Configuring my new PC
- SSH: I have to download something for that?
- Git: not a batch file or directory
- Package manager: what are those
- Cmd: what the actual fuck -
leanrob36816yYeah. That’s standard for a Mac. Gotta have those extended Xcode comments line tools to have things like gcc etc.
It’s the first thing I do with a new Mac because it takes a while and is inevitable. -
stackiox5716yIt never need complete Xcode for git,
Just setup brew and everything is easy as hell -
gvnix19396yYou don't need full xcode.
Type in the terminal -
xcode-select --install
It will install only the command line tools. -
gvnix19396y@zacg yep. Git has its own installer as well. But then you will miss out on GCC or make.

@Condor depends, the difference from apple and linux users that say: you must use this, is the best ... I say: windows is the best for me, according to what I need (and if you're, you need something similar to me, you should consider it)
-
Condor328916y@dontbeevil As I've mentioned earlier, Windows 10 is currently my main workstation, mainly thanks to the shafting from Nvidia. And considering how much WSL has matured so far, I can't say that the experience is bad.. other than the fact that this machine constantly phones home to Microsoft despite my explicit disapproval through registry edits and disabling the Telemetry service. All of that doesn't prevent me from chewing on how WSL still can't replace native Linux hosts though, or how I really didn't want this OS on my PC to begin with and hate being forced to use a particular OS :)
Keep in mind that I don't want to change the mind of a fanboy, just want to justify why I dislike this OS despite the fact that I'm using it. -
@Condor you can't change my mind not because I'm a fanboy, in fact I didn't say you must use windows and you must admit that it's the best, but because I'm a GUI guy, and I use mainly c#, .net, azure, windows services, windows server, visual studio and sw that's on windows ... So I don't need and I don't want to use bash
-
Condor328916y@dontbeevil … Windows Server even.. Fuck you. Abomination of shitadmin.
Sorry dude, there's only very few things that tick me off more. You can be a fanboy, but at the server side.. no. This is why we Linux sysadmins still have to deal with JMRP, SNDS, Outlook layout and whatnot. I fucking hate it. And if you fuel it, I fucking hate you. -
c3ypt1c99356y@peacWhis but yeah, also money is a problem, but surely it'd be cheaper than most macs with the same specs.
-
@Condor if you work with .net and windows services, guess which server os run your code??? but I'm working with this for years, 4 different companies, many users, website, api, services, vm...not asingle issue but please believe whatever you want.
p.s.
I'm not the sys admin -
it's funny if someone says: i use windows because of this, this, this and this reason is a fanboy, if someone says no that's shit, you must use this, is fine
-
You don't need to instal xcode, just the toolkit:
$ xcode-select --install
thank me later
