A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

So your spare time is worth less than your working time? I feel the opposite way.

In my spare time nobody is going to ask me to justify why I delayed a meeting by 10 minutes because my screenshare wasn't working

Fair enough. I feel like both of my time, working and spare, is worth more than fiddling with Linux. I want to use my computer when I want to use it. Not fight it.

Ssshh. Let's not give away that little hint - there may be bosses present.

I learned Linux on the boss' dime and it created tons of career opportunities.
