    I know that I might be a bit insufferable on this point, but I feel it bears repeating over and over. Somebody has got to do it, Microsoft fucked over this world and people still believe that Linux is decades behind windows whilst in reality it’s leaps and bounds ahead. Yet people keep paying for windows shit.

    People need to hear this shit, like it or not

      Alright then, keep repeating it the way you do and see how people react to you, and how it reflects on the Linux community as a whole.

      Perhaps you will gain the self-awareness necessary to actually understand why people are calling you insufferable.

        You call me insufferable, you are not people and I’m at the point where I don’t give a shit what a Microsoft apologist thinks. I had to reinstall operating systems this weekend, Linux for me, windows for my son. Linux was a breezy 30 minutes, including downloading the iso, writing the USB, and installing it with an encrypted drive.

        Windows was a breezy 7 hours of cursing, slamming my keyboard, loads of internet searches because 1) windows is an incompetent system and 2) Microsoft loves to sabotage their users. I wish I was kidding.

        This is not a one off, this is typical for a windows installation, I’ve been having to do this for decades, it’s always shit.

        It’s a retarded system and people have been scammed into buying shit and they love it because they don’t even know how bad it is.

        I would not really care much directly, to each their own. If you love to pay tripple for bad quality (hardware and software) Shiny toys then go ahead, buy Apple! If you love to roll around in shit then buy windows! The problem though is that inevitably, all windows users come to me with their windows crap show because inevitably it will break over stupid shit, not tell the user (or me) what’s actually wrong, it’s always some weirdo UUID or base64 registry string that nobody can know that needs to be changed. Fuuuuuuck that shit. I’m so tired of always having to deal with windows shit.

        If windows shots on me, I will shit on windows every chance I get.

        So yeah, install linux!
