Thank you, I appreciate the suggestions! I’ll look more into a few of those. Swapped over to Linux about a year ago and the Microsoft toolchain no longer fully exists (like Visual Studio). It’s to be expected, but, mostly just means I need to find other tool chains.

What is a good language to code in for Linux if one is used to C#? I didn’t realize this limitation and am considering writing some basic Linux tools for myself.

I only use it to solve specific problems when I can’t find the solution elsewhere. Then I spend the time to understand and rewrite the code myself.
It’s the same workflow as using Stack Overflow, etc. You can’t just copy/paste solutions.
That’s unironically a good idea if you are just getting into it. The trades pay very well and are in high demand.

From the article, it doesn’t sound like that is the case, though.

Always liked using this program as it has just enough tools to be useful, including addons, but not overbearing for moderate image work.
Edit: A note for the group:
It is NOT “production ready.” I wouldn’t even call it “alpha quality”. It “doesn’t not” work.

This used to be the case, which is probably why you thought that. They improved the feature a few years ago.

8·1 month agoAnd if family member x plays one of my games, I cannot play a game or else they’d get kicked.
If you are doing Steam Family Sharing, then the only limit is that you both cannot play the same game at the same time. You can play different games at the same time, even if they are both from your account.
I use the feature all the time, it is great. Convinced my SO to buy a few games already as they tried it from my account, liked it, then bought their own copy so we could play it together.

I’ve heard posting things that are anti-capitalist can reduce it, so be careful what you post!
It really isn’t helpful when you just make shit up. Undermines any point you were trying to make.

53·2 months ago100% behind phone lockers, but, I do agree the price seems too high for this specific implementation. Looks like those hold ~250 phones each and I’m going to guess should cost $500-$1,000 per locker. A school should only be spending $5k-50k on these lockers.
