That’s what I meant by “use the lab machines”. Basically you can do the work on your own devices if it is Mac or Linux but are expected to ssh or remote desktop into the lab machines if you have windows

They told us we should have a linux or a mac in first year comp sci and if we didn’t we should use the lab machines. Probably because they are both unix like operating systems.

The amount of negativity on that thread alone is enough for me to realise that bluesky is not for me. I enjoy the positivity I find on the fedi and decided I wouldn’t use a platform that algorithmically rewards negativity when I was harassed off facebook. I am glad that others are finding it nicer than twitter but for me it seems much the same but without Elon Musk

Yeh, it is such I minor thing for me that it doesn’t really matter but it is probably the only thing I miss. I have avoided playing most EA, Ubisoft and Epic store games for a while but it still sucks when the one game from EA that I did own and spent some money on has just decided that all linux users are cheaters. For the most part I stick to games that I know have a high chance of always working on linux.

Not having to worry about games straight up blocking linux users from playing because we are supposedly all cheaters…
