Dotfiles are files whose name starts with a dot. Configuration files are called dotfiles because they used to start like that and litter your home directory. These days configuration files tend to live under the .config folder. The name has stuck though.

Yeah I know. You'd think it would be bang up to date, but that wasn't the case. I think it has been updated now though.

I used to distro hop all the time until I settled on Tumbleweed. I used that for eight years until Suse bared their corporate teeth and I got fed up with being two generations behind on the Nvidia drivers. I've been using EndeavourOS for almost a year and don't see me moving any time soon.

That's not true anymore, there's distros like Alpine which are not built using gnu tools.

How else are they going to get you to buy a support contract. If it was easy, you wouldn't need it.

Nobody expects bash to be remotely sane!

I love Eclipse for Java and QtCreator for C++/Qt. Eclipses auto-complete switched between psychic and psychotic at times but its integration with tools such as git and gradle is second to none. I never drunk the Jetbrains koolaid.

Have a look at this Udemy course, it teaches the HTML coding and website design. They have a sale on the moment too.

The EU must be doing something right.
