  I have been using an all AMD system for years on Linux and haven’t had any issues. Some coworkers with Nvidia graphics said it was a nightmare. So it must be the AMD drivers

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A New Look for git.rela.dev⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  seems like a git gui project. but I am still not 100% sure if that is the correct answer

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone know of self-hostable security cameras?⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This might not be 100% what you’re looking for but I am running Reolink cameras and a Qnap NAS with QVR PRO. The reolink cameras are accessible through IP and some protocol I can’t remember right now. So you might be able to get them to work with your setup

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Inshellisense: IDE style autocomplete for shells⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Found that article recently. It is a great look into what MS is doing. Makes sense on why they killed Atom so quickly after the GitHub acquisition. I still need MS for some work stuff but almost everything else has been migrated to JetBrains for my IDE.

  I am really hoping that JavaScript comes out with a native typescript so the MS bullshit dies.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Become a Better Programmer by Taking a Shower⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  i do the same. If I get stuck on something best thing to do is get away. Shower, walk, food shopping, etc… just get away from the problem and destress so you can tackle it with a fresh perspective

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Which language you wish would really grow and reach mainstream adoption?⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Until recently I never heard of crystal. There is a humble bundle for programming that includes a crystal book. That was the first time I heard of it.

  I will have to take a look at the language. Who knows when having knowledge of crystal will be useful

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it too early for Christmas? by TheCraftyMaker⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I try to make stuff like this early also. The holidays come up too quickly and I am always rushing to get things done. So I normally start a few months early and keep them boxed until needed

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Choose wisely⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Have to go with the almond joy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the name of this type of image⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Nighttime satellite light map?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bruno HTTP client, offline alternative to Postman/Insomnia⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I know this isn’t going to work for everyone but thunder client for vscode and the integrated rest client in intellij work decently. I will have to take a look at this client though since I do use insomnia for some work specific stuff

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wayland Support for IntelliJ-based IDEs | The JetBrains Platform Blog⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I recently made the switch to JetBrains a few weeks ago. I am running Arch with KDE. I haven’t noticed any issues with any of the JetBrains apps. Looking forward to the Wayland changes to see if there are any performance changes
