Autobahn is one. But that is only Germany.

Honytawk ,

Of course, but lets not add some sort of xenophobic rating in the mix.

Honytawk ,

You know someone purposely did that every single time just to keep the meme going

Nuclear waste is a much smaller problem than most people think. The waste is very little and can be stored underground for eons without much risk.

Yes it exist for a long time, but one kilo of uranium produces as much energy as 16 ton coal, and leaves behind 47 grams of nuclear waste.

Honytawk ,

I still prefer 47 grams of nuclear waste over 1950 Kg of coal pollution in the air.

That is for the same amount of energy.

Honytawk ,

That is what the screws are for.

Honytawk ,

Ah, so extra spit

Honytawk ,

Real Math used at work is only for the smart kids

Honytawk ,

You'd be surprised

Honytawk ,

Terminal or any command line is not user friendly.

It may be poweruser friendly, but that is only a sliver of users.

Honytawk ,

It not working on certain distros is yet an other point of pain for Linux

Honytawk ,

You tell em, you are either not grounded or you will not trust them for the rest of your life.

So you get grounded for 10 months and a therapist bill instead.

Honytawk ,

Yes it can!

Tiny11 is a stripped down custom build of Windows 11, which only requires 8 GB of storage and 2 GB of RAM.

Someone even got it to run on 200MB of RAM.

Honytawk ,

Can confirm.

Has great graphics as well as an amazing park builder. The skating itself has stayed exactly the same.

Honytawk ,

Same with Pootin and Netanyahu.

The world would be soo much more chill

Honytawk ,

Covid

Honytawk ,

Why waste such a good opportunity to use it though?

Honytawk ,

Every election is important, if they weren't why even hold an election?

Honytawk ,

Unlike us power users, many people like the web search.

Still the fact that this can be easily disabled with a single registry key is an advantage of Windows, not a detriment.

Honytawk ,

You can run a batch file too with your skull, although I do not recommend.

Honytawk ,

Deliberately obnoxious that can be disabled by a single registry edit?

Honytawk ,

It is nothing but opening regedit, going to the path described in the text, and adding a variable with a certain name and value.

It can even be done by a single powershell command line.

I'm starting to think Linux users like yourself aren't as technologically capable as you guys claim you are.

Honytawk ,

You mean easily accessible shortcut folder?

What is wrong with that?

Honytawk ,

Probably the reason as to why you aren't rich in the first place

Honytawk ,

So they cheaped out on what is supposed to be a premium brand, gotcha

Honytawk ,

Nah, then Google would have a monopoly and be subjected to extra rules and regulations.

They rather fund a competitor than do that.

Honytawk ,

For starters, you don't need to enter a single command to get a fully functioning system.

Honytawk ,

The amount of times where I encounter an app being "too old" to run on MacOS, for the sole reason because Apple said so are too numerous.

Nothing you can do then. If Apple says you can't then you can't.

At least on Windows it lets you fuck up and do things that Microsoft didn't intend to.

Honytawk ,

Debian is quite mid, I agree

Honytawk ,

To be honest, it is the IT teams fault if they allow their users to click past those warnings with admin rights themselves.

Now imagine those 80% of stupid Windows users on Linux.

Honytawk ,

That setting is one of the first things I change on any Windows I get my hands on.

It is all around dumb.

Honytawk ,

We aren't forcing them.

But we are allowed to have the opinion that we would enjoy the game more if we could choose ourselves how difficult we want it to be.

Honytawk ,

You can see it is an American post because there is no option of "total ban"

Honytawk ,

I've seen a fox use Chrome, so I guess so

Honytawk ,

Yes, and it has one toggle to disable them all

Honytawk ,

Worse? You mean that one setting about ads that everybody already had disabled in the first place?

I can live with it.

Honytawk ,

Windows has forced updates because people like your parents would otherwise never update and then still blame Microsoft for their computer breaking because of bugs.

Honytawk ,

Slander would mean it was misinformation

Honytawk ,

Literally the top comment at this time from KubeRoot:

I will happily recommend Arch to a new user… If they’re interested in learning Linux, and not dependent on it working reliably, while warning them of the risks and telling them about the advantages.

Then a bit lower by mac:

I think Arch is a good distro to learn for new users who are interested in tech, it gives an amazing example of good documentation and teaches you a lot about how UNIX-Like filesystems work.

Both are heavily upvoted

Honytawk ,

There are some updates that broke stuff on Windows. Like that one which broke all those HP printers for a lot of people.

The thing is that it is kind of impressive how little it happens seeing the sheer amount of users. And normally Microsoft is quite quick to release an other update to fix it.

Honytawk ,

So? You can install Windows with 0 commands

Doesn't mean it is setup how you like it

Honytawk ,

God I hate those kinds of players.

Always whining about how their build is bad against a different build, but not realising their build also has advantages over other builds.

I used to play Robocraft, and the people sporting plasma cannons were whining constantly about how their weapon is the only one that requires skill since the other weapons were hitscan. Not understanding that their weapon was the only one with AoE damage.

Honytawk ,

You're talking about Mac, if something is wrong there like an app being too old, you can't do anything about it.

Windows allows you to mold it to make it do what you like, but usually the default setup is pretty decent. Even if it can be the manufacturers fault, you can still install older versions of drivers, install open source third party drivers, or compile your own if you are so inclined.

The database that comes with Windows is to make it easy for the user, so they don't have to go around searching for drivers when they attach a new device. Most of the time it works flawless.

Honytawk ,

“nothing can be done unless microsoft actually decides to fix it”

That is just a straight up lie

I haven't encountered a SINGLE issue like that in all my years of IT in heavy Microsoft environments. You can always find a solution, albeit having some small caveats like you have in every open source software. Every single issue is documented somewhere since 80% of desktops run it. The community is just so much bigger. You can even straight up contact Microsoft directly if you encounter anything that hasn't been encountered before.

Don't blame your lack of Google fu on Microsoft just because you don't like their design philosophy.

Honytawk ,

The moment a new user needs to use command line, they are out.

It isn't mind boggling at all.

Honytawk ,

That is the quirk of being splintered in so many different distros, and all the users recommending a different one.

It is by far the biggest reason why Linux hasn't gone mainstream.

New users are having to deep dive into all the different possibilities just to find the one that does what they want, before they can even start the process of installation.

Compare that to Windows: just install the latest one

Or Mac: you are forced to use the latest one.
