@phoneboy When I did it, it was next to impossible to separate work from home. There was no delineation. I practically work 24/7 now but it is different as I still have that psychological thing of a formal office. If I ever do the full-time from home thing again, I will probably build a tiny house/office, land permitting. At least have that boundary.

Now that I have a decent X11 server running on the laptop, I can remotely run remote X11 apps on customer servers with full DPS scaling and no need for firing up a VM to do this.
@matigo Oh I totally get that. Remember, I'm the fool who actually made and maintained a distro for years. One of the former, dyed-in-the-wool fanatics.
I just marvel at what the Nadella era has brought the company to. They did what IBM had to do. Transition to services. But they've done it in such a wild way.
Presently configuring my laptop to plug into displays at the office and the TV at home.
Experiencing the absolute insanity of WLS. Running VS Code from Ubuntu. Ubuntu that runs concurrently with Windows. From a tabbed terminal that Microsoft wrote. All of this madness is open source.
I guess it took nearly destroying their ecosystem with Windows 8 for this to happen.
@matigo Here, we used QT. I took one look at the C++ wrappers for Gnome, years ago, and said, "NOPE!"
@matigo I still have a Windows Mobile phone around here somewhere that we had the .NET Mobile Framework on. That is one framework I am glad I will never see again.
@matigo Did you ever think you'd see the day where a Microsoft technology would become cross-platform?
