1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    What does Ctrl shift I do (I'm not at my computer and I don't have any electron apps installed)

    opens chromiums dev tools

    Does it really have to? Vscode is built on top of it, I don't think it's ever opened chromium dev tools for the app (maybe I'm wrong?)

    Some apps can disable it, I think Discord does so people don't get tricked into pasting random scripts into the console

    That is true, though it's possible to re-activate them through a configuration file in discord. However, a developer can fully disable the tools if they wish

    For VSCode, click Help -> Toggle Developer Tools

    on raspbian, don't remember which version, ctrl shift I opens dev tools Edit vs code dev tools

    [–] cley_faye@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

    Open the dev tools in electron app that where so badly coded that they are not blocked as they should in the first place. In short, bad app developer makes bad apps, and people complain about the framework instead of complaining about the lazy dev.

    choosing to use electron is lazy
