Been a Linux user for more than a decade, but work doesn't do Linux :( I even brought my laptop in to show them that everything works fine (AD and all), but they didn't go for it.
Their spyware probably doesn't work on Linux.
They use datto I think as their remote monitoring, and it works on Win, Mac, and Linux. Good guess, though!
Like the type software that sends a report if you don't use the mouse or the keyboard for 30 seconds? Remember to setup something like autohotkey for when you want to take a gaming break 😅
LMAOOO
I just started using Linux at work without telling anyone. On month 2 now and no one has noticed yet. They keep asking how I do all the fancy kde effects on my lappy and to do it to their windows machine. I just say "Sorry it's a hacked Mac" with an Acer logo on the back lol.
Reminds me of this classic:
You can rice kde like windows 10/11 or anything even like macos there are github pages and youtube videos available. Did you riced it like macos are you talking about that?
No, it's nothing like anything, I have 3 bars and just the accent color feature from kde. A clean desktop. But none of them own a Mac or have any technological knowledge, so they just believe it.
So why do you tell them it's a Mac rather than just telling them the truth? Do you think its somehow shameful to use Linux or something?
Well for one, they don't know about it, and if they don't know about it, to them it's probably some experimental piece of tech. And there's nothing good that'll come out of explaining it to them, it's a bother really.
Consider ricing it its really fun and post it here !unixporn@lemmy.ml
Yeah
