Pic related is how I feel whenever I see windows users doing anything. I mean, they think what they're doing is fast, but wean them onto UNIX and they'll never leave
>>typically assosciated with people who have a life and have shit to do If I had to use windows for work my productivity would drop 10fold. I use unix because I have shit to do, and want the OS to get out of my fucking way >requires almost no effort from the user, just sit back and enjoy the flight Just sit back and wait 10 seconds between every user interaction, fun!
>requires significant effort for any long journey As in I type one command and minimize the terminal then work on something else? And it'll still finish executing faster than on windows >switching 10,000 users over and losing... When people work for me they can use whatever fucking OS they want. If they don't get work done, I fire them. I've never fired someone who's walked in while running linux. I've fired some of the fastest windows users ever, because they were still slower than the slowest linux users
Jacob Allen
its strange that the same board that memes distros that are garbage specifically because they make life hard is the same board that calls linux a bicycle for the fact that it makes life hard. you dont have to run a pile of shit, but if you do please dont characterize the entire os as a piece of shit because of your own stupidity

So, with Windows one gets some asshole to touch your balls when you're boarding and landing. And despite being state of the art, it's gonna nosedive and kill you because pajeets made it? A bike is fine.

Kubuntu 18.04 LTS Superior desktop experience to Win 10 Doesn't need any configuring for regular use Everything works as you need it to Doesn't need to be maintained other than clicking on shit. ftfy.
Eli Rogers
>>only "bad" points about windows are things the user can quite easily disable or change No, you still can't see how unshakably fucking clunky windows is. The fact that you see no usability difference in my description between windows and UNIX shows that you don't fucking understand the fundamentals here. >I doubt you've fired people from your job at McDonalds. Great argument. Sure has convinced me how smooth and easy Windows 10™ is for users. Fuck, just do vid related in windows. Show me how much easier it is than UNIX.
Linux isn't Arch. Some people don't enjoy endlessly fucking around with configs just to maintain a workspace I know some people actually DO enjoy that, and I'm grateful for them, as they're the guys who maintain the distros I use. However, I want them to be doing it, not me, the user, as I just want my shit to fucking work. Stop this meme of "All linux users spend hours a day configuring their shit" Every industrial and commercial application that uses linux does so precisely because a properly set up system requires ZERO fucking maintenance. Sure, a web server running ON linux might need the occasional touch up, but the operating system itself running under everything will be like a slab of granite, never going bad or needing work. If it where any other way, linux wouldn't have near 100% industrial market share, something else that didn't need fucking spoon feeding to stop it from shitting itself everywhere would.

Windows is about as frustrating as airline travel, yes.
Sebastian White
So you're saying that Windows is like being a man in a straight jacket in a mental hospital, and that Linux is like being a free man (with all the risks that come with it)?
I guess I can live with that comparison.

Linux is much faster and comfier for me. doesn't sound like a bicycle. Harder to control but faster. Seems like more of a plane to me in this analogy
nigger, youtube-dl is literally on windows and can be run from the command line, i use it almost daily also, unironically making a "h-heh no response" reply is incredibly sad
Evan Stewart
>people still care about the underlying OS MS is in the process of merging the Ubuntu userland into Windows, while WINE developers are basically doing the same thing with Linux. It just doesn't fucking matter anymore except for in edge cases. Even shit like container orchestration is a done deal, with Kubernetes running on top of whatever being the thing of choice, unless you really need some kind of .net shit that you can't get from a container running .net core or mono, in which case you can go with Service Fabric. And you can probably abstract that with Terraform by now. So who the fuck cares.
Landon Allen
Weened off or weened on? Truthfully this is the sad truth of using Linux. It's a curse as much as it is a blessing. I have a shitter PC from 2004 running as my main machine because Linux is fast enough that even some old add hardware can still be responsive/useable. But knowing that things could be this good everywhere just make it hurt that much more knowing that they're not. The vast majority of computers run on Windows, and you can bet money that sooner or later you're going to have to use Windows. Otherwise you end up like old CS profs who can't into modern interfaces and struggle to even get the browser to go full-screen.
Isaac Moore
This. I don't even think about maintainence because I just have shit set up and I never get random forced updates that break my shit. If anything Linux requires considerably less work to keep operational than does Windows.
I think what I realize I hate more than Windows though, really stems from forced updates. As someone who primarily uses my computer as a work device/shitposting station, I don't need or want to be part of any "beta features studies" or any telemetry garbage. I want my PC to turn on, help me do some work, and then allow me to shitpost for a few hours. The more likely it is that something is going to break all my shit randomly makes me infinitely less likely to use it.
I wouldn't want to use a plane for everyday travel. But it is fine if I want to go have fun with some friends. I guess the analogy fits.

Well you can probably have that in Windows too, you just need to download an exe for FreeShortcuts2020 from Dmitry and let it run every time your reboot so it can read every keypress.

>You just need to download from this third party website. This is a massive upside to linux. Windows you have to download a bunch of no cost software without really knowing what else it's doing, not to mention they usually lock good stuff behind a paywall. With linux everything is in repositories and is safe and gets updates pushed out to it, whereas windows you have to go through and update all of your applications independently.
