unplug my main computer ethernet cable and plug it into my secondary computer because it's not filled with child porn and meth recipes

?
I literally just downloaded a .deb and loaded it onto my tablet without internet by just double-clicking it the fuck you going on about
>>
>>102422852
being able to do this is like a miracle. The last time I tried installing a deb file without internet access I was downloading like twenty other deb files that were dependencies.

It is actually an issue, OP makes a valid point

That said, things like AppImages are coming around enough to offset the issue.

Windows respects the user, Linux does not. That's the difference.

>>102422763
i just got the drawpile appimage and it ran when i clicked it tho.
>>

>dumb nigger award.jpeg
windows doesn't respect the user in the slightest, not without tinkering with it loading two dozen scripts every boot
>>
>>102422907
Yeah appimages pretty much solved this issue ages ago

ok dad

Gee, I wonder why drawpile didn't need to download additional libraries?

I'm not happy about browser OSs being the future were going to or the slow death of local storage, but that's the direction that computing is heading.
Speaking of, why would anyone install drawpile without an internet connection? I mean, maybe you're setting up a system to be connected later but drawpile is pretty much for a connection to the net. Unless you're doing a LAN session of drawpile, which is weird. There's much better programs for drawing offline.

Then why are you using Linux?

many such cases

It's really interesting how the linux people love tinkering with their distro, but are completely oblivious about tinkering with windows and how perfect you can get it with a few steps.

It's like... it's fine that a linux distro isn't how you want it, you need to shape it yourself... but windows? Nah that shit needs to be perfect right out of the gate or I'm not getting it.

Makes one wonder about their mental state, is all

I'm pretty sure linux is a honeypot made by masons at this point

>>102423468
Telemetry?
Privacy?
Microsoft Spyware?
Secretly downloaded Software?

Windows does not respect its user. It treats them like retarded babies, putting them pills they don't want to take to make them even more retarded.

Most general Linux distros respect their users, they make them know exactly is in their computer. No bullshit, no Spyware.

Indeed, lurk moar

>if a linux distro isn't tailored perfectly to you, it's fine! Tinkering and customising it is part of the experience!
>if windows isn't tailored perfectly to you then IT'S BAD!!!! NO TINKERING SHOULD BE REQUIRED FOR WINDOWS

always with the dishonesty
Win 10 enterprise LTSC + debloat tool + registry editing >>>one time only<<< and it's the perfect OS. But of course... no tinkering allows with windows
