CMD is a shell, homes.

This has been a trope since Linux existed.

"Linux doesn't work with my hardware*

"Well, just spend hundreds or thousands on new hardware so you can run this free OS!"

your friend might be talking about the steam controller

And the steam link. And the steam vr headset. Valve has a terrible record with regards to hardware.

What if I told you you can create and set a registry entry with a single line of powershell

That's ok too. If you're not comfortable in the cli you can switch to a more gui focused windows distro. Most of the same functionality is there.

Boss/teacher: Is your project ready to present yet?

Linux user, still tweaking colors and theme options in their DE after 4 years: Let me finish setting up my device!

And in response the normal level headed men were like "god it sucks they had to go through whatever negative experience made them feel that way" and the sad fragile weiner men were like "THATS SEXIST FUCK ALL FEMOIDS" and the bears were like "do I smell a new England cottontail? Imma eat that son of a bitch and take a nap"

No it isn't. NT was written from scratch, with no legacy DOS code. The last version of windows that was an "MS-DOS hybrid system" as you described was ME, 25 years ago.

it still makes use of absolutely braindead DOS design/features/limitations because of "backwards compatibility"

Like what? Aside from drive letters (which are being slowly sunset in favor of mounting to directories like *nix) I don't see a lot of legacy stuff from the 8 bit era

Linux has better backwards support for DOS

Via dosbox, which is also available for windows. I wouldn't call "exactly the same, using the same exact emulator" better.

No, I mean NT. Why would I use a pre-releaee name from 30 years ago?

Windows sets the hardware clock to local time, Linux sets it to UTC. It's possible to tell one to respect the others preference

Linux for life.

Then you're clearly not dual booting and this advice wasn't for you

It should change it back eventually if you didn't disable setting the clock from Microsofts ntp servers

I'll remember that the next time someone makes a post like "why did apt upgrade install the snap version of Firefox".

I really doubt they're wasting time astroturfing a Linux community on Lemmy. You're not going to convince hardcore devotees with a meme.

Does your bank have a Linux application? Of course not, you're using the website. So why not use the website on your phone?
