They already have, they use it internally for switching in their IaaS.

It's pretty obvious. Neither Linux or Windows are actual paragons of perfection so how could a mongrel be anything but bad?
Lincoln Hill
By taking only the good parts of either. Damn you sure are stupid.

The most fully functional, easy to use distro ever, with great driver and software support.
The downside is that it will be filled with NSA backdoors, telemetry, built-in ads, and all the other bullshit win10 users have to endure.

It means wifi works in Linux, you're too dumb to enable it

hey pal i ran out of ram today ill have you know and i only have 8
YOUR REALLY MAKING MY SKIN CRAWL
WHY ARE YOU STILL ALIVE
HEY YOU...REALLY?!
Jose Morris
Even if you give your system 64GiB RAM, it'll eventually run out. That's how operating system works. It has to find a point where it'll begin to store data into page/swap file

almost laughable

What do you use your computer for?
Anthony Perry
>has never played GTA 5
gaming while watching youtube videos or kodi mostly othertimes i do VMs and experiment with different things
Ayden Collins
Unless you use multiple VMs it's pointless.
However, if you are playing manchild games AND have VM on (for some autistic reason) you might need around 16GiB but not more than that.
RAM doesn't make your computer faster. Don't talk like an underage toddler
Connor Anderson
i had vivaldi crash/force close today because i had ran out of system ram so i can either start limmyself (fuck that) or i can add more ram
and i know it doesn't necessarily make my computer faster but it will stop another force close when all i am doing to watching youtube and setting GTA 5 to its absolute max settings with ignore suggested limits off

Great answer

Ubuntu with Windows 10 subsystem.

W7 era Microsoft OS would have been awesome. They could have called it 'Doors' and it'd be a security OS in the vein of Redhat for enterprise use yet still a decent Desktop OS. They would have contributed developers to WINE in order to make Doors and Windows cross compatible. They could have sold it as their "virus-free" OS. All they would have needed to do was make a large amount of it closed-source and make it half the cost of Windows and they could have captured a good amount of the market that has or would have gone to Ubuntu and Mint.
W10 era Microsoft is not worth discussing.

how does one extinguish a GPL project?

Ryder Rogers
Not extinguish, but control.
If MS makes distro, it will be the Android of desktop operating systems.
Linux in core, but proprietary layers on top of it that can potentially do bunch of shady shit.
Thing is that MS has resources to push it's product way more than any other distro company can.
What's Linus' estimated TTL as head kernel maintainer?
Either bus scenario or he just having enough of the shit, doesn't matter, someone will have to step in or his role will have to be decentralised.

Is it from your experience or did you crowdsource your issue from other threads?
