Fuck you Boeing. You fuckers have stacked cash hand over fist for fucking decades milking the fucking government and the American people like goddamn cattle. The endless growth has to end. The endless greed has got to end.
Thank you. That's some real, usable information. You and the others who have replied have really been great. In the past I've encountered so much elitism and dismissiveness when I have tried to wind myself up for the switch. It's nice to find some inclusive helpful folks for a change.
Writing music and making files for my 3d printer is most of what I do with a computer anymore. What I'm not trying to do is make a separate hobby of OS trialing. I'm worried I won't be able to find drivers for my audio interface, hell I'm running it on an old Win7 driver in Win10 now. Payday is Friday, and I will be ordering a second SSD to quarantine this experiment on. For now I read and pester random folks on the Internet for opinions. I appreciate your suggestions, for sure.
I'm about to jump ship to Linux. I have been a Windows user since it first came out. I was DOS savvy before that, but Microsoft has just been getting worse and worse. They have never made a web browser that is worth a teaspoon of salt being high on the list of reasons they suck. Buuuuut, it's what all the software runs on. Now, though, they have gotten to be such bullies about forced updates and more that I am done. I'm not gonna lie, it's a little intimidating to have to start all over again, especially since Linux expects you to be very hands on with everything and I have let a looooot of my savvy slip by the wayside, but I feel like I've been forced at this point.
So, I have only ever known Windows, but am becoming more and more Linux curious. I see all these different distros you guys talk about and I have to ask, do all the distros run any of the available software or would I have to try to try to find one that will run what I'm interested in running? If so which distro will run the available music production software? I'm sick of microshaft. Help a brother out?
He would have to beat those charges, all felonies so no more gun rights, to get them back. If he is acquitted or found not guilty his weapons should not be kept from him, but with this he would still have to wait that year.
I can only offer immoral support.
