I find coffee very approachable for people without any experience. If you have a good barista they should be able to make a good recommendation for you. Maybe start with something nutty or chocolatey and if you are a bit more adventurous, try a coffee with a berry flavored profile. For me the big surprise was when I started with specialty coffee that I could taste the difference between very small changes when pulling a shot.
Why should we wait for SteamOS? I’m using Pop_OS! on my gaming machine and can play all new games with the Steam compatibility mode. Baldur’s Gate 3 and Kingdom Come: Deliverance II work perfectly fine. I was quite surprised that there are no problems at all and happy that I can go Windows free now
The number of times I've seen people waiting for SteamOS makes me kind of excited that there's so much demand for an alternative to Windows, nervous that a SteamOS general release isn't going to live up to expectations and frustration that that "demand" isn't moving to other distros of its own accord or otherwise being captured by someone savvy.
I think overall it means that "people", even if they have a more positive view of Linux than they did 10 years ago are still lacking the confidence and know-how to be able to make an actual switch.
There are reasons, sure, but there's absolutely a pool of people right now who would be suitable for Linux and appreciate the switch but there just isn't enough activation energy there to get them over the line.
Seriously, the moment there's a linux distro that really "just works", even with games on NVidia cards, I think Windows will lose a very large chunk of market share. So many people are sick of it, but most people still fear that stuff won't work right on Linux.
Anyway, Valve is probably the most likely party to pull that off.
Why, though? If the Windows subsystem for Linux can provide many people an adequate environment for dev work, why can't the equivalent Linux subsystem for Windows provide an adequate gaming platform?
Even Microsoft learnt that with WSL, hence why WSL 2.0 is a plain VM, hardly any different from Virtual Box or VMware Workstation, other than is already on the box and doesn't cost extra.
Here in Argentina I think we plant in the same spot soy and corn, or soy and sunflower, or other combinations. Each crop is better for the temperatures and rain of each season. So I also guess it's more effective to use a annual crop (that is actually only a few months in the field, not the whole year).
I have both a centralized Confluence instance and the documentation in GitHub. A GitHub action converts the markdown to Confluence to stay in sync. It's very handy, because developers like to document in markdown on GitHub, but business people tend to favor Confluence. One additional feature you get from this is the search over all repos, which doesn't work without additional tooling in GitHub.
We moved away from LastPass for the reasons you mentioned and for the problem that I couldn't recover the password of a business account. The account was just not usable and they couldn't even delete it, so once someone made a mistake while opening it, their email address was blocked. I think they fixed this since we moved, but 1Password is not standing in my way and does everything reliably and quietly.
They have apps for all (mobile) OSes and even a native Linux app, what I really appreciate. I just saw they also have a CLI, I have to test this, too.
I'm just a happy customer with ~60 users and not affiliated.
I wouldn't call living and working in Thailand for 10 years, speaking fluent Thai and passing an interview in Thai for your citizenship straightforward, but YMMV.
But at least they're dogfooding – the feature list is really short, but the quality is always good. I also wouldn't want to use it as my only conference tool, but if zoom is down, it makes a good backup.
