Also, how the fuck could you have been a freetard in the win7 era especially when the proprietary team had literally the best, no bullshit aryan-written software mankind will ever produce. Win 7, adobe cs6, etc
>>
>>100153948
So fucking true

People have no idea how little open-source projects are used at all in the industry. Can barely name a few that are actually used at all. Most of tech is on closed-source because that's where the money goes and that's where good shit is made, not free shit for poors.
>>
in ten years your favorite closed source program will be unrecognizable and they'll have failed three attempts to buckbreak you on a subscription.
in ten years your favorite open source program will be identical to how it is today with a slightly higher version number.

>>100154094
Only zoomers would fall for Linux shill tactics considering you've been saying the exact same things about how desktop Linux was acceptable a decade ago when it was demonstrably false. Desktop Linux is barely adequate with GAYMING so you can finally rope in a few zoomers with no memory of what it was like before.

OK NSA cuckold why do you keep using windows after win 7 I can not wait for the cope.

You can not even install it on modern hardware!

>>
>>100155949
you actually can install win7 just fine on modern hardware, not that you should, of course
CPU and chipset support can be bodged
GPU drivers are available ror relatively recent models
even NVME works if you have the drivers for it
>>
>>100153999
Nice digits so here's a tip. It's a samefag.
>>
>>100153948
Images should be unironically reversed. I can install and use every mainstream linux distro without tinkering and ever using the terminal, it all works out of the box. On the other side using windows without running at least 5 debloat scripts, configuring shit in the terminal and editing registries is unbearable.
>>

Win 7 was shit which you would know if you understood anything about operating systems apart from "i like aero skin"

i find it really odd how many anti-FOSS threads crop up here, when 4chinz is supposedly majority American, and anyone who believes in the American ideals of capital F Freedom and crafting your own success would be naturally drawn to free software
as such, i'd like to present the hypothesis that all anti-FOSS posters are freedom hating vermin and enemies of the US and her people
>>
>>100155972
>you actually can install win7 just fine on modern hardware,
I like to try this one day.

>on modern
I'm 100% SURE modern GPUs will not work under win7 or give you a cucked version that is without the real power of a GPU.

>I do not play ge........
GPU for AI.
Your argument is invalid.
>>
>>100156040
CUDA is probably borked, that's true
working drivers for gay ming are available on at least 3xxx series cards on the nvidia side, though they're pretty old
recent games still run fine with them assuming you don't run into issues with dx12 only titles
>>
>>100156071
While I like win7 and have it on a older machine...
Why not get over to linux at this point? Try linux mint.

This is why LIBRE is superior to proprietary.
See where you ended with windows?
This is what you get if you worship proprietary.

Ubuntu tried to pull spyware shit and people simply jumped ship to a different distro this is why linux fragmentation IS A GOOD THING.

In windows you either update to the new version or you can go fuck yourself.

jokes aside, anyone know of actual open source car software/controller? as it stands I will never own a modern car unless some autist manages to completely wipe anything proprietary from it (disabling the internet is an ok-ish solution but I'd rather not even have a crippled jew running my car)
>>
>>100154740
its more similar to choosing were do you want to get shot, in the foot or in your hands
if you choose linux you will not have telemetry or BS but professional grade software wont work and there is a bunch of quirks that dont make any sense
if you choose windows you will have a stable experience and access to the bigesst amount of software out there, but you will have a bunch of shit that microsoft put there to make money
>>

This is absolutely false. Windows is worse than Linux now.
>>
>>100157567
i have never seen any proof of that and windows is very stable in my experience so i asume you are making it up, there is plenty of videos of linux shitting itself up too, kde crashing even become kinda of a meme

So you've never used Linux and you're just making shit up? In my experience (actually using it myself), Windows fucks itself up all the time, while I can't remember the last time I had to fix a Linux machine.
>>
>>100157791
>So you've never used Linux and you're just making shit up?
i actually did for a few months, i used about 3 different distros in that time period, well, technically 2 because the first one struggled to install for some reason, the second one deleted its own DE, the last one lasted the most but at that point i got tired of linux
>Windows fucks itself up all the time, while I can't remember the last time I had to fix a Linux machine.
do you have anything to back that up? millions of people use windows and it just works for them, i find it hard to believe that "it fucks itself up all the time", if that were true i think people would say so
i mean, people complain about telemetry and we both can agree that it is a problem
>>
>>100153948
If all of the closed source faggotry really was akin to a Tesla Model S Triple Electric Engine, etc, it would have been very nice, despite the fact, that even Tesla has drawbacks, but only people who drove it would know, amiright? Anyway. Unfortunately, we do not live in a world of fantasy. and most of the closed source software is total fukken shite, that is also completely inflexible, and that people can't even get proper support for. All while open source is getting better and better over the years. What was the last time you have paid for an internet browser, you fagget? Do you use Notepad++? Are you using VLC player? Is it LibreOffice? Shut it, nigger, tech literate people always use some kind of open source software.
>muh win7
overrated. I hate newfags so much its unreal.
>>
>>100153999
>in ten years your favorite open source program will be identical to how it is today with a slightly higher version number.
I disagree. Gnome and all the programs it shipped were god-tier before version 3, now it's all unusable mac-wannabe hipster shit with no features. This trend will continue into the future as more and more open source devs take cues from proprietary software development culture in the way they design software and treat their users.

win7 wasn't actually that good, it's just shilled here by nostalgic retards
on the other hand, I used ubuntu in the win7 era and it worked fine. gnome2 was actually a pretty comfy ui, it only went to shit with version 3
