I'm guessing qtile.

@freemo lol (https://www.reddit.com/r/unixporn/comments/3iy3wd/stupid_question_what_is_ricing/) i had no idea. Well, I'm doing a server some time this week. Maybe I should try one of these tiling window managers and see how hard I crash and burn. 😆

I've never liked a desktop as much as the one I have now 🐎. There is no turning back.

@Absinthe I think I’m missing out on some fun every time you post these, then I remember I’ve got a backlog of stuff that needs doing and I suppress the urge to go to the site. Unfinished work must beat procrastination if payments are to be made. Maybe if the site is still up later I’ll go and check it out

@freemo do you mean referring to women not known to you by these terms? I find it odd that people would not call loved ones by these terms, regardless of gender. They aren’t offensive are they? I find all of those terms very endearing and nurturing in tone. I must be a monster.

@shibaprasad I lied about profiles not being well supported in Linux. I just installed 2.9 in a fresh pop!os and it’s completely complete. It’ works like a charm. This is very handy when you have multiple github/bitbucket/azure/aws accounts and need to flick between them. Life is good.

@pganssle there needs to be a common ground clause somewhere.

@starwall Build a bot that posts your account balance after every transaction. Should help save a bit of money.

@pganssle fair call. My relationship with work is different, I have concurrent “customers”, and those relationships span years. There is no way I could manage anything other than BYOD. NDA’s already cover IP mess, I don’t think it matters what is sitting on my disks really all that much.

I have never worked for a US tech giant though. Nor have I had your specific experience, and my customers are probably little fish in comparison. :)

@design_RG reminds me of my brain

@pganssle I usually have a BYOD arrangement, I wonder with yours, how much the contract would change? It’s in their interest to have staff living out of work devices. I’ve seen salary staff leave their laptops at work for work life balance. I’ve always found my investment in the job overrides this mentality and I do all kinds of shit on work computers at home as well as a little extra work as a result. So when I start somewhere they have to invent or apply a BYOD policy.

@pganssle that sounds like you are given a fair degree of flexibility, providing your output conceptually fits the banner of some product. The contract might get weird but above all you can act autonomously which is great

@shibaprasad Vivaldi, and Epiphany are all I’ve used for a while.

Thing about Vivaldi:
- theme-color support is cool.
- Don’t try and Ctrl-F Find while you have dev tools open, eventually at some point in the future your machine will freeze.
- it’s not well supported in Linux, but the profile switcher is super cool. You can set up a profile for connecting to multiple Accounts of the same service.

Things about epiphany:
- beautiful gnome ui.
- Don’t try to open dev tools

#savage dog attacks crocodile and wins. In other news It’s 43 degrees Celsius outside. How cool is that?
