Now that I think of it, I wonder if the Astro team has AI shit built into their VSCode plugin.

I like DeepSeek more but it’s responses for AstroJS are actually worse from what I’ve seen. I am starting to think I single-handedly trained ChatGPT on Astro at this point lol.

My favorite thing about ChatGPT is telling it consistently I’m writing stuff in AstroJS and not ReactJS.

So, uh where’s this link for a junior position starting out at $145k? Asking for a friend…

It really does lol. Now if people would just pay me to make them websites… I am making a freebie for some friends and hoping I can get some traffic from that though.

It’s funny because after I got fired my production went through the roof because I was able to work on my own stuff without dealing with other people’s bullshit.

I have ASD so once I get into that hyperfocus flowstate, and get pulled out of it, it’s like everything around me just shatters lol. My partner and oldest kid have ADHD so when either or both are around I mostly don’t even bother with code. I was able to get a tiny bit of stuff done this morning but it was mostly stuff I have on mental autopilot like git stuff.

I’ve lost my shit with people over this lol. Just sucks when you are like 3 hours in on something and then someone just comes along and makes small talk.

I was fired from my last job because I was expected to write features AND do helpdesk support at the same time and just no… I was also fired because I suck at programming but still…

1. Mostly movies from yts . mx, and movies and tv shows from watchsomuch . to.
2. Mostly for convenience and I think information should be free. I cam back to the high seas after they decided to have 4,758 different streaming services and kind of hate exclusive as an excuse to get you to pay for one service over another.
3. I have a dedicated 6TB hard drive(wish I would have paid a bit extra for an 8 or 10 though). I also used it for rsync back ups but that’s it.
4. I switch back and forth between Jellyfin and Plex. Jellyfin is a bit fiddly but open, Plex “just work” but is closed source. I try to use free software as much as I can.
5. Both JF and Plex will keep track, but I’ve had issues with JF if a movie or show doesn’t want to run(I think it’s a transcoding issue) sometimes I lose progress of my most recent watched stuff. Kind of sucks. I’ve had more issues with JF than with Plex which sucks.

I settled on Cinnamon after jumping around a bit. I do still like Gnome though even if both are fairly bulky DEs.

I used to use Sublime for notes and then VSCode and those types of text editors work just fine for non code stuff imo. VSCode even has syntax highlighting for Markdown so could be a plus for OP.

I was super lucky apparently because my degree’s curriculum required C# and ASP.NET, on top of our CTO having a big bug up his ass and hitting the switch that disallowed Linux computers to connect to the wifi. Even connecting Macbooks was a huge headache I guess. Dude didn’t fucking care and would just jerk himself off about how hardened the school’s network was.

My laptop was really shitty too but I ended up running Windows 7 in a VM just to get by. But had to do a lot of bullshit between OSes and in the end, it would have just been way better if I had just bit the bullet and used Windows for the time I was there.

I’m probably an outlier and today it’s probably better but if your school gets kickbacks from M$ and you are going for programming just expect it I guess.

LIbreOffice’s .docx formatting sucks when going between it and M$ Word too but someone else already mentioned that.

Not gonna lie, I thought elementaryOS was gonna take off and I guess it never did. I used it on my school laptop when I was in college for most of the time there. It was fine but mostly just a sleaker looking Mint basically.

Been using Linux for over a decade and I will never go back lol.

Finally 30 full minutes!
