Received my first 2 sets of programming socks. This one is black/purple, the other set is black/green. The more stripes, the better boost you get for programming, right?

I’ve been a programmer for many years but now I can finally go to the next level!

    Yeah I didn’t take it seriously, that’s why I put the smiley face. :)

    I used Mint for a few years at work. At the beginning it was pretty good, but over the years it kept breaking more and more, and there was no way to upgrade to a newer version of Mint at the time. I was already using Kubuntu at home and it was solid, so now I also run Kubuntu at work.

    The one thing I really miss about Mint is application vino-server. There is no good alternative for it anywhere, which is a shame.

        I think I tried that, but it was nowhere near vino-server. With vino-server I could set the colorspace so low that it looked kinda bad, but the latency from home to work was unmatched. In all the other applications I tried I couldn’t set the colorspace that low (it crashed or wouldn’t start), which also meant that the latency was always too high to comfortably work from home with.

          Ah, not an issue I’ve had to deal with so unfortunately no help there. Most of the time I’m accessing over ssh anyway (with occasional -X, none of those systems are using Wayland yet).
