Easton Cruz
same thing. People on this board were calling win7 'wintoddlers' and 'wincucks' ... this always happens.
Windows just werks.
So many Lintoddlers on this board simply use Linux cause they think its cool not because it gives them an advantage - its quite the opposite. It makes their life harder and is inefficient lol.
Theyd never admit that though.

The better question is: Would you guys drop your linux if every legally purchased and installed copy of Windows 10 would provide you with a free loli?

Let's assume for the sake of the argument that you would have to purchase it in order to receive free loli.

I dualboot personally and in class use Windows and not lose momentum and use Linux at my house to make it as polished as possible on my end. Manjaro is pretty good already with kernel swapping already embedded into it.

Win 7 in all of my experiences was a bad OS but whatever coats your goat I just feel more comfortable in Linux for some odd reason. I don't particularly dislike Windows with a passion like some faggots on here She's probably a physical botnet and will keep MS closer to you and report all the child fucking you do. this

It does absolutely everything I want it to do, and nothing more. It's mine, because I put it together. It's better to have a small set of simple parts, from which you can build anything, than a huge set of complex pre-built things. Tinkering is a timesink, but if you don't enjoy it, you don't belong here.
Everything is compact, lightweight and efficient. It looks and works and acts the way it does because I fucking said so. I can add, change or remove anything - anything - at any time.
Browsing is the same on any operating system. I don't play video games. (Game is not a verb.) The only image editing I do is cropping, so GIMP. The only video editing I do is trimming, so Shotcut. The only office tasks I do are assignments - so LaTeX. (But only because it's fun. You should just use Libreoffice.) I also have no friends, so Linux wins again. (But isn't it all through a web browser anyway?)
Tell me that more than 5% of Sup Forums is any different, and while you're at it, enjoy these things on Windows:
>tiling wm (or any WM you feel like - you own your computer) >bash (or any good shell) and scripts >package manager >manpages >privacy >no bloat >special files >motherfucking any control over what your computer does at all
Ethan Harris
anything without a package manager and text editable config doesn't just works it's just shit

>easily fixed No, your fixes don't do anything anymore. Microsoft started removing controls with the first major update, the only one that gets around it is enterprise/education.
The graphical design is complete shit. They threw together several different styles without trying to mesh them.
It doesn't "just werk". There are plenty of complaints of hardware issues that didn't exist with 7.
The "gaming mode" actually reduces performance.
You have to battle Microsoft constantly on the handful of privacy settings that exist.
You don't get a choice with updates.

That means a copy to /home and /etc. Big deal. LTS kernels are rock stable with open drivers.
Nicholas Myers
I use it as work OS.
I program there, read books and listen to music.
When I need really to play games I just boot my Gaming PC.
This board is filled with programmers, administrators etc so they don't need Windows.
Linux in my experience is very easy to develop and if I had more money I would use macOS.
Windows for me is hassle and I used Windows almost entire my life. I use windows 10 and it is pretty shitty for me I don't even want to mention because my post is already wall of text that nobody would read.
Charles Fisher
>If your Windows does not beat Linux in each category it is irrational for you to use it over Linux. FTFY.
After all, one makes you deal with an openly hostile privacy invasive company that acts as your "sysadmin" and the other does not.
You need to justify dealing with the hostile entity, and something much, much better than "it's who I know" or "I tried to work with it first" or "pushed itself onto me".
EVERY reason must exist for you to deal with it, you should reduce your exposure by any means possible.
Alexander Reyes
Windows 7 was slow for me I don't have any game-apps on my system since I disabled the Store That's just because I think it's better than every other os so far. But that's of course just my personal opinion. I even payed for the license Sadly not on a single device I just in the past 8 years

How can you defend something if it needs 3rd party programs to block it?
Even defend something that is openly invades your privacy.
Its funny how government gives you opium then after you get hooked in you allow them to fuck in your ass.
And about linux It is hard first time to learn it I was in same shit but you will learn it.
Now I can configure linux for myself for 10 minutes with all development tools and settings installed.
If we as kids was using linux from start windows would be very hard for us and that is true.
I have another PC for gaming and I waasted 2-4 hours for finding drivers and shit.
After learning basic stuff on linux I don't see a reason to even switch fully to windows. Everything that is not games works on linux and slowly games on linux will be fully available thanks to valve.

>If your GNU/Linux does not beat Windows in each category it is irrational for you to use it over Windows 10.
7 does everything you want just as well as 10 but you have more control over the OS, it is irrational for you to use 10 over 7 or 8.1
Justin Hall
>If your GNU/Linux does not beat Windows in each category it is irrational for you to use it over Windows 10. Why? Not sure if you have used GNU/Linux, but there are many things it does that you don't even think about because they're missing or not as nice in other operating systems. The shell being as good as it is, as well as all the community made software that works within it leads to some really cool stuff you wouldn't really do on any other OS normally. As someone who is still using Windows and sees everyone shitting on it, perhaps you built this post around the idea of "tell me why I should have to give up Windows", but everyone else is seeing it as "why is he still bothering with Windows?" They don't care about those little holdups you have. Everything is so nice that none of that is even a concern.
It doesn't have to be better at literally everything, although honestly it is, it just has to be really good in general.
I browser the web just the same, I play my games, some Steam, some not, I chat with friends on various things such as IRC and Hangouts as well as Steam. I've been doing everything just fine on GNU/Linux for years now. When you're at the point that you are not only defending Windows, but trying to justify Windows 10, which is _literally_ malware, I think you should step back and rethink your situation a bit. You're just not thinking straight. There's no way you are.
Jack Davis

I can't say for certain that you are wrong about the existence of some people like this, but if you are implying all or the majority are like this, you should really learn a thing or two. Things like i3 and tmux are all about efficiency, and you don't see anything like them on Windows.
