I know this is bait, but seriously, I can't take anymore of this. either actually LEARN informatics or fuck off. I'm sick, physically and emotionally sick, of your incessant shitposting. If you don't understand a topic, don't comment on it. Linux is the furthest away from being obsolete compared to the proprietary and bricked shitfest that is Macintosh software and hardware, or the banal and bloated botware of Micropenis. If you want play your shitty AAA games (in which they don't even bother anymore), rather than actually contribute to intelligent technology related discussion? That's great. But newsflash!

No, user. Picture IS related, and it makes me mad. Life isn't fair. Programming video game physics should not entail so much autistic bullshit math. Because it does, because the Universe is cruel enough to impose this upon creatures with brains as smol as mine, I will make people like you miserable too. I will never stop. You have stage 4 cancer, and it's people like me, and you'll either die of it or live in perpetual pain, but you'll never get rid of it. Just like my cancer is the Universe, your cancer is me. :) We suffer together, forever.

How about those professional applications? Wine does not count, Windows can do Linux also with wrappers. Not that they run well in Wine in the first place for actual work. How about those new modern games? Oh wait, shitty DirectX in Wine and extremely small support from devs so no again.
Xavier Young
I don't think you understand the situation. You literally are required to rebuild the package in order to change application icons. The only patch would be desaturated icons replacing the default in the source files.
Carson Robinson

The point was, I am able to easily modify proprietary software to suit my needs and the FOSS software restricts this for some reason; possibly to add inconvenience to those who use proprietary operating systems.

Jose Jackson
If you don't like it, add a theme switcher. There's a reason you can compile it yourself, it's because that means you can modify it on a deeper level than WinHax can.

Sounds like you installed Arch... Why the hell would you do that? Arch is an OS that is DESIGNED to fail and cause errors. It's for people who like to spend time with diagonalizing weird errors.

NASA and the military use it. ISS uses it. the 85%+ of routers have embedded linux. Androids which account for over 80% of worldwide phones has a Linux kernel.
The majority of websites run on a LAMP stack which can be verified via your browser.

You clearly misunderstood his phrasing.
He means that stallman isnt a computer scientist. He's a philosopher, and foss advocate. His power is of speech and law.
Linus is our Engineer, Stallman is our socialite. You saying that he lacks technical skill doesn't disprove the fact that without his guidance and proposition of the GPL for all of these years we would of been lost to monopolies and proprietary software.
Basically IBM 2.0: skynet edition People once called him crazy. He was vindicated with snowden and assange

Just my personal experience, but most servers i've worked with run Windows, Linux servers tend to be virtual servers running under Windows. I'm not sure how true that is in general but I've worked with some large companies. Just saying, market share numbers don't tell the whole story in this case as a significant portion of those Linux servers could be depending on Windows.
Caleb Morales

I've actually never seen any company trust Windows to run anything important, I've seen windows under Linux but rarely.
