I’m sorry, but I have respect for a guy who can expertly sex up his partner. A guy who sees sex as filthy and indignant? Nope, I don’t respect that crap
Through my eyes the first guy has dignity, the second has problems.

This blog does a fairly straight-forward job on explaining the basics. For me, I learn best in an interactive 1:1 or well-constructed video, so ChatGPT was priceless. I could ask it stupid questions all day long, and after throwing some different ideas around I started to see the essential parts and just let my prior knowledge of PS, .NET, and C# WPF take it from there.
At the end of the day, all that really matters is using the PresentationFramework assembly and creating a window:
I appreciate the feedback. For the Linux side it’s for personal projects and learning opportunities so starting with something familiar and growing from there is my goal.
I dabble in C and C++ so cli isn’t out of the question for me. But .NET is my comfort zone, and I like the rapid tooling that PS offers.
I have multiple reasons to dig into Python so really I just need to get on with it.
Python is always something I intend to learn but never get around to. Does it natively handle GUI for process tooling or does it require a third party? What makes PowerShell so useful to me is the native ability to create visual applications without the need to compile. I can create tools for my company that launches right out of ConfigMgr Software Center and other technicians can contribute without needing a programming background.
At home I want to mess around with tooling for home services without having to resort to web development.
By far it’s the object pipeline. Having structured data makes it easy to automate workflows in a predictable way. With bash everything is a string, so everything has to be parsed. It’s tedious.
It took about a year of steady use before I came to enjoy the syntax. It shines in a production environment with other cooks in the kitchen. I never got into the C style, I like my code human readable at a glance. It’s fine if everyone’s a sage but we have a team with a mixture of skill levels and for me PowerShell gets it right.
I did install it on one of my machines but haven’t dug in yet. I’m curious to see how much of my workflow will translate to Linux, yet at the same time I want to make sure I’m actually learning Linux and not using PS as a crutch.
Thanks for the reference. I’m looking at it and I think you’re right.
After learning PowerShell and then moving to Linux and having to learn bash…I don’t get this sentiment. PS is the shit. I can make full GUI applications and automate all kinds of workflows. Their use of objects makes it so easy to extract data and utilize it. Bash feels so much more primitive and clumsy by comparison. What am I missing here?
I loooove my openSUSE desktop. 11 was the last straw. No amount of AI is going to bring me back.
I HATE advertisements, and I paid for Pro but it seemed like they didn’t care. They want to milk me for everything I’m worth.
Good thing we have options. Linux has gotten so good, it’s better than Windows 11 while letting me decide how to use the OS. Big learning curve, but it’s smooth sailing when you get past it.
Our ticketing system has “untrained user” and “works as designed, not as expected” as options. Can’t fix the problem if you don’t know its nature.
I wanted to like it and I tried it over and over but I could not for the life of me get opensuse aeon or kalpa to work on my desktop when tumbleweed works perfectly. As soon as I installed the Nvidia drivers it went belly up and I couldn’t find help online.
I’m still new to Linux so I’ll accept that I need more experience but I can’t help but feel like a degree in computer science is a recommended prereq for this stuff since there just doesn’t seem to be solid documentation to get you through it.
That experience made me take microos off my server and put in proxmox instead.
That makes sense, thanks for clarifying. I agree, and what it boils down to is healthy communication and respect.
You seem to only be accounting for people who are like yourself. It’s hard to picture other people’s minds because we only have ours to go by, but it’s important to acknowledge that other minds work very differently from our own.
I was a habitual night owl in my twenties. Went to sleep at dawn and woke up around noon. I didn’t have sleep issues, I was always incredibly rested and full of energy.
Now I sleep at 10 and wake up around 6. I have less energy but I am now a morning person. I can easily get up at 4 for occasions.
You’re making judgements on others based on your own biased view, one that only sees it your way. That’s why you’re being down voted.
It’s like that episode of South Park where half the town supported the war in Iraq and the other half protested the war. Except in this case it’s all the same person.
Based on some articles I read I’m not too surprised. The guy sounded like he was getting looney.
What’s stride?
Trust me, coworkers have opinions on this.
It might be this article.
