Why-AreWeUsing-BothDashes-And-CamelCase? It creates unnecessary ambiguous situations where you don’t know if a command is Word-Word-Word, Word-WordWord or WordWord-Word. It’s like how PHP names its primitives all over again. Both dashed-separated-commands and CamelCase commands are fine, just, why both?
Fortunately or not, I don’t have experience with powershell.
I escaped the windows ecosystem when windows 7 lost my user folder in the abyss.
It happened again with a Windows 10 update. Granted, I think it was a beta release, but still.
oof, I can’t keep track of the number of bugs windows 10 was able to slap on people’s face.
Friends loosing administrator access on their computers, my dad loosing access to its files due to the newly force-pushed “onedrive integration” (bullshit, uploading the entire drive of a user to “the cloud” without asking is not a feature, is a theft and a crime)… it’s endless
I hope you weren’t a victim of that bug.
Fortunately I wasn’t because I’m not in the beta program. I already would have ditched Windows if i wasn’t for needing to do school work on Microsoft Office, though I have been transitioning from Microsoft apps to open source apps on my last Windows system for a while. Soon, hopefully.
The only decent Linux app I can’t find is a note taking platform that supports drawing/handwriting with electronic styluses and has palm rejection so I can write naturally on my laptop/tablet convertible instead of trying to hold my hand above the screen. It’s the last piece of the Linux puzzle for me.
They did actually manage to ship that file-deletion bug in production. It just didn’t affect that many users, because they pulled the update a few hours later: https://news.softpedia.com/news/microsoft-explains-why-windows-10-version-1809-deleted-user-files-523152.shtml
Top tier development work right there /s
About that, hope I can help, as I use a tablet to take notes while studying from home.
I use a 10-years old wacom tablet which has three inputs (libevent on linux separates the lateral buttons, the stylus and the touch area).
I’ve disabled the touch area through my configs (I use swaywm, so I setup the input directly from its config) to avoid bumping my hand on the surface and leaving random marks.
I use xournalpp as my note-taking application and I’m very satisfied. It has some quirks from time to time (he likes to crash on one of my systems), but nothing that you can solve by saving frequently.
It’s been four months and I have no problem with my workflow. I even configured the tablet side buttons to select different tools, although from a custom script which hooks to ydotool to reproduce the key combination for each tool.
I also use Xournal++, but it doesn’t have palm rejection when drawing on a touchscreen. I could use a wacom tablet, but ideally I would like to do everything from a laptop/tablet hybrid because I need it to be as portable as possible when I’m rushing across my university’s campus (which is quite large) between classes (though this year I don’t need to worry about that because I have online classes).
huh that is different then. It really boils down to how your hardware works.
I suppose the laptop stylus works only by pressure/contact, so not like a tablet stylus. In that case, a friend of mine uses a special kind of glove that is specifically made to prevent the hand from being recognized by the touchscreen.
I could ask her later, but in the meantime I think they are called stylus gloves or something on the lines.
A touchscreen that supports active styli instead of the simple capacitive ones are pretty similar to a drawing tablet, but it does require the software to understand how it works.
Interesting, I though windows or a specific driver allowed to disable one of the input modes.
