> There are people on this board, right now, who still use Windows
How do you feel about this?

I don't give a fuck because I'm not a loser

>ubuntu bios bricker
>2017+1
>falling for linux meme

I don't care, it's their botnet, their own NSA dox.
Did OP wrote anything about GNU/Linux?

he did not write about cum breath either

I don't give a shit because I'm not an elitist prick who has a superiority complex.

I'm using Windows since v3.1 (3.1, 3.11, 95, 98, XP, Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, 10) and I actually like Windows 10. Can't say that it is a bad OS.

I also have Linux Mint intalled, but I hardly use it.

I don't think its about elitism. The problem with windows is that it's spyware and Sup Forums usually offers help for switching to something different / more techy.

...

I'm fine. If they don't want to change their os I won't force them.
They are free to do whatever they want.

I wouldn't switch to Windows afaik.

Nigger fuck you and your retardation

Windows, quite literally, JUST WERKS. and i'm not kidding, couple of clicks to install software, one click to change some settings, and boom, configured and running

Right now i'm posting from Devuan (and currently trying to figure out how to change the gay ass purple color) , i literally spent the whole day trying out meme distros
holy shit linux is so fucking shit, it's as if the devs try to make everything harder deliberately, i'm still trying to figure out how to install nvidia drivers on this shit, i have to kill the DE and X just to install a goddamn driver? fuck that.
Fucking 7zip? in commandline? who the fuck thought this was a good idea?

Currently i'm downloading alpine to give it a chance, if not, go openbsd, if not i fully embrace systemdick and install Arch, if not, i'm fucking off back to win7 and never using this shit again.

If you feel l33t because you keep making shit harder on yourself, genuinely KYS

what's the other option? mac? i'm not buying an overpriced underperforming machine that deliberately spies on me just so i can feel hipster, fuck that.

I can say it's bad OS. Installed it on my gf's laptop on Wednesday. It was a fresh iso from her university site. After the last update it installed (hours and hours of updates) I looked through the app list and saw that it installed a few "games" like Candy Crush Soda Saga. That was when Microsoft lost their last bit of integrity for me.

it just works.

i thought windows was pretty good before i seriously started using linux as well
then the differences started to really highlight the drawbacks of windows

Yeah it works but it spies on you and you paid much more than necessary for it than you could've for a windows machine

I feel molested

I do. There are a lot of people on this board who genuinely want to help people with Linux but there are a lot of people who don't. They just want to laugh in the face of people who still use Windows to and it's stupid.

Dude what?
Is this a meme I missed from somewhere? Or just incoherent nonsense?

but it's a hackintosh
(because i actually can't afford a mac)

oh well, please carry on then.

Yeah usually if someone asks a question, and I know the answer I'll help them, or at least try to lead them in the right direction. Unless it's a really dumb question, "like my gf forgot her fb password, how can I recover it for her?"
Get out of here with that bullshit

>t. fag who just installed linux for the first time

That's because windows is the best option sweetie

i dont really see much of a point to using macos over linux, but at least you didn't waste your money on it

...

Linux is a kernel.

If you have a job of some sort, you're probably going to have to interact with windows machines or servers. Being in contact with only one OS means you only have access to a single computer.

how new are you?

Less and less.
Google employees must acquire special permission to install Windows on a work computer.
Their default choices are GNU/Linux and macOS.

It's a Apple meme. For some strange reason g connects Apple with homosexuality.

Google is far from the norm.

If people want to choose to be slaves, it's not my problem. Though the radical defense of that slavery is annoying.

>inb4 muh slavery analogy is a fallacy

Oh gotcha. I just didn't make the connection to Apple. I should probably go to sleep

I feel in jail desu
I depend mostly on a single proprietary software that refuses to work on Wine. I could put up with tearing in GNU/Linux but I don't want to spend most of my time working in a VM. Nowdays I have almost no free time I could use to learn the free (as in freedom) alternatives to the software I use. Game is hard

My last 2 employees didn't have many Windows machines either.
Windows was pretty much restricted to QA and testing.
Might be because I don't even apply at companies that force devs to touch Windows.

This

good, cause for the most part linux distros are trash at utilizing my GPU

even simple tasks like switching workspaces produces shitty screen-tearing

I'd love to help them jumping off of the botnet wagon.
If anyone seeks help, find me here

Tech illiterate, get out.

kek

Muh games.

Actually I'm about to take the GNU/Pill

Two HDs. One with Linux other with Windows. Windows for gaming, Linux for diary use.

>not using Android for everything
>in the year of our Lord and savior 2018

you're fucking illiterate. also, linux as a desktop OS belongs in a VM

I just got tired of tinkering and googling every problem
btw I still hate proprietary software

I feel really sorry for the virgin lintard who made this.

If you get screen tearing, perhaps it's better you stick to Windows. Clearly, you're far too fucking retarded to set up an OS not made by Microsoft.

ehh I enjoy my games and simplicity of use.

I'd rather be spied on that have to take any addition steps to start a game.

>you're fucking illiterate
Sorry, Shakespeare.

Linux is a kernel.

indiferent

When your homies aren't your homies anymo'

> Implying that you can't just have the kernel on an hdd

Then? Should I say cp/dd/chown/dd/df/dir/Linux everytime I refer to this? Fuck you, man.

>"i play games on windows"
>aha! windows is just an OS! it doesn't come with the games you play on it!

You should say GNU/Linux, dumbass.

...

>not running the bare kernel on bare metal
Pussy

This.

GNU is the actual fucking operating system

Not sure if youre retarded, trolling, or so insecure that you are defending windows from an image on the internet.

Take my cool recent Reddit pictures and please retreat to you FOSS 'muh gnuu' safe space.
Bitch I run what I want!

What is this earth-shattering revelation supposed to accomplish?

>Have to open terminal and type in commands within an hour of installing the OS to actually get shit to work
>W-WHY DON'T MORE PEOPLE USE LINUX???

It's literally the current fucking year of 2018 and Linux developers still don't understand that normies don't want to do this shit. Even Ubuntu, the most normie-friendly distro is guilty of this shit.

You're assuming I use Windows/Linux/OSX....

the simple fact is that there's no one group who releases both GNU and Linux together
you can say it's linux with gnu stuff added to it
or you can say it's gnu with linux added to it
rms says it should be gnu/linux, but he didn't make linux, nor any of the distros which include both linux and gnu, so he's hardly an authority on the subject, linus doesn't give two shits how you call something with linux in it
bottom line is, literally nobody cares, and those who do don't have any authority on it
there's simply no "proper" name for it

Chromebook uses Linux

chrome os is gentoo linux based

Gentoo is not Linux.

i'm pretty sure i said "gentoo linux", not "gentoo is linux"

Calling a system “Foobar Linux” implies that it's a flavor of “Linux”'.

and? is it not an operating system centred around linux?
sure, it might as just as much centred around gnu, but doesn't make the above any less valid
it's up the distributors' discretion how it should be called, as after all, it's their project

>connect 3.0 flash drive to system running Ubuntu

how 2 make internets fsater?

>not installing Avast!

>connect usb keyboard to wangblows machine

>turns out I have to install fucking drivers to get it to work
same for ethernet

werks for me

if it's that troublesome for you to look for and mount a usb device manually just use the Gnome disk utility, Disks.

fpbp

you probably don't even know what a kernel is

>for some strange reason
lol

And you belong in the trash.

Is this real

I honestly don't understand people who sperg about Windows while not caring about the 20+ daily Apple threads. Jesus fucking christ Apple is the most anti FOSS corporation there is, both in software and hardware.

fpbp

Fuck you M$, suck my fucking dick, this was a problem that with any previous OS was resolved in 5 minutes.

dont care, at least theyre on traditional computers
phone and tablet users is where the real hatred lies for me

startup options do exist though

pic related

literally how

I tried so much shit and said fuck it in the time ive been digging to fix this I could have reloaded 10 already

Feel like it's actually works.

POO

>There are people on this board, right now, forever butthurt and triggered that I use Windows

why would you put OS itself on a raid?

>implying Windows is spyware

Your fucking ISP spies on you and I don't see your ass complaining about that.

what's good, faggot?
