As opposed to having a bajillion specific distros, repos, and sources flying around...?

Obviously I'd never touch the Microsoft store though.

Everyone holding shares has a pretty vested interest in believing the bullshit, because it impacts all of their bottom lines. The truth loses them money, so they'd much prefer a semi-plausible lie.

"Gamers are dumb fucks and I'm a gamer."

Well I can't fault your logic.

I mean... Windows is bad in many respects, but that respect isn't necessarily one of them.

If I could get easy to access, judgement free tech support for Linux then I'd be fine (outside of walled gardens like Discord). I just don't know how to solve my problems in Linux especially considering there are so many additional variables and often you either don't get answers, are asking in the wrong place, or are asking in the wrong way. A lot of the time you just get scorn for not being born a Linux power user.

I do feel like I have basically no choice but to switch once W10 runs its course. I've got a dual boot of Fedora 40 KDE that I'm toying with.

How long until we get to the default "I don't get paid to ask questions" mentality of ad services.

It's frustrating that the answer to any of the questions/issues I have are generally reams of commands and walls of text that I only partially understand. If I find answers at all now that all discourse is being sectioned in to walled gardens like Discord. 😬

You can use the official WinGet package manager for Windows pretty easily.

At last, a way to commit genocide without dirtying your hands. Combine that with their AI modelling of attack vict... targets, and they'll just have a 24/7 roaming robot kill squad.

Booze cruise control.

Because what you really want is a car that specifically depends on long term software updates, and is frequently the target of product recalls, from a company in financial freefall.

Well that's certainly one way for your brand to lose a lot of respect once it becomes apparent. Much like I when want to lose respect for myself, I use Chum brand dog food. Chum, it's still food, alright?
