          I’m on 10 until it stops being supported, then I’m learning my ass Linux. I know a tiny bit (I have a PiHole and a little OMV server) but I’m reddy to switch to full time desktop Linux once it has a liiiittle bit more game support.

          I love you Steamdeck, even though I have no use for one, it’s making games work so much more and better on Linux.

            grass is never greener, just a different shade. There is always pros and cons and Linux is not exempt from this

              I use both for 6-8 hours a day each.

              The grass is greener on the Linux side when it comes to inexplicable bullshit like this.

                Ive never even heard of something like this happening prior to now, bordering on calling this post bullshit.

                How a headsets power influx could somehow accurately pick and cycle through a specific set of icons consistently is baffling and, in my opinion, points more towards hardware failure than OS failure. But we’ll never know because there’s a close to 0% chance OP updates :(

                  windows pulls this kind of bs all the time, lets do some comparisons between my primary linux install and my school windows install, both installed on the same relatively modern hardware and almost identical nvme ssds. linux: i turn on my computer and it works for everything i need, the time is correct, my gpu driver is included in the kernel so its always updated, no popups or unwanted notifications. ever. windows: considerably longer boot time, have to click through several menus begging me to sign into microsoft and upgrade to windows 11 or my pc will get hacked. then my monitors layout and refresh rate will be messed up every time because windows uodate “updated the gpu driver” to an older version and now it wont load so i have to spend 5 minutes unfucking that, then the time is consistently always off. ive tried endless tutorials/uodates to try and fix it and is just wont work. have to manually disable ntp and set the time so that autocads shitty drm will let me do my homework while getting spammed with popups about how i need to update my computer and install razer software for my keyboard and how microsoft 365 is the best software in the entire universe.

                  and thats just the start of all the random shit this os pulls on a daily basis

                Yeah. The whole Windows v. Linux thing is a prime example of actually greener grass on the Linux side. One reason the Linux community is so vocal lately is because it’s maddening how many people just won’t fucking try it.

                It did not use to be this good, especially for gaming. But it is now, and it’s time to accept that progress happened.

                And especially so, considering Windows seems to be moving in the wrong direction…

                  The Linux community can be very aggressive at times to the point of being insufferable, which is putting people off trying Linux.

            from my experience, Linux and Windows aren’t that different. they both have their janks and pros

          You’re crazy if you think microsoft would rewrite windows. No, they’d keep the old windows ALONGSIDE the new, already bloated windows stuff. Because updates that break stuff are bad.

            They’re literally rewriting core libraries as we speak in Rust but go off I guess you obviously know it all

              It’s not most libraries. They’re rewriting very specific libraries in Rust, generally ones that require both memory safety and concurency

              in fairness to them microsoft takes their backwards compatibility seriously to the point where i’d absolutely see them keeping their old implementation hidden somewhere and hot-swapping it in when they detect an old program that needs some inexplicable internal access to some C struct being launched.

                This is true, that could be the case based off previous observations buuuut considering they’re doing this for security purposes, I think it make little sense to leave them behind

              Didn’t know they did. And what I said was a jab at windowd but go off I guess you obviously want to feel hurt.

            I can’t I have to focus on shitting on other peoples subjective experiences and preferences because I’m I feel the need to separate myself from others strongly and solidify my own perception of my self as an important figure in the most important group as a coping mechanism for how poorly my childhood social growth went :(

            Maybe tomorrow tho!

          we obviously have so much eliteness and so much skill at everything, I can’t believe you are even asking such a simple question. you must really be an ios 🤮 user or maybe you even use Ubuntu 🙄🙄🙄 like one of those wannabe foss-ers. even worse, you probably have an iq below 300🤣🤣🤣🤣 like those normies. imagine being a normie. 😤😤 dude you should already know that we are elite how could you be asking “At what though?” like a nerd 🥸

          i use arch btw /s

    I don’t care what OS I am using, desktop shortcuts and icons get turned off immediately. ew
