I have too many toothbrushes
But I run a summer festival on linux!
Our media servers are W7 (!) but I access them with VNC. And lots of screens/beamers here are on PI computers.
…then of course we need a windows laptop for the wireless mics, for the FoH configuration, the videowall, stuff like that. Mails and docs are google anyway, remote access is teamviewer.
I can’t run it all on linux, even if I sit at a linux computer the most.
Why do you think Immutable Distros are all the rage these days? Beyond deleting shit, there’s always Fucking Up shit.
I built an entire theatre using Linux. Architect was on autocad, that was alright, but engineering was on vectorworks & there I had to ask for .dxf exports.
Qlab (macos) is 100% a no-go, I actually own a macbook just for this piece of software.
Isadora runs on wine, but video play is problematic. Isadora is a video mapper/VJ/mixing software.
Of the big three of lighting console software, only Chamsys’ MagicQ runs on Linux. Infuriating when you know Grand MA consoles are linux-based. ETC? Don’t ask.
It’s niche (how about Enttec or DMXKing interfaces configurator?) but it’s my niche. I survive doing things differently, and, yes, owning a dual-boot AsahiLinux/MacOS device.
That you can “do everything that windows does”. You can’t. You can do similar things, you can do different things, you can do basic things, yes, but Linux can’t do everything that windows does.
disclaimer: on linux since 2006
Yes, a catastrophy. I never had lenses degrade so fast, and we’re talking expensive Zeiss stuff with medical coverage.
That was my first “no” here, never again.
Next time ask your lenses without. Mines are the same, I have a new prescription & just told the shop “no”. No anti-blue, no ant-reflection, no nothing, just the hardest material available.
Indeed. If whatsapp isn’t on the list, then I have all the confirmation I need.
Not Ketchup.
On a des valeurs en Belgique. Surtout sur l’assaisonnement des frites, la hauteur du col de mousse de la biere, et le caractère optionnel d’un gouvernement de plein exercice.

In Belgium: Tartare or Mayo. Andalouse for the gal, thanks
In the UK: Salt and Vinegar
In both cases: I will have to change seat if you plop yourself in front of me with your poor fries inundated by ketchup. Only the French do that, and it is a Casus Belli in my book.
Proton I guess? First tier is free, it’s encrypted, your data is protected by Swiss privacy laws… There’s an app for your phone and also a single VPN account as well.
They don’t have a linux client for their Drive storage solution so I am mad at them but it may fit the ticket for you.
Yup! Must say this stemmed from a not-so-long-ago public comment by a “lead actor” which later took an hour-long dressing down by the director straight through his face. He apologized.
That what I do is easy and that I’m “just pushing buttons”. Yeah, I’m pushing the right button at the right time because the whoke shebang has been program’d, cued, mixed over weeks of rehearsals so that, come show time, it’s all by magic. Magic of pushing the right button at the right time while also reading the brochure, watch the stage, issue cues to other dept sometimes in 2 different languages.
Easy peasy!
Hang on to your suspenders: I wear crocs 24/7/365
Summer, rain, snow, work, whatever. A pair lasts about 2 years now, in the past they where more sturdy. After a while you’re going to, first, slip on wet surfaces because of the sole being completely bald, then you’ll go through and get wet feet (or a rusty nail).
It so lightweight, so flickable away, once you start you can’t come back. I always get the “crocband clogs” in red, they don’t have lateral holes which, yeah, is more practical irl when you daily them.
The Left ranked first at the elections in France, so suddenly much, much better than the expected brown/black outcome.
Working, but I love my job: stage manager for a jazz festival!
E16 was better
What’s getting old is continuously asking for a Linux Drive client. I will keep on whining about it, probably until the end of my subscription.
So it is not sarcasm. As I, too, am getting old I just tend to repeat myself. A lot.
Must have been Lee Scratch Perry. Not a song, a handful of tapes played over and over and.
