Looking for a Linux alternative to WinToUSB.

WinToUSB makes an actual Windows 10, not just a Windows 10 installer. If there is not an alternative, can I just install Windows on a vm and copy the files to a USB?

Snippets & Code repository with collaboration

Maybe it's not the most suitable sub for this question as it's more software related, but since it must be used in a Linux environment i'm asking here.

​

I'm looking for a tool to share code snippets, files and whole applications with a team of developers.

​

So far [Cacher](http://cacher.io) is the most suitable tool for what i'm seeking to achieve, but since the team & collaboration capabilities are based on a monthly subnoscription i'm looking for something else.

Gists and a collaborated git repo are alright, but a bit less convenient and intuitive (compared to Cacher).

​

Is there any other service/tool for code sharing which has at least the basic collaboration capabilities with no extra charge and subnoscription fees?

Do you think there are more programmers working on MacOS or working on GNU/Linux?

My friend and I were talking about this the other day, and I'm curious on what this sub thinks. Do you think there are more people actively working on MacOS or GNU/Linux operating systems? We were only considering programmers working on the operating systems themselves (kernel, apis, and lower level stuff) and their user interface, so this includes the people working on the art direction and design for MacOS, as well as people who do the same for Gnome, Kde, etc. Applications which might come packaged on installation are not included, Libre Office, GarageBand, web browsers, stuff like that. What do you folks think?

Hey everyone, so I made an app that I thought you guys might like. It basically lets you save Linux related videos, websites/articles, social media content, etc. from literally any app on your phone. It called Figgle.

So the noscript says it all. The app can save Linux related videos, websites/articles, social media content and in addition to that, you can save photos, websites, social media posts, notes, music, etc. from any app and store it in one place.

Does anyone have experience or a guide for migrating from Windows to Linux?

I would like to move from windows to linux. Windows is on a separate SSD from all of my other files. I would like to avoid redownloading everything if possible.

best practices for contributing to currently in use tools?

I'm trying to get into contributing to open source development. I've forked a couple repos to my personal github and wrote this [noscript](https://github.com/skewballfox/arch-install-noscripts/blob/master/automata/git_synced) that I will soon turn write a service for to make sure that my fork is kept up to date with the master branch. I've forked mycroft, a couple of packages related to xi-editor, and openmw. I'm thinking about forking OpenMined(I really want to get into automated self tracking and think this would be a good client-side project for something using federated learning). Thing is I plan on actually using these packages on my machine, but also want to keep my system stable. Up until this point I've only wrote noscripts and services, and left larger programs to the package manager, so my knowledge of package management has been limited to tools like makepkg. I've also never really played around with software testing or profiling, outside of using timers and manually testing edge cases.

What are some good practices to adopt in order to both use and improve the tools like I would any other terminal program, while keeping my package up to date with devel, not overwriting my personal changes(ie git stash),automating this process(with something like buildbot) and avoiding bricking my build? it's totally okay if the package gets bricked, I mainly just want to make sure that the system doesn't go with it.

Linux college or tech courses?

Interested in going back to school to learn more about linux and hopefully make it a career choice. Is there a data base that can narrow done courses near me? I'd really like to do it hands on in a school setting. Would appreciate some input, also I live in Central Pennsylvania.

Thank you.

[Unpopular opinion] Adwaita isn't that bad.

We all have done it. We installed themes and icon packs and changed the looks of our GNOME desktop. They have refreshed the looks, not buy much, but enough for me not to care about changing the Gtk theme. In the end, Adwaita is not that ugly.
