And that doesn't change my point because even automated it takes time.

It still takes time to download things, data only moves so fast and not everyones internet is the same.

I don't think it's a year to setup the software. Rather a year to load it lol. I've spent probably close to 4 years loading content into my Plex server and I don't see any end in sight.

You can make up all the reasons you want, the end result is the same. People use windows because the product works better and more reliably. If you want to split hairs be my guest but every metric windows wins against Linux in gaming. It has a higher user base, more software, better support, and as you said even entire businesses developing stuff for it because businesses go where the customers are. Sure you can say "oh they just greased some palms", but if you knew anything about the gaming world that doesn't mean jack shit if your games and hardware sucks. The graveyard of failed hardware and software prove that. As much as I love steam and I'm glad the steam deck is having success every other Linux based hardware attempt they've come up with has failed hard like their console and steam link. And what's your point about some games running better? Some games run worse too, beyond the fact your statement admits not every game runs better, how does that make Linux superior? Your example about companies also doesn't disprove anything because a company can do that...but hasn't in the entire 40+ years of Linux existence...curious isn't it? Also you can program driver's for windows too for devices lol, how else do you think people tinker with stuff? I mean I'm using a PS3 eye as a webcam on my Windows PC rn with custom community made drivers just like Linux does .....

Sure, games. Proton/wine came a long ways but it's far from perfect or has the same depth of software as native windows. Also potentially having to mess with lutris can be annoying. Graphics drivers are also better on windows too. If you'd like to try to argue this just look at protondb. Is it a 100% compatible with every title? No? Hmmm.... Not to mention proton triggering some games anti cheats.

It's also why there are several memes including the one posted just yesterday or the day before about "cheating" on Linux with windows for gaming. Plus the whole standard advice ive seen on Lemmy being "Linux for daily driving, windows partition for gaming." Now again, why would that be the standard advice? https://lemmy.world/post/5834366

^---thread in question where Linux gamers commiserate their difficulties getting certain games to run on their Linux systems.

Linux is fine, windows is okay if you disable the telemetry, just use what ever os and software you want but it's really silly to make false claims.

ive heard this for years and i always laugh, "there is nothing windows does that linux doesn't!" yeah, totally man.

When some stupid high percentage of animal test subjects die from the test, you would think they'd work on the product more before moving forward. Instead they're like "welp caused paralysis and death in the majority of our animal test patients, this is totally ready for human tests!"

I wish you could turn it off but isn't the lore explanation the grav drive giving artificial gravity? Or did I Mendela effect something.

He literally caused deaths in Ukraine for violating his dod starlink contract because he personally felt if Ukraine kicked Russia ass too hard, Russia would nuke the world.

A CIVILLIAN JUST DECIDED TO CAUSE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLES DEATH IN UKRAINE BY NOT HONORING HIS CONTRACT BECAUSE HE INSERTED HIMSELF WHERE HE SHOULDNT OF. Oh and the cock sucker STILL is out here lying starlink hasn't been paid for the use of that when the fucking American DoD and European DoDs PAID FOR UKRAINES FUCKING ACCESS

That's having too much power. Honestly just that alone I feel should put him up against a firing squad but that's just me.

Yes, but it's what it is doing with it that is the murky grey area. Anyone can read a book, but you can't use those books for your own commercial stuff. Rowling and other writers are making the case their works are being used in an inappropriate way commercially. Whether they have a case iunno ianal but I could see the argument at least.

It assails the eyes.
