i mean i guess if you want to be a frontend dev then sure but that's part of the parcel
<midfavila>
i've chosen a career that specifically doesnt require crapware
<midfavila>
riteo yes
<midfavila>
it's annoying at first
<midfavila>
because the keys are very, very, very heavy
<asimovc>
what career you choose?
<riteo>
the heavy keys are a very good thing actually
<midfavila>
but once you adjust, unless you have itty bitty baby fingies, it's pretty easy
<riteo>
I hate thumb typing, qwerty keebs were never made for portability
<midfavila>
i can hit 60-70wpm@99% on it now
<midfavila>
i disagree
<riteo>
you know what I'm playing with on my phone
<midfavila>
blackberries are excellent
<riteo>
thumbkey
<riteo>
it's a weird swipe key thing
<midfavila>
asimovc: at the moment i'm a computer technician for a logistics company
<riteo>
instead of pressing a lot of tiny things you have this 3x3 grid of buttons with common keys and you can swipe to the less common ones
<ivyfri12_>
n900 is kinda pain in the ass to type on, but its still way better than onscreen keyboards
<midfavila>
when they hired me they outsourced literally all of their IT and they even hired a computer operator because none of them wanted to touch tech
<midfavila>
so i built a little machine using a board from pine64, plopped armbian on it, and moved all of the outsourced stuff like the site, point of sale, etc, into the back
<asimovc>
so you just need to use the crap in your work?
<midfavila>
neb
<midfavila>
i don't touch it
<midfavila>
the machine in the back gets sshd'd into by my uconsole or reform and i just do everything in text mode
<asimovc>
what you do exactly?
<midfavila>
works fine
<midfavila>
asimovc: i manage the point of sale and transaction databases, an email system, the company website, etc
<asimovc>
so just admin stuff in system?
<midfavila>
pretty much
<asimovc>
yeah thats great
<midfavila>
it's a small company so as long as things keep chugging along my job these days mostly boils down to updating packages and rotating backups once in a while
<midfavila>
easy asf
<asimovc>
i still need the stuff but i moved career for not even need windows
<midfavila>
nice
<asimovc>
maybe one day i move to no need of the bloat
<midfavila>
the only person who uses windows in the company is the operator they hired which is annoying
