The fuck does that even mean?

that is, indeed, the joke

They may not have a choice, depends on how aggressively they want to push this crap.

My hospital will be freaking the fuck out about this right… about…. Now.

Worked for me, but until there’s a consensus on how to onboard the layman on Linux, we need to stop bitching that the layman doesn’t use Linux.

Honestly, yeah. I get that social interaction is awkward for some people. I myself have Asperger’s (shut the fuck up, Cartman, I see your pudgy ass back there fidna pipe up), and I’ve never found people easy to understand. I think there really needs to be an initiative to teach people, normal people, how to use this stuff, and it doesn’t start by being an asshole. It starts by giving a shit and answering questions if you know the answers, or by helping people understand what might be going wrong. Even a word or two is helpful for beginning a Google search, but you have to know what you’re looking for in order to start looking for it.

MS died after Steve Ballmer era CMV

Oh my god I want this shit to stop

People seeing scifi works as somehow prophetic is something I will never understand…

Tbf that’s because Microsoft got in bed with Nokia and gave the finger to everyone else

RTFM

The battlecry of everyone that bitches that people aren’t willing to use Linux but won’t bother to meet them where they are.

Does it ever occur to you that people often don’t even know what they need to Google? Half the time I do Google something, it comes to some forum or Reddit post of someone screaming READ THE FUCKING MANUAL, but not even giving that user some hint what they’re even looking for in your religious scriptures.

You want people to use Linux? You need to meet them where they are, not take it as an opportunity to show how smart much of a smartass you are.

Be better than that.

no thx

I’m not recommending it. I’m saying that’s how its Adblock works.

sudo apt install vanilla-gnome desktop

sudo apt purge *cinnamon*

Same with Opera / Opera GX

Then move on with your life. There’s literally nothing that could ever change your mind, so arguing with you is even more fruitless than usual.

What part about “third party” do you not understand?

There’s thousands of machines in my hospital. They’re staying on Windows. They’re fully invested in the Azure ecosystem, and for what it’s worth, it works well, but that’s after what I imagine is hundreds of thousands, maybe millions in investments. This is what makes me wonder if we home power users just aren’t the target demographic anymore. They know Proton is catching up super quick, and I’m not sure they’re willing to compete. Is it even worth it for them?

Just want to preemptively state: THIS IS A RHETORICAL QUESTION. NONE OF US ARE QUALIFIED TO ANSWER THIS QUESTION.

Yeah, that’s… people need to stop prescribing Linux to solve everything from minor glitches ti major cloud outages to marital issues and erectile dysfunction…

It knows it’s in a VM
