We are fucked so why not be nice to each other
I wouldn’t call forced adoption an advantage. if anything they are taking away your freedom of choice by making it harder for you to switch, Because you have to remove the windows OS to switch. Why dont you get the option for linux at the store they are open source licensed so there is no issue distributing for free and giving people the option.
Lol right I saw a post about tiny11 iso I was like wtf thats way harder then just installing linux. Microsoft got people brainwashed
Yeah it is easier dude. with windows you have to install the new OS and then open edge and download Firefox then go download the program and check the boxes. With linux mint you install the OS. Idk sounds easier to me
At this point it would be easier to install a new user friendly linux distro…
Thats why he needed all that programming education to hack the shit outta those John Deere’s
The problem is linux is palatable there are many distros that are prebuilt to run like a Mac or windows they just have no way of marketing like Microsoft or apple.
that is because of the Open source licences. If they were able to sell their product do you think linux would be as far behind as it is today?
If those thousands of companies that use linux every single day had to pay a sub fee instead of measily (tax writeoff)donations do you think think XZ would have been hacked? If they could compete in the capitalist race would they be this far behind? IMO no and the open source license is a blessing and a curse
I agree both windows and Mac were once great viable OSes now they are just an advertising machine with apps
linux distros have been held back not by those companies specifically but with how licensing works its really fucked any sort of fulltime development
a company telling me that my perfectly working hardware is not viable for their new OS and not giving me an option with security updates is a boogieman IMO
IMO that’s not what is holding back Linux from adoption. there are great forums with great people and they happen to be in the distros for beginners. You can use your argument with any small enthusiasts groups and that was my point toxicness is not caused by Linux. I personally believe its windows and Mac forcing themselves on people. Have you ever been to a store to buy a computer and someone said hey would you like to try this free OS that installs and acts just like windows instead of buying windows for 100 bucks? Lol its just marketing.
This isn’t a Linux problem this is a society problem people just want to one up everyone In anyway they can and sometimes I dont think we do it consciencely
I think they have a version of neofetch on the chaotic aur repository that they use
Its not really Foss but Vencord is a nice discord client mod that blocks some analytic stuff and is super cute to boot!
Lol this is a weird one but I took a business philosophy course and “the 30000 foot view perspective” is something I started doing with everything it’s helped break me out of a singular model of thinking
Help me make fancy html for my personal website lol 😂
In the drop down menu go to edit profile or create profile something like that
Every game I’ve wanted to play has worked on Linux so far
Holy shit I almost spit my coffee all over my arch ThinkPad that’s funny
You do use arch… Ps I use arch
Come on if you aren’t doing at least 2 distros. You’re doing it wrong
Mk ultra turned out to be real
Yeah I understand the subject is rife with bs. On the other hand it’s annoying that we just immediately dismiss people who aren’t making conclusions about anything aliens or whatever, and are trying to actually investigate the real evidence in the phenomenon. Why immediately dismiss professional pilots testimony they are fucking trained to know what’s in the air if they say they don’t know what something is I’d investigate it. And you have people like Neil DeGrasse Tyson saying science is truth which doesn’t make any sense at all And if it turns out to be just secret government projects well I’m glad we figured it out
