  • To be fair, a lot of those are due to a Windows legacy of dominating the market, which isn’t going to change until there are more people elsewhere. It’s a bit of a catch-22, and yet even being a small percent use in desktop Linux has started to get distros that feel and run similar to Windows enough so people who don’t dabble in Windows specific software don’t miss it. It’s also a bit much to weigh Windows as better in many of those above features when it still have its own issues often, even though it is the dominate and supported OS.

    I laughed at your last part. I have never not had to do the same for Windows as I have for Linux when a problem pops up. Google the problem. Those troubleshooters are such a waste of time, and honestly the only time I’ve had an automated fix that worked to resolve a situation was in Linux via purging the old driver and reloading it. The Windows troubleshooter is like the first tier on a tech support line, where you tell them, yeah, I already did all that.






  • Maybe they should have taken a different route to maintain the economy. Which was the supposed point of these business loans (certainly there wasn’t a deeper plan to fleece the country) How could we have applied billions of those wasted dollars differently? Well, we determined we couldn’t give more than a few hundred dollars to all people directly because they would find a way to fake needing it, like they do welfare and voting and needing help, so yeah. I don’t know.
