Those are two different skill sets, just because you think swapping a heating element is hard doesn’t mean everyone else does

My Aussie friends didn’t have the steam deck?!?

Something that has no important data on it whatsoever is absolutely working just fine, and yeah, I had a slip of the tongue, but you bringing it up is a sign you’re out of arguing points, so here’s one. Lemmy is absolutely falling victim to what reddit fell to, echo chambers. Linux is Lemmy’s favorite operating system, and it’s users will defend it to the death and not reason beyond that veil.

I actually can prove this, go ahead, simply try and come up with a sincere advantage windows has over Linux, market superiority, user familiarity and accessibility, software compatibility, I bet you cant without saying “there are no advantages” or adding a “but”

That’s my problem with Lemmy and Linux, I don’t even like windows myself but you’re all such fanboys that you make the prospect of Linux just insufferable because of how you can’t have an unbiased discussion about the different OS’.

Because Its already installed, working fine, and I don’t need it, I believe the very first thing I said is “in pretty sure my dedicated jellyfin server will be fine”

Which once again, means I don’t care about security updates on that computer, why would I put in extra work? Because it’s Lemmy’s favorite browser?

Who cares, windows works just fine in that use case

Why would I use Linux for something that doesn’t require it?

But yes, Im pretty sure my little server I use explicitly for jellyfin will be fine

I’m not a radio guy, but for a drone antennae, wouldn’t you want vertical range rather than broadside range?

Paywall

Well now I wanna hear more about the history of this mystical shit button

Only 3 years

Thank you! I’m a staunch believer that most of you don’t think about how much prior knowledge you need just to be able to use Linux, let alone not break things.

Tchau, Elon

IDK I would say 3d monitors are a trend that died pretty hard

What does that do?

That’s some STD right?

How many times does the public have to learn if the CEO says it, he probably doesn’t know what he’s talking about. If the devs say it, listen

I find moonlight/sunshine work better, also available on android tvs

Also though, you have to consider not all gamers are tech savvy, and your “generic fixes” through terminal would immediately make some of them have a quit moment.

I think Linux users forget the amount of base knowledge that they had to learn in order to simply use their software proficiently sometimes.

I for one welcome the ability to:

• play flash games,
• Games without launchers or not on steam
• Run vortex, wemod, obscure mod installers without winetricks that are more hassle than they’re worth (if they work at all)
• Literally just not have to find workarounds for everything I want to do that isn’t through steam that adds another hour of research and installation to the process.

You may now begin the downvotes. (Even if you’re wrong I respect your opinions)

Ugh so much snark in this thread
