I mean its not like a lot lf Americans put a lot of effort in promouncing foreign words and names correctly as well

1. No one said linux doesnt work, the Person just said this is one point why He uses Windows.

2. Building your own Software is definitely exaggerated.

3. My graphics applications dont work properly (Affinity Suite), my Video Tool barely works although its supported natively (davinci), my DAW (maschine) and my music Hardware (maschine mk3) dont work at all. Installing my vsts is very Tricky (aome dont work at all). My cloud storage has no linux Client (proton drive). This is just the most important stuff for my use case, which keeps me from switching to Linux.

How is thst wrong? I second this, and 1 and 2 are the reasons i am not on Linux yet wirh my main PC. Win 11 runs without issues for me, i cant install Essential Software and Hardware thag i use on Linux and Apple is expensive and i really dont like the Windowmanagement and some other Quirks of macOs. btw i use all three of them, win 11 on my main pc, linux on my old laptop and macOS at work.

I also use it since win 95. And really gad no Problems over the last years. Maybe the start if win10 was a little rough but after that no issues.I have used it for All kind of stuff: gaming, graphics 3d and 2d, game dev, programming, a lot of music production, writing and just tinkering around. I am no admin though, so i have no opinion on that. The only Thing where performance was bad, was on my old laptop which i Switched to Linux, but on my main PC no complaints. I do wish to switch to Linux at some point but right now some Software and Hardware i use just isnt supported, so there is really no good reason to switch now.

Well there is a lot to critizise on Windows, but to be honest i didnt have any Problems with Updates, crashes, installing Software and drivers or anything Else on Windows in years. Even upgrading from win 10 to 11 caused no issues. I do want to switch to Linux when the Hardware and Software i need is eventually supported, because i dont like all the privacy issues on Windows, but from a Performance and stability point of view i really cant complain about Windows at the Moment

Well at least in the EU where simiar stuff is Plotted by politicians this is exactly their "Argument "

With the App i can use the chargers. Its the App of a lange energy Provider in germany. With this App i can use all These 250k + chargers. Additionaly i have a card that i can use for starting the charging process, if i am somewhere with no mobile Internet Connection. On top of that i always pay the same price per kw/h no matter if i use a charger in germany, Italy, Sweden etc.

Hm that seems like Problem specific to norway. I have one app with which i have access to over 250k chargers all over europe. I just checked the charging point map and indeed, in norway there are very few i can use.

Thats true but anyway it doesnt make sense do trash a Brand that has becone verb, has its Logo on Millionen of Websites and is refered to by probably every news Website in existence. Imagine if McDonalds changed their golden M to a gray O.

1. They still kept their Brands for those products. Its still google and not alphabet search.
2. The fact that most people call These companies Google and Facebook Shows how hard it is to rebrand

Does anyone have an idea how to get the Icon on Android with Firefox? When i install the PWA i only get an Icon with a White V on a Black background

It looks like the Button that brings you to the in app Shop of a shitty mobile game

ChatGPT explain like im 5:

Scientists who study space recently discovered something very interesting. They were using a special telescope called the Webb Space Telescope to look at very old light that comes from very far away. They found three tiny dots of light that they think could be something called “dark stars.” Dark stars are special because they are powered by something called “dark matter.”

Now, dark matter is a kind of stuff that makes up about 27% of the whole universe. It’s called “dark” because we can’t see it directly. Scientists know that dark matter is there because they can see how it affects other things in space, like how it pulls galaxies together. It’s a bit like how you can see the wind blowing through the trees, even if you can’t see the wind itself.

Dark stars are different from the stars we see in the sky at night. The stars we see are powered by something called nuclear fusion, which is like a big fire in space. But dark stars are special because they are powered by the collisions of dark matter particles. They are much, much bigger and brighter than normal stars, like our Sun.

The scientists found these three possible dark stars when they were looking at really old light. These stars are very young compared to the rest of the universe, even though they are still very, very old. The scientists think that these dark stars could actually be the reason why supermassive black holes exist in the universe. They also think that dark stars could help explain how galaxies, which are groups of stars, form and change over time.

This discovery is very exciting because it could help us understand more about the universe and how it works. Scientists still have a lot to learn about dark matter and dark stars, but with telescopes like the Webb Space Telescope, we are getting closer to unlocking some of these mysteries.

My main Problem is with my music production Software and Hardware, which cant be easily installed with wine. Other than that i have affinity suit which works with wine, but not without Problems. Lastly i use davinci resolve, which claims to Support linux natively but barely works.

I use Windows because i need to use certain Software

Im old aparently, :(

Having this as your home Network would even prevent you from scrolling lemmy the wholr night in your darkk bedroom

I mean the Lamps providing the lifi Network still need to be wired to some kind of cable or fibre that connects to the internet or intranet. I dont know, but As i understand its like a spacially confined WLAN, which makes it pretty well secured against people connecting who are not supposed to. So maybe its good for Super secret conference rooms. Another idea would be industry 4.0 stuff, where in factories every maschine or device is connected to a nerwork. Basically an alternative to 5G

After some Research and reading through the answeres here i think you are right. I do appreciate all the suggestions, but ditching my vsts and especially my Hardware really isnt an Option for me. I have spent too much money on them and i love working with them, and for a lot of them, there really just is now alternative that cones close to the quality. I dont want to talk down on all the amazing work the foss community has created, but i hope people understand that i dont wabt abandon my (expensive) collection. And in the end, my goal is to make nusic and not tinker around with an operating system. Maybe i will try a dual Boot solution. It really is frustrating though, i would really like to switch to Linux and i dont mind to put some effort in. But it seems that as long as the companies behind all the software dont Support linux, i will have to Stick with Windows.
