I used Linux daily for 20 years.

Linux may be ready, the mainstream software isn't.

Are you working with Adobe? Good luck.

Want to play some multiplayer game? Good luck, again.

Oh yes, chrome and Firefox run fine. Just disregard LibreOffice, it's disappointing.

Unfortunately not.

I say that not because I hate Russians.

I hate the Russians that fly to Maldives and act like they own the place and are constantly rude to Maldivians, other tourists and leave trash behind when they leave.

Despot of carpatia?

I wonder if America gets worse manufacturing, all the people complaining Logitech mice failing after a couple of years. While mine I have to kill them myself or gift around because they last so much and I like the new cool G series mouse.

The thing is that 1GB of a "driver" contains about 20 MB of actual mouse driver, but also all the drivers for all their other mice, keyboards, webcams, joysticks, driving wheels, loudspeakers (but why?), headphones, etc.

I like they consolidated their Logi Hub software, but it's HEAVY.

Sony Xperia 1 here, no app, neither.

If you had a Sound Blaster 16, you had an extra IDE port on the board, which DOS couldn't see and you had to load special drivers to use them. Usually it was used for the CD-ROM.

I wish.

You're changing the environment to favour your fight. I agree with you, 90% of the times in servers space, Linux works better.

I don't want to argue with you, because your thoughts are right and you raise valid good points when interacting on social media.

But just to add something, I didn't say he's a bad person, I have no clue about that, I did say he's a bad IT person. In other words, not qualifies for the role, if I can have an opinion on that.

I support the right tool for the right task, I'm not a company cultist, I'm sure Apple is as fucked up as Microsoft, I believe you. But I don't care.

I have 20 years of experience in Linux. I'm not the average "I'm using Arch btw" Linux user. I managed several services at work with Linux and have a homelab at home.

If I wasn't a PC gamer, Windows was gone from my house. That's how I prefer Linux.

Having said that, your statement is objectively wrong.

No offence but you're a bad it person if you really think like that.

I love to suggest Apple products to my relatives, because they're too dumb and I don't have to give technical support, lol.

I'm a windows and Linux user. I received for free an old 2015 MacBook air. I absolutely love it (after installing brew).

With how infuriating Windows 11 is, I'm slowly starting to understand why people prefer to pay more for a Mac.

I get the joke, but lots of people, me included, start to understand why people pay so much for a Mac. It's not the hardware, it's not having to deal with Windows.

You know that tool called stud finder that you use in America if you ever think about hanging a picture on the wall, or a TV, otherwise you risk your wall falling down with anything attached to it?

Never seen a stud finder in Europe.

The amount of energy wasted in America for all the houses with AC they have, could have propelled an entire society to Mars.

Time 2 years top, there will be an AI that converts perfectly COBOL into JavaScript.

Damn, should I load the mouse driver or the CD-ROM driver? If I load both, I can't run strike commander!

With dos 5.x I started creating some fancy auroexec menu at boot that switches between several configurations depending if I wanted to run windows, need a lot of xms or a big chunk of Ems (640k was NOT enough for everything).

It was somehow fun.

But at least, if something is not working, it was entirely your fault. Now? It's probably windows update who fucked up something you desperately need right now.
