You answered all of them , but they are tangent to what point ibam trying to make.

As a SIMPLE TON OR A NEWBIE YSING LINUX ,this is all I can’t and won’t be doing , using windows is not disappointing because SIMPLY it works , like number 6 first part is easy no . The second part WHY WOULD I DO IT ? FOR 5th you have to use R and gnu plot because libre office is well SHIT at at those , where as excel can do it natively. Wine does not make it better except for few program to be used in Linux, the tool intended to it’s work is HALF baked. Please try to do 1 and 2 in zorin and Pop is and see how far it takes to complete the process , If you want I can put I stopwatche and tell you time it took to do it in windows. Not to mention use of HDD , in windows i attach it and VOILA! Its the one I use it ACROSS ANY AND ALL APPS not a single mount -a-B–ë stuff I have to do .

Revolut, n26 try any bank whicubisbgood in online or the BIGGER names mostly has instant transfer, in my experience its the middle of road banks that are taking time .

Okay i been this with a lot Linux does not work if you are trying to use it at even likely advance stage

1. I can’t find where exe is
2. I can’t put that exe in start-up of system (tried it on zorin and pop os )
3. Wine won’t open lot of programs
4. Libre office has came long way but make a doc in libre office and tried to open in word later it’s a mess and can’t work that for CV
5. Excel is THE tool to be used in many cases, can’t be used powerfully in Linux.
6. There is need to use terminal multiple times for lot of things Linux is NOT useful, windows might be forcing but it’s a ripe operating system. Across all Linux distors even the shell is not same.

In EU, you need to use PayPal at all.bank transferes are instant, banks provide disponible debit cards , you can use Google pay Almost anywhere, which keeps your Privacy. Where is that you NEED to use PayPal in EU?

And guess what , when I asked what is replacing VPN as part of services, they say they don’t know and tried to move me over to 20 eur a month plan. So reducing the service and staying same prices …

I hate sygic for this, i bought lifetime för my part of World, and now it mails me every day to get subscription. never i will get it, every time i need it i will use cracked one. It was one of the good company, but now its just a nag.

Okay here is question , show me how in 1.ubuntu 2. Zorin os 3. Pop os . Starting from making a shortcut to a program, by finding whwre is the executable of program. It’s a rabbit hole

But thats the thing you do know it , its found with one Search and applicable to Alllllllll the machines running the WINDOWS os (albeit different version might be lillte different) but on “linux” os its not the same for each distro, and its not easy in some cases

So just to use Linux I have to stop watching netflix, prime , fine I don’t want to pay for inconvenience anyways. No games I want to play and weather is what I see out of window. But you see you give up small and easy things which IF one wants are there on Windows, even if I decide to emylate NFS I can’t do that on Linux . Don’t get me started on using HDD with Linux , plug and check every app if it’s available is that app ?? Whattttt i just want to plug it and use it via file browser in All apps without -f - u-c-k c

I came in to say bravo, Since day 1 on Lemmy i been hounded by Linux dude bros , whenever I say Linux is not possible I been down voted to hell.

Even as simple thing as putting a program in start-up is hassle and varies depending upon distribution, and I went on rabbit hole just like you said.

Even the friendlier(?) versions like pop os and zorin in 2024 and no where near to use ability as windows 95 is.

The worst thing is use of command/terminal , I simple just don’t want to use it at all, but not possible to do that STILL in Linux and dude bros keep telling me this is essential and their grandparents are using mint. This is believable only if they surf Internet and not do anything extra at all, that too since flash is dead , cause I have first hand experienced that I had to play with multiple command lines and what nots just to get YouTube working on Linux .

Linux is not ready to be used in home setting not unless it simplifies further as much as windows does AND has lot ofnsoftwarws availability. Think of something and thwr is software for it on windows , hardly the case for Linux ANY DISTRO.

now we await on Lemmy , for Linux dude bros to come out and defend Linux with 4% usage and down votes.

I was sleeping for fridge about a year ago, i didn’t find a single “smart” at all. Max tech was door ice and managed 🌡️ with digital dials

Do you know if

1. Having switch is without hardware modification of any kind? And
2. Can i play my “downloaded” copies of owned games on modified switch?

For smart tv there is smarttuve, its complete replacement of youtube and acts like youtube revsnced or youtube with ublocknon pc.teybit out

I have a question , there are 2 inputs i use to make a cover letter , 1. My resume and 2. Job description

How do you manage to mangler them together with chat gpt? Cause ibensure that its very specific to the job ALWAYS.

Hello, I would be greatful if I can do what you said I can do.

I strongly hope and wish you feel better.

At that level of money and wealth and living, you dont feel bad at all, cause everything is okay. He felt great just saying it and 1000 of people read it . Anybody who does no agreww with him is just small fraction of people who did not say anything, so its a win for him. You see this in most of the rich people, if there is strike going outside and of one of the operation manager just close the door of factory and contains it outside , its a win for them , unless something is not touching their money directly and helping them blind side problem its a SOLID win in their books .its like they can’t/don’t think that far. It’s side effect of ingot mine , so you can go away mentality, they become highly myopic

Hell forget about AutoCAD, what about word and EXCEL. now you and Linux dudebros will tell me there are alternatives on Linux like libre office and what not. To them I say this

1. Make a document in libreoffice , try to save it as docx and see what says libreoffice, or make a doc in word and adjust formatting, try to open same doc in libre office and see what shit show it becomes
2. Hand down no body can beat ms excel, on multiple platforms, the versality is not just complex formulas but functions like xlookup, index match , combined with VBA scripting with formulas that can low-key fight python , power tables are unparalleled, if you can replicate these without A SINGLE COMMAND line input for dumb users like us That would the win.

Linux dudebros think everybody can use terminal and everybody understand commands like rm-rf is a joke basically they think Linux is superior in every which way and millions people are just dumb that they dont use linux .

Or how about

1. You can’t easily define what apps start with startup
2. Even when wine is installed , lot of programs won’t run in wine
3. You cannot easily find where the program is installed like you can in windows
4. You attach a external disk but some apps won’t see it mounted making it Impossible to explore in their file picker , not all but some
5. There is almost huge lack of programs , for which there is huge possibility that a windows program exists.
6. There is constant need to use terminal for lot of things for which you can’t a program see point 4.

I keep telling Linux is still not for common home use for users who are in between power users and people only using it for browsing. This will get me downvotes here on Lemmy all the time . Linux edge lords are their own bubble.

Does not work on android with Firefox at all
