Kotlin on Android. There's no reason to use Java afaik, as older Java libs can be used in a Kotlin codebase.

It's a vulnerability that affects secure boot through grub. MS is the interested party in patching it because they're the ones selling secure boot certifications. It doesn't surprise me a bit if the open source community is not interested in patching secure boot holes.

For now. But what I can say from my experience with VS Code is that their tunnel connection is far more stable than a direct SSH one; a tunnel also lets you punch through the workplace VPN, so that's what I keep using.

Well, yes, it currently lacks several basic things. But remote development is a killer feature to me and they seem to be prioritizing it.

The bottom line is that a windows update broke grub. Again.

nice, yet another company to avoid as either employee or customer

Secure boot borking systems? Windows assuming it's the only OS on the machine? I'm shocked

I keep a small local knowledge base with common fixes for problems I find recurrently (over and over again in some cases).

It has a bit over 1,300 lines of markdown files split by category of problem. It saves me the trouble of finding that exact solution in stack overflow that fixed this exact problem 5 months ago.

I still occasionally need to use one of these two

# for plasma desktop
alias kplasma='plasmashell --replace & disown'

# when kwin crashes or acts weird
alias kbug='if [ "${XDG_SESSION_TYPE}" = "x11" ]; then kwin_x11 --replace & disown; else kwin_wayland --replace & disown; fi'

that is a painfully bad list of ~~requirements~~ bullshit
