I will second the Roku. I tried this a few years ago and kept running into issues. Some sites like Netflix don't offer HD resolution on PC. Then there are other services that have sketchy support for Linux. HBO and peacock are 2 examples.

I use my PC for personal streaming and a Roku for the main TV

I have been on Arch a few years now. I switched before the installer was a thing because I wanted to learn more about building my own system. Got hooked and still using it as a daily driver. I normally have to reinstall every 6 months or so. Usually my issues are all self inflicted. I'll try something new and cause something else to break. I have a laptop that has been running for 18+ months without any issues. But that is web browsing and light text editing.

So the distro is stable just depends on how much you tinker with it, but that's true for all distros

I think they are referring to making employees miserable. Remote work has been very beneficial for employees. More time with family, more flexibility, and you don't have a manager breathing down your neck constantly. So employers want the control back.

Then there is also political pressure from local governments who are feeling the pinch from reduced taxes in their districts. Got to bring people back to the office so they spend money in the district.

I got a rar file for work a few weeks ago and had the same thought. 'RAR is still a thing!?!?'

I have 2 places like that near me. Both aren't 24/7 but no one knows anything about how the stores are run. One is a cafe and the other is a gelato shop.

You would think the gelato shop would be busy during the summer but there are always 3-4 guys chain smoking in front of the shop. It is so bad they had to put a walled off section in front of the shop to keep the smoke from going to the neighboring stores. So pretty sure it is a front for something

Right now fleet is basically a community edition. They had stated there will be a paid version. So I am wondering how many features will be locked behind a paywall. Hopefully they have all the features from the beta available and just add some enterprise features to the paid version.

I really miss atom, would have been great if MS didn't kill that project. It would be interesting to see how it would have compared to code.

I have looked at lapce and I am hopeful it will mature enough to replace vscode. I haven't had the time to see if it works enough to replace vscode for my daily work, but I am planning on trying it again soon.

Fleet seems promising but not sure how I feel about another JetBrains editor.

I quit waiting for them to come back in stock. I ended up getting a Libre Computer Le Potato. 30-40$ on Amazon and so far it works just fine. The OS is a bit of a pain to install, but if you're familiar with Linux you should be good

I have been going through Azure training for work and I have been doing all my training/dev on Arch. I haven't run into any issues with c#. Haven't had to use Omni Sharp that I can recall but vscode has been working fine with c#
