This reminds me of how my manager cringed when I made an official internal document that needed to be shared with clients using the shizuku version of crystal.

I dunno, I'd be weirded out if someone used a non anime skinned version of crystal. If this makes you cringe I feel like maybe not cut out for tech sector.

You need to remember that the technical people may not have an issue with it, but the bean counters tend to be more stuffy and upright about shit. And a lot of clients are especially up tight in my experience. Something about paying you money and expecting standard business responses.

I wouldn't give a shit if I saw that, but I absolutely would not send that up the chain if a junior sent me that screenshot (or I'd crop it down to the most useful info. Last thing I want to do is listen to some asshole c-level complain at me for 20 minutes about professionalism.

You're probably more senior than this dev.

I'd be weirded out they are running Windows. I no longer trust the technical opinion of anyone that runs that joke of an OS.

Ah yes, because people always have a choice. There's no way anyone competent would work at a larger company issuing devices with the company standard system running proprietary software that only functions on that system.

I mean, if your company forces it then you don't have an option. My company uses Windows so I have to use it for work and that's exactly how I know it's a joke of an OS. All my personal devices run linux.

We've got an edgelord here folks.

Lmao, are you upset by my statements? I must have pressed a button, huh? Sorry to hear you feel insecure about running Windows. Just accept being tech illiterate, it's okay.

Maybe when you get a job you'll understand that you can't always choose your tech stack. Keep thinking you're a badass because you run Linux on your PC to play steam games and I'll keep writing software, that has real world value, on my work computer running Windows.

This is the normie view, they just can't be bothered doing anything about it

I just recently found CrystalMark and was so confused about the downloads. If there was only anime girl skins I would have looked elsewhere, despite it being highly recommended lol. Can't send that to our CEO and demand we change hypervisor throughout our company...

I remember thinking it was really pretty and added some life to the dull corpo experience.

It ended up working in our favour, our clients were weebs like me.

Am I into this stuff at all, no

Is that freaking hilarious? Yes

Ahahahaha

I respect the dev, hiyohiyo, so much for this. He gave us something so useful, and he likes these characters, and he's not ashamed to make the skinned versions and put them up for download.
