IED(EDS) sufferer and spectrum surfer. You probably won’t like what I have to say.
Do you honestly think linux will be desktop ready if people can’t just install it and go?
It doesn’t matter who’s fault it is, it only matters if a solution is forthcoming.
If the manufacturers don’t make it, then one of you has to. But you are all too busy working on your fuckdamn vanity distros to actually unify and do something to forward the OS.
I have tried unsuccessfully to transition to linux as my daily driver more than five times now since the early 00s and every single time I run into a major failure that halts all progress, and then I go back to it a few years later hoping for something different and each time being left for days without being able to get it running. Never had this problem with windows.
And I’m a seasoned senior IT admin that has stood up and maintained dozens of linux servers in my lifetime.
Yet every time I share my terrible experiences with the software AND the community, there’s alway some rancid windowlicker rushing into the comments to tell me “Acktchsually it is commercial software that is wrong”, again reminding me of just how terrible you people are.
And now that I have someone of your ilk here, I’d also like to ask:
#Why the FUCK are you people wasting so many millions of hours of human effort by everyone and their brother making functionally identical distros with vanity tweaks, and getting into doxxing over stupid shit like over which U.I. to package.
Your software is shit, it will never be desktop ready because none of you can focus on the real issues. You can lie to yourself all you want but Windows is simply the superior desktop OS.
Keep in mind, I don’t really like Windows, but I fucking hate linux with a seething vitriol only matched by some racist homophome grandpas seeing their daughter kiss a black woman. And people like you are 30% of the reason.
Ok cool now make a distro that handles my peripherals. Oh that’s not happening? Ok, fuck linux.
Oh man that site looks just like the internet before it started to suck.
Thanks for the tip, so glad Lemmy makes it easy to block communities.
Also: It seems everyone is claiming it didn’t affect Linux but as part of our corporate cleanup yesterday, I had 8 linux boxes I needed to drive to the office to throw a head on and reset their iDrac so sure maybe they all just happened to fail at the same time but in my 2 years on this site we’ve never had more than 1 down at a time ever, and never for the same reason. I’m not the tech head of the site by any means and it certainly could be unrelated, but people with significantly greater experience than me in my org chalked this up to Crowdstrike.
Oh you really have no fucking clue. It’s medical and no treatment has worked for more than a few weeks. it’s only a matter of time before I am banned. Now imagine living with that for 4+ decades and being the butt of every thread’s joke.
A real shame that can’t be considered medical discrimination.
Is there an easy way to silence every fuckdamn sanctimonious linux cultist from my lemmy experience?
Secondly, this update fucked linux just as bad as windows, but keep huffing your own farts. You seem to like it.
I’m less angry about the terrible software and moreso about it’s terrible community.
