What Matrix offers differently from Jabber? - Jabber has definable custom xml schemas where you can also define your own protocol on top of it for media exchange, voip and etc. - Also, it is pretty decentralized. In the current incantation

We have exactly the same setup, then :-) I need Win10 for low latency music work and for the odd game, all development work happens in Xubuntu VMs. Windows is essentially a shell where I juggle vms when I need a dev environment for a specif

I've been skipping all the Unity drama by staying on Xubuntu which is really snappy and stays out of your way. Also, Gnome on this laptop (Dell Inspiron 15 7000) gave me (and several others users, as per forum post https://u

Sadly you can't affirm that to all of the affected population, that needs testing. Some mentally ill people like to go out and walk mindlessly all day long. I am sure you know some 'walkers' in your vicinity, there's alw

I'm there with you. Have you found something consistent/stable to debug Rust code? I find the integration with VS:Code to be quite flimsy and friends have been saying that's like the pinnacle of Rust tooling right now, to hav

I'd say "fiddliness" is a characteristic of happiness and focused work. If you overlook most details you are basically just 'doing stuff to get objectives done', which is meager imho. Getting acquainted with detail
