Sirs why is Linux so superior?
>>
>>107000571
windows needs those resources to send your data straight to mossad/CIA. cool it with the antisemitism.
>>
>>107000571
Because Tux was luckily gifted with the trait of not being a retard. So Tux went and made these beautiful distributions for you that don't use a lot of resources and is superior in every way.

Sounds like that dumb Apple advertising campaign where they said MacOS is twice as memory-efficient as Windows, so soldering only 8GB into their $3,000 laptops is no big deal.

i ran jewbuntu 20.something on a macbook from 2006?2007?
core duo with 4 gigs of ddr2 possibly
it wasnt fast by any means but it was serviceable
>>
>>107000606
if the data is just being sent then wouldn't they not need the resources?
>>
>>107000680
windows users also pay for the privilege of being part of a botnet

4GB is way more RAM than you need for posting screenshots of your desktop.

linux has no useful programs that would require a lot of ram.all linux programs are single function only. the old mainframe batch processing thinking.
>>
>>107000571
its very efficient on linus cause you dont do anything except for browse 4chan and complain about windows
>>

>4gb of ram in linux
>kernel keeps closing what i'm doing in the terminal to recover memory instead of closing firefox
god
damn it
>>
OP isn't true if you're a real computer guy
fake computer guys, zoomers don't know how to close programs, don't know how to disable programs from starting up, background apps
I use Windows on 3rd gen i5 with 8gb RAM for 40-50 hours a week at work and it's fast as fuck. HDD too.
>>
>>107001077
Sounds like you need a RAM upgrade. Time to get more than 2gb.

Linux is not superior. If you configured Linux to do all of the things Windows does it would take more RAM. You are retarded. Windows is the superior OS.
>>
>>107001249
Windows has a lot of shit people don't want. The problem is you're not allowed to disable it (microsoft edge is the big one)
that being said I use windows constantly (and linux) but don't act like Windows isn't shoveling shit, it is
>>
>>107001402
>Windows has a lot of shit people don't want.
I mean, for the most part, the bloat that windows has is dormant. Not being able to uninstall Edge is so inconsequential that it's hard to take linux fags seriously. being able to uninstall core components of the OS and bricking yourself is not a flex.

Windows is generally safe and just werks, which is a massive accomplishment in it's own way. I'll take a little bloat over linux any day.
>>
>>107001456
>Safe
No OS is safe, and no, third party corporate bullshit running at ring 0 is not safe at all
>It just werks
Windows still pollutes itself over time and updates, one of the most basic tasks an OS should do, are a pain in the ass for 99% of windows users, at least Linux distros are honest and let you pick your poison with the different kind of releases.
>>
>>107001456
the fact that a "core part" of the OS is anti competitive is one of the reasons it sucks
and where I work, if an update comes in when I'm not there... I come back and EDGE is default browser, BING is default search engine because the zoomers and women just click YES YES YES
of course this never happened on my windows 10 gaming PC
but the fact that they pull that shit off is gay
>>

Hard. Fucking. Redpilled. Truth. Nuke.
I've been testing several Linux distros since all the windows10 debacle. And I came to the conclusion that Linux isn't necessarily faster nor more efficient than windows. Both use way too much RAM and in some instances windows has a better management than some distros.
My vanilla Windows 10 Pro full bloat full telemetry test laptop uses 1.8 gb of RAM at idle, while most distros I've tested use near 3.0 gb at idle. In an OS that's supposed to be lightweight and spyware free.
However, that's not to say I prefer Windows over Linux, on the contrary. But it's time to stop pretending Linux is a perfect OS when there's things windows does better.

>>107000571
if linux is so superior why can't they fix whole system freezing when out of memory
