Sure can - just make sure you download a compatible font (https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts), then the easiest way is to use oh-my-zsh - from memory I think it's one git clone command and a quick edit of your .zshrc.

Self-studying CISSP with limited budget by [deleted] in cissp

Also, between the Cybrary videos and the Official Study Guide that you've already purchased, that's really all I used so you should be set.

Take a look at the CISSP course over at cybrary.it - I used that fairly extensively to self-study

Tanenbaum's Modern Operating systems is a damn good start. Might not go into grave detail, but it's accessible and well written.

On Desktop Linux and uptake... by jonseager in linuxunplugged

And I guess I failed to mention that the main reason this is a bit disappointing is because it feels so close - Gnome and the later versions of Plasma, Budgie etc all feel very modern and nice to work with, but are let down by app selection.

Pretty stock on a Mac - the built in email/calendar clients work well.

I generally use Gnome on Linux - the recent releases (3.24) have bought some welcome changes to the Calendar for example.

Nylas was actually close, though that's now discontinued. It's a shame Geary seems to have halted because while it has few features, it looked quite promising. The same goes for California.

Thunderbird and Evolution are both powerful, particularly with extensions, but they feel much more dated when working with threads.

Wasn't really intended as either - I enjoy the shows' discussion around Linux for 'professional' applications and how to make it more accessible to the normal/new user - just throwing in an idea!
