The one kind of situational downside I can think of with Linux is how software distribution is so dependent on having an internet connection. Software on Windows tends to be self-contained and could be installed from disk easily because all of the dependencies tend to come packaged with the software. On Linux it's either 1) use the package manager, 2) run the .deb file (downloads dependencies) or clone the repo and build. On Windows, you might get a .zip file option with all of the .dlls included.

>Industry Standard
Define each usecase and you'll see come license shenanigans vs retraining budget calculations, or education specific vendor focus from the industry.
Your argument is akin to Windows and Nvidias partnership deals to become standard in the first place. Thus, an argument based on "industry standard" isn't really a viable argument to the software capabilities. Shady business practices eventually die to OSS.

Because the goal was to make it better for regular people, not graphical designers and architects.
And even if that was the goal, the software designers are the ones making in such a way to not run on linux, so it would be an exercise in futility.

First of all, Wine is not an emulator, look up what WINE stands for.

Their dedicated to their training workflows and refuse to adapt. Your example even shows you did it because you were already familiar with Blender, which I'm not chastising, but simply saying they get stuck in their ways and the partnership captures from "industry standards" through education institutions and said corpos.

Can it actually run the software in the OP or is it a "it can launch the software so let's count it as working, even if it would crash the second you try to do something" case?

I don't use it, but people do. They wouldn't if it didn't work. They don't currently have gpu passthrough, so that will affect the performance of any applications that need the gpu, but winboat is inevitable.
>>
>>107581361
>They don't currently have gpu passthrough, so that will affect the performance of any applications that need the gpu
Almost all these software use gpu extensively.
Until winboat has fixed that, these apps are in the "launches but can't be realistically used".
A 5 min render would become 8+ hours using CPU.

Missing Directory Opus from that list, along with countless other old or little programs that we'd use for specific tasks on windows. Anything I'd use for Source Engine stuff, converters, or stuff like Paulstretch comes to mind. If it can be emulated without crashing that'd be nice though.

Don’t forget they’re also engineers and architects who simply can’t use anything except the industry standard corposlop because they’re just that important but also their employer is so poor they can’t be supplied with a computer that has everything needed preinstalled and is a completely separate device from whatever they use to commission furry porn

>but also their employer is so poor they can’t be supplied with a computer that has everything needed preinstalled and is a completely separate device from whatever they use to commission furry porn
I was gonna say that maybe you could give them the benefit of doubt because perhaps they have a PC (or more realistically, if it's a creative field, a Mac) at work, but their employer provides nothing for whenever they have to take work home. But that would mean they're an architect/engineer who works on important projects, these projects are seemingly not important enough to the company to make sure their employees have all the tools needed (If working at the office isn't enough, then just providing a computer at the office isn't enough), and despite all this workload, they don't get paid enough to buy their own MBP
>>
>>107582313
With modern virtualization, any employee that can't remote in to specific office programs is lagging behind so far, I doubt they have any modern relevancy.
>>
>>107580486

>>107582313
protip: your employer gives you this thing called a “paycheck” every few weeks you can use to buy a computer, and if you use it for work you can claim it as a “business expense” to reduce the amount of “income” you have to pay “tax” on. You can do the same thing with whatever software is required to do your “work.” I’m aware these are unfamiliar words to you so please look them up when you get a chance
>>
>>107582565
My post literally ends with
>and despite all this workload, they don't get paid enough to buy their own MBP
Even then, if your work is truly important, your employer should be providing you everything you need to do it

It also does quite a few things better than Microsoft Office. Excel is what is making Microsoft Office stay relevant, and that's because of the training centers focus on it.

Even if linux has alternatives, the problem is that it's always some obscure 'it's kinda good enough if you'll learn terrible interface' kind of shit. If you work in a team your Gimp and Inskape shit files will be of no use to anyone.

This is just patently false. Elden Ring on Linux Mint runs at maybe half the frames it does on Windows 11 because the mesa drivers on Mint are so outdated. Meaning you practically need to run a rolling-release distro to have competitive frame rates.
>>107580486
The only reason I don't run Linux is because I'm not spending several hours with my PC out of commission because I need to reinstall every program on my computer in its Linux variant or find open source (bargain brand) alternatives to programs I use on Windows.

I obviously do not use Linux Mint for gaming, retards. Linux Mint is the most shilled distro by mainstream tech youtubers. The average person looking to switch not only has to contend with inferior programs and a less beginner-friendly interface but also has to pick the correct distro just to achieve parity with what they were using before. Is the average person going to go through all of that work when none of the people shilling for Linux even point out that stable releases are fuck awful for gaming because Linux can do no wrong?
