Not with the same programming language

That is complete and utter bull, you do not know what you are talking about.

 

There is absolutely nothing stopping you from writing .NET code in an editor on a Linux machine. These days you can even run .NET on Linux with mono.

I deal in shitposts and shitpost accessories.

In all seriousness though, how?!? First of all, I don't understand how you could get the privacy needed, and second of all, at that young of an age? I'm a year older and have never had a gf, though to be fair that is mostly probably because of private school and me being a math and science type of kid. Honestly I don't expect myself to until around 22 or so :P.

14 year olds and their problems. smh /s

thats just knowing the OS usiually

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

I know how to edit a text document, thank you. And does that even work under MacOS (or OS X as I prefer)?

Yup, Linux and MacOS are both based on UNIX so a lot of the commands are extremely similar or the same.

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

 

Do this:

And make sure you do it by hitting the quote button at the bottom left of my post, and not the one inside the editor!

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

A review for a firepro...it had 4 display ports...

The worst part is someone found this helpful...

 

I think my brain hurts from them calling this "special HDMI."

My parents just don't seem to understand that the internet speed affects how fast things load and is the reason why things buffer.

 

Our conversations usually go something like this:

 

Mom: Why is this video buffering, I think we need to change the RAM configuration... or maybe you changed something?

 

Me: No mom! Think of the internet like a pipe. The bigger the pipe, the faster information can travel through it. Our "pipe" is only 6.5Mps "wide". This means that pretty much anything that isn't running on a high performance server (like Netflix or YouTube) is going to have a little bit of buffering. Especially when there are other people on the network.

 

Mom: But there must be some way to fix it... ?

 

Me: Yes, there is, you would need to widen the "pipe" by increasing our download speed. Unfortunately we cannot increase our download speeds any further because we live in an area where there are no ISP's that can provide a faster speed. So in short, if you want things to buffer faster... we need to move.

 

So what happens after this conversation?

They still don't get it.
