There's designated folders for binaries and libraries. What's so hard to understand?
With all the valid reasons to be mad at Linux, why choose this?

You forgot to show the endless clickpath to the desired setting.

Because Windows (mess) way is only right way

...

at least you can figure that out on your own through a few seconds of exploration. Linux you cannot do shit unless you know the exact names for everything.

The second is the perfect solution. Firstly, it doesn't require GUI to be loaded in memory in order to turn the device off, secondly, it can be automated by a shell script. One more thing, there can be written a simple GUI wrapper to do this shit with a mouse.

Do you have The Downs™? It works for literally everything I've ever tried it with. Maybe the bullshit.so you copied over had some of its own dependencies that you did not also copy over, in which case it doesn't matter what operating system you're using it wouldn't have worked until you copied the dependencies over as well.

oh it's perfectly understandable. So App X and App Y both have their .so and man pages randomly mixed across the entire filesystem in some pattern.
I mean Windows is SO much worse, what are they thinking? Putting everything an app needs into that app's folder?
CRAZY man!!!

>Putting everything an app needs into that app's folder?
AHAHAHAHAHA no.

>One more thing, there can be written a simple GUI wrapper to do this shit with a mouse.

No one ever does that ever. Cause its shitnix. The desktop experience is made to be as hellish and obtuse as possible.

the GNU/+Linux side shows the entirety of the instructions

The Windows side doesn't show all the clusterfuck GUIs you have to hunt and click through to get to this point

Because Ctrl-D inserts EOF into input stream, Ctrl-C is the keyboard interruption they're more important than a "clipboard".

just take a quick look into the gentoo forum. its fucking HILARIOUS.

20 apps uses sql.dll, so then i have 20 copies of sql.dll in 20 apps folders.

bravo winfags :DD

>needing instructions for basic task

ok you just told me a bunch of mumbo jumbo which means absolutely nothing

Had you actually used Linux anytime in the past ten years or so, you'd know that you hardly ever need to use CLI if you really don't want to. Command line is just the easier and faster way of doing things, especially if you're looking up instructions and can just copy-paste the commands and be done with it.

>memorizing directories, commands, and program names totally reasonable
>hitting the windows button and typing device manager totally unreasonable

typical autism reasons. If somebody can copy dlls into my filesystem then I have bigger problems

no way bro, that's like 20 megabytes of wasted space.
Oh and only if those 20 apps all use the exact same version. Yeah right. That happens.

That's not true at all. My main OS is Windows. I use Linux all the time as an internet browsing sandbox. The amount of headache I had to go through just to get it browsing the web normally was retarded.

It's probably your miserable experience. Experienced Gentoomen don't wait a compilation process, they can compile in background, pajeets can't manage their time. 3 hours is an inadequate exaggerated time estimate for a text editor

Amazing. Because for me web browsing has worked out of the box every time I've tried.

Then why do you care about a tech-tier OS? Use your consumer-tier OSes.

Linux is an OS for multiple users, unlike Windows, which usually runs on PCs. Imagine 20 people being logged into Linux at the same time. OS must be protected from DLL hijacking in one way or another.

>memorizing directories
The whole point of the directory structure in Linux is that you don't have to memorize that shit, because everything is in its place.

Valid reasons to be mad though:
pulseaudio: Never fucking works
xorg: old and buggy. Will take ages before wayland is usable
gtk3: breaks theming with every update
dconf: Let's copy one of the worst elements of Windows and only make it slightly more bearable
I could go on.

>y-you have complete control over your s-system
>Okay I want to get rid of SystemD
>w-well now lets not gey crazy!

> Valid reasons to be mad though:
/bin, /sbin, /usr/bin, /usr/sbin.

Windows is made for single users? what are you smoking

LD_PRELOAD

Well, it's how it's being used. Just look at
> copy dlls into _my_ filesystem

All symlinks to /bin these days, but yeah that sucked. I read that unix devs back in the day actually did this, because their hard drive got full, so they created /sbin for static binaries on a new drive, but that lost all meaning when dynamic binaries ended up there.

just disable it in BIOS/UEFI

Then use a different distro you cocksucker tripfag, that's like saying "I want to remove the registry."

Yes, Windows was made as a single user OS with no networking. Both these things got tacked on later. You can actually still see the remains of some stolen unixoid network stack in Windows. hosts for example is in:
%SystemRoot%\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

Multi user functionality in Windows is still kind of broken. runas.exe is not as mature as su or sudo.

Then again Unix was made as a single user OS, but had multi user support added early in its life.

He's right to an extent, but he's extremely butthurt and uses Microsoft.

>Putting everything an app needs into that app's folder

Windows places DLLs and config files and lots of other shit in other places than the folder where the program is.

> not using the middle mouse button

you are frail and you are weak

>> nope doesnt work ahaha fuck you!

LD_LIBRARY_PATH, desu

>BIOS/UEFI
This is Linux, right? I have Windows 10

wrong

check out the size of your WinSxS folder cuck.
especially after installing all the different MSVC shit and other versions of runtime Visual C++ libs

It has nothing to do with what OS you use, are you baiting me friend?

>99% of all community projects have such useless install scripts that you have to hunt down the individual packages it wants
Makes it really fucking hard to justify using this OS

>Y-you're just a poorfag

It's proliferation vs. exclusivity.

I can build an OS that will do everything for you but needs a supercomputer to even turn on. I can run Linux from everything on everything. Which will get more use?

> are you baiting me friend?
Isn't that obvious? Instead of asking that, you could've feed him more.
This is a complicated tech thing, I suggest to call a technician. There's no way a simple customer can do UEFI stuff on his own.

except on Windows it actually has real, non autistic reasons

That actually drives me mad. It's really amazing how many folders there are that store program data/configs on windows.

> WinSxS isn't autistic

yep, I now literally have to go to the command line everytime I want to start my program.

> b-b-ut just make it permanent

no, because then other programs might fucking break, which is the exact reason that linux idiots use to justify having this retarded system in the first place. it's irony on overdrive

>Critical bugs in Linux are fixed in less than 24 hours after discovery
I hate you all!

Just put it in a script that exports it and then starts the program. Is that too technical for you?

It has never made a problem for me, which is 1 million percent more than what I can say about Lincucks

ITT - "I don't know how to use it so its bad!"

We're sorry there was a colorful box to tell you what to do and then a frowny face when "Something happened :("

>yep, I now literally have to go to the command line everytime I want to start my program.
Or you could just paste all the commands into a text file and add #!bash as the first line.

no, it's too retarded for me because now I have to go to the COMMANDLINE TO START TEH FUCKING APPLICATION YOU GODDAMN IDIOT.

"j-j-just double click it, your [random file explorer] surely has support to execute scripts right?? no?"

"oh you wanted to keep your desktop entry? Haha nice try!!

"oh you like quickly scanning a folder and seeing your executable by its icon? shitta outa luck here :)"

Well, you're right. How about you recompile it with your libraries?

What a buttery smooth and elegant work around.

If you want to create a double-clickable desktop icon, you still can. Just make a .desktop file like those in /usr/share/applications.
It's super simple. You don't have to go to the command line or anything.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

...

Pajeet is mad as fuck right now, he knows he's losing.

yeah it is both of those things faggot

Are you enjoying Window's 2-month security update period? How about your host of shitty windows apps that no individual at MS is accountable for? Your monolithic pile of shit OS working out for you?

Open source developers fix my OS overnight, and then let me read the source. Fuck you.

Today the EVANGELISM is 2/10 EFFECTIVE. Good job!

Okay list em out for me bud. All those distros without systemd

>i-it's like removing the r-registry!

Oh I love that famous Linux customization. Complete control!

Good work!, keep spreading bull... er, i mean facts to more potential customers. You may seem to have an unabated passion for technology so i guess you be be interested into a job as DEVELOPER EVANGELIST. Believe me, you're good at what you do. Allow yourself take this unique chance!

it did and i fixed it on the commandline in terminal session by renaming nvidia .so somehow by first getting into text mode by editing the grub menu during startup.
lucky me that i had another laptop where i could go online.
This shit is exactly why Linux is utter trash and always will be.

Yeah send those "open documents" to your boss or professor see how well that goes over. When they bitch just go into your turbo autism mode about proprietary software

Fucking Stallman

That's what pdf files are for.
