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.

Sony Xperia 1 here, no app, neither.

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 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.

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.

 

In some European countries, the authorities are taking rigorous action against film and music piracy. Even downloading a single file can lead to fines, criminal proceedings and warnings.

In Switzerland, the legal situation is somewhat different. Here, you can download or stream certain content from the internet without paying for it under certain circumstances.
