From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Opposite.

Fedora with KDE is a Pain, and GNOME is simply underpowered a lot.

Installing GrapheneOS or programming a microcontroller just didnt work. I have no idea of udev rules and these things should work better. (Tbh I will try to fix the packages)

Also processes crashing just often freeze my entire everything. No seperation, no ctrl+alt+del task manager which nearly always works. The task manager is a normal app, and it just doesnt start if the desktop is down.

Virt-manager has not enough RAM? Yeah, Plasma crashes and I need a hard reboot. Yay.

Meanwhile Windows sucks, but it works. Also it is better for

collaborative normie documents
office: easy presentations (again, collaboration), excel: easy graphs with a UI that makes sense
arcgis: qgis is better on surface, but all the underground transformation tools are so messed up.

Many things in Uni make me get insane on Linux. Being the only one literally learning another program, while learning a bit of that proprietary license garbage too, is burnout and I will probably fail in the "recognize this button in arcGis and explain how to do x" exam.
