You use terminal because you know what you are doing.

I use terminal because I want to feel like a hacker in a 90's movie.

We are not the same.

You use the terminal because you like the UX experience.

I use the terminal because the best IDE I can install on my work server is vim7.4.*

We are not the same.

*VHDL and SV. I can't install python for TerosHDL

No, and I would love to find a resource to help me bend UVM to my will. Alas, I'm in a niche of a niche on a currently niche platform. I'm not hopeful for years. The subreddit for FPGA is all I got right now.

@sincle354 I'm interested in this too, the closest community I know of is ece@lemmy.world which is for electrical & computer engineering in general but can be a good starting point for the digital design community.

People know what dropdown menus are called :O

EricAux@kbin.social · 8 pts · 3y

Yeah, my mom would say "Where's all the stuff" to refer to buttons, drop-down menus, etc.

PCChipsM922U@sh.itjust.works · 5 pts · 3y

Yeah, found the lack of knowledge of what their name is shocking as well.

Yes, I use PowerShell with garish colors. Yes, I have to Google every step. No,I don't understand the Microsoft docs.

xthexder@programming.dev · 11 pts · 3y (2 replies)

To be fair, I used to work there, and not even Microsoft understands their docs.

Legitimately relieved it's not just a me problem

Black background, yellow text. I can't work any other way.

ozoned@beehaw.org · 4 pts · 3y (1 reply)

Black background with GREEN text is the ONLY way you HEATHEN! We are now enemies! And we shall settle this like gentlemen!

TO THE GRID!

😁

57006@programming.dev · 2 pts · 3y

is that a TRON reference?

Zxmon@programming.dev · 1 pts · 3y

the true way is still Blue background yellow text, I still cannot even begin to comprehend how you could use another colorscheme

Terminal is even more impressive if used in full screen

Seraph089@sh.itjust.works · 8 pts · 3y (1 reply)

If you want impressive, you have 4-6 seperate terminal windows that take up the whole screen collectively. The laymen assume you're hacking the NSA or something if they see that.

That's so true as a Linux user in front of non-techies.

argv_minus_one@beehaw.org · 7 pts · 3y

Digestive_Biscuit@feddit.uk · 2 pts · 3y

I've lost count of the amount of times my terminal has been referenced as being the matrix. Hasn't happened much since WFH though.
