One thing I want to debate about this is I remember how expensive cable used to be. It was like 120 bucks. Maybe you got like a $70 package or $80 package where you had barely any channels. I ain't spending that much on streaming services!! I don't know if I'm an outlier but I got Three and that's about it. I pay around 40 bucks a month.

This is actually the first of probably many of these cases from this little incident

Npr Microsoft Hack

Why you don't like Wayland would be a more interesting post.

He has had this idea since his Paypal days.

Man is just stuck in the 90s when everything was Xtreme!

18 years of running linux on my computers because windows is insufferable in some way or form. Windows 11 Pro was actually fairly decent at first I even liked the UI despite its issues. Then updates broke and even digging into the cmd prompt tools couldn't fix it. Which is just insane to me as a company that is hoovering up my data cant figure out updates. I dont even care all that much about the privacy aspect if it just worked. Hell its why I use google services. But every version of windows I have used since XP has had some sort of fatal error that could only be fixed with a clean install. When that happens its my sign to go on a distro hop.

Dark patterns have also just become the norm in Windows and Mac OS. Honestly kind of sad because both OS's at one point in time had there high points where they felt like they were built for the user. Now they are glorified billboards that run apps.

I only print docs and pictures. But in my opinion printing on Linux is largely better than Windows. It just works most of the time. And if there is an issue the solution is generally restarting the job.

This! I literally give Windows a chance every version. I even kind of liked Windows 11 this go around.

But something always breaks and no matter how much I trouble shoot the fix is to reinstall windows. To which I say screw that and start distro hoping.

11 with 2022 gaming laptop just stopped updating. The only non native app I had on the thing was STEAM! I have been using Linux for 18 years because it's the only way I know how to fix Windows.

I would uninstall and use the flatpak. Way easier than solving dependencie issues

Hey we all have our unix philosophy cringe phase. Just let the kid play he will grow up one day.

Went from lurker to user today actually. It wasn't even the apps it was just the awful attitude towards users.

Just started Deadline. Pretty fun rouge like FPS that runs well in proton.

MCC and Risk of Rain 2 are my co too games lately. Both have a ton of things to do and are easy to put down when it's time to pass out.

Endless Os is solid! It's my go to for ppl who don't know jack about Linux. But it's also just a really well put together distro.

My favorite feature by far is just Auto updates. It's the only distro I've used where Auto updates just work. Everything stays updated zero tweaks required no interruption of workflow. It's honestly so good at it that I forget that it even updates. And that doesn't just go for the OS that goes for apps too.

It also runs well on just about any hardware I've ever put it on. I just put it on my buddy's Toshiba satellite laptop that's rocking an I5 4200u and a 5400rpm hard drive. Takes a second to boot but doesn't miss a beat once it's up and running.

It is very flatpak centric but if you're looking for that Chrome OS feel it's about as close as you can get.

Might try it! I am running it on linux through proton. Which in its default mode it preforms pretty dang good. Its really amazing how optimized the indie games coming out now are vs what we get with triple A

Yep it's like if Doom and Hades had a kid that is going through a cyberpunk phase.

It also looks really good!

I didn't say it was hard just said flatpaks are easy. Also why don't you post a solution?
