ms10398697yLol
I would go for atom and vim is already installed B)
I have been a atom user from long time -
ms10398697yMaybe I just don't like Microsoft "stuff"
And I work mostly on Nodejs or ReactJs and I am used to the feel of atom
But yes I would give VS code a try :) let's see how it feels -
ms10398697y@Lahsen2016 I use webstorm too
But I think it's too heavy so I use atom most of the times -
emyu105787yIs there any advantage to an XPS over other models from Dell except for the looks and build quality? Just curious and I myself also want an XPS.
-
ms10398697yAbout XPS I would say I didn't wanted to take a Mac
HP doesn't have the build quality
Lenovo has driver issues for Linux
So Dell was my obvious and Fav choice
And yes it has the best display and a splendid battery life
You would not like it's web cam position btw
Rest it's awesome to use I think if you are not a Mac fan -
ms10398697y@VTCoder Ubuntu Gnome 17.10 with customised icon pack theme terminal ..
Everything has been played upon :P -
gitlog57637y@ms10398 well nice....
BTW beware I found quite a few bugs on Ubuntu.... Hope wouldn't make your system unbootable too. And also, hope they are solved. -
emyu105787y@ms10398 how about the keyboard? My Inspiron needs a hammer punch to get the character.
-
ms10398697y@VTCoder I checked them out
It was corrupting some bios but the bug is solved
And it was specific for some bios which Lenovo used and rare ho laptops and yeah I am saved from that -
ms10398697y@emyu10 these are chiclet but the feel is nice
I like that sort of feel when key rebounds back
Yeah but don't worry this one doesn't needs hammer -
ms10398697y@VTCoder yeah I am thinking to make one will make soon just as I finish I was on something maybe will have it till morning
-
emyu105787y@ms10398 I am really considering to replace my 4 years old Inspiron this year. But 13 is too small for me.
-
gitlog57637y@ms10398 not only for bios, but few apps.... Also, when I installed, the iso as default didn't even have ifconfig installed...
It was a heck of things altogether and guess who tried to use Nvidia??!!!
Finally am back to 16.04.
BTW due to 17.10 now my Nvidia 940mx is seen not as a VGA controller but a 3D controller which I still haven't checked if it affected its usage in windows too(dual booted) -
