Ah, Windows has a built in emoji picker under Win+;.
@adi Hold on a minute, you use Windows? Somehow I thought you’re a hardcore OpenBSD guy. 🤔

@adi @movq That was my _thoughts_ exactly too! 🤣

@prologic @movq All my laptops broke down, this is a borrowed laptop and I rather not change OS. I usually work via SSH. https://mkws.sh is a OpenBSD machine. I'm not that hardcore. 😁
@prologic @movq All my laptops broke down, this is a borrowed laptop and I rather not change OS. I usually work via ssh. https://mkws.sh is an OpenBSD VPS hosted by http://openbsd.amsterdam/, I do most of my work there. I run another small Void Linux VPS. I'm not that hardcore. 😁

@prologic @movq @adi Void Linux is actually my main OS, good little distro though the repo mirrors can be a bit out of sync sometimes
@adi Void and OpenBSD are pretty hardcore, as operating systems go. I'm surprised you can tolerate Windows.

@mckinley I mostly run Windows Terminal and Chrome.

@mckinley Also, I believe Windows Subsystem for Linux is great. 😛

Void Linux is pretty nice. If I were to pick a new distro today, that’d be it. I’m just lazy and mostly happy with Arch, so I don’t switch. 🥴

@movq I migrated to Void from Arch.

@adi It just works and I have five machines running it. systemd (and all the stuff that comes with it, e.g. I don’t fully understand daemons like logind, but I’d like to) is sometimes a PITA, that I’d like to get rid of. This is getting worse, feels like I’m slowly losing control over my machines. But at the same time, Arch is an incredibly stable system and causes very, very little headaches. Zero fuckups in almost 13 years. So, I have little motivation to change anything … 🥴

@adi I want to understand how my system works as best as I can. The better my understanding, the more likely it is that I’m able to troubleshoot issues. systemd is a complex set of programs and that complexity sometimes makes it harder to know what’s going on. For example, we recently had an issue at work where systemd-hostnamed recently refused (ran into a timeout). This only happened while GRUB was creating initramfs files. I still haven’t been able to debug this issue. systemd *does* have advantages, but it also has a price tag. > >

@adi 😁 My laziness. Reading all of systemd’s source code, get to know the inner workings and all that? Meh, maybe tomorrow. > >

@adi Not quite sure what your end goal is. 😁 I *could* do all those things (replace Arch with Void or become a systemd expert). It’s just a matter of motivation. Arch works well (and certainly *well enough*), so I’d rather grab my bass and jam for a while than tweak my Linux box from 98% perfection to 99%. Or something like that.

@movq No goal at all. 😁Please post some jams then! 😛
