Perhaps this will wean people away from their atrocious software they've been foisting on the public for decades.
>>546144833for regular every day desktop use, Linux Mint is incredibly easy to install and use.There are no real barriers left for normalfags to switch to Linux anymore.and thanks to Valves investments and many open source projects you can play pretty much all games on Linux. sometimes with better performance than youd get on winblows.
>>546144926>muh LinuxLinux still can’t do thumbnails after over 30 years of development.
>>546144926Mint was great until it broke for no reason and no amount of troubleshooting would fix itAlso no ableton means Linux will never be my main os
>>546144972Yes it can, works on XFCE.
>>546144833Strange, thought they said all they needed was AI and H1Bs now.
>>546144833Faggot you don't even know how to write a line of code without autocomplete, blaming it on Indians who are currently running every major IT service in the world rn.
>>546144972imagine being this ignorant
>>546144833I've moved to Mac at home, but still feel forced to use Windows because muh gayming. Companies will take a VERY long time to move away from it. Even though you can get commercial support on Linux distros.

>>546144833>nowAnon...
>>546144972Last time I checked it can do RAW thumbnail.Still waiting for windows to do it.
>>546145072pure cope retard
>>546145072Maybe true for you but last time I checked my version of notepad++ don't have autocomplete.
>>546145070Dario Amadei has reassured us that the singularity superintelligence is working overtime on this problem and already committed 67 million lines of code to fix the crashing Outlook, saar.

>bro Linux can do thumbnails>you just have to spend 39 hours figuring out the packages to make it work sometimes oh and if any of the images are an unsupported format the whole thing crashes
>>546145029Nigger Ableton worked flawlessly via Wine for more than 15 fucking years, it's one of the least problematic programs to run on Linux.The MacOS port used to be just some fucking Wine wrapper.Maybe switch to Mac cause you're probably too retarded for Windows.
>>546145072I wish the black death on your mother, streetshitter.

>>546145100Moved to mac and Apple's whole ecosystem 3 years ago because of win 11 debacle. But, even Apple's software is getting shit ever since everythingOS 26. I don't know whether it is because Cook's greedy ass started hiring jeets or because Craig Federighi is near retirement and doesn't give a shit anymore. Though desu, Apple boomers will tell you that ever since Forstall left Apple's software went to shit. Once my Apple devices are unsupported (I've invested $10k in their hardware), I'm moving my ass to Arch Linux and flipping the bird to big tech forever. I'm fucking done with this man. All I want is a stable OS to browse YouTube and porn. I'm not asking the moon.
>>546144972thats a fair point of critiquebut things are going forward, and getting betterif only slowlyt. mint user
>>546144833Saar, fuck you bloody benchod bastard saar bloody fuck you
>>546145666Checkd and kekdJeet means victoryThread closed
>>546144833Anytime there is some issue like this, I always blame it on some stupid brownskin. I’m probably right too.
>>546144926installing in a new operating system is the barrier, you buy a new pc and you use whats installed on it which is mostly windows.Unless linux somehow manages to be installed on sold pcs they will never break big into the consumer market.
>>546145844I've been moving to FOSS solutions as much as possible because every single paid program or service follows the exact same trend. They start out good, they capture an audience and slowly they start giving you less while asking for more, the enshitification route is inevitable. I built a home server about 6 years ago and I've weaned off Microsoft Office, Google Drive, Google Photos, PLEX, TeamViewer etc. >>546145990I never found that argument convincing, people have spent decades using Windows and the moment they encounter something in Linux that doesn't work the way the way it does in Windows they get frustrated and give up. Which is a lot of things, there are fundamental differences all the way down to the way the files on the system are organised, if you've been taught to open the C:\ drive all your life a root partition is an alien concept.
>>546144833The Indians are of course the problem not policies that embrace vibe coding.
>>546145990you can buy linux mint USB sticks on ebay and amazonyou still need to know how to boot from USB, and all that other shit, though
>>546144833Still a pile shit but I did notice one change recently. They updated the widgets to remove all the unnecessary crap no one asked for. I use one to track a single currency and it would alternate between like 9 different pages showing me shares of selected companies and they used tiny clickable dots to represent each page so if you wanted to get back to the first page that has the currency you actually care about and you don't click the right place within a 2x2 pixel area it registers the click as you wanting to know more about this page and opens Microsoft Edge. It doesn't alternate anymore and the dots are gone. It just shows the information I actually give a shit about. All thanks to jeet hate.
>>546145853>>546146201Mint is perfectly fine for boomers like my dad, but I'd rather use a rolling release and a DE with support for modern features like HDR, VRR, fractional scaling etc. >>546146139Correct, the problem is indians.AI has already been used to patch thousands of bugs in the Linux kernel and implement optimisations, yet Microsoft jeets, who push AI harder than almost anyone somehow managed to fuck up their services and software more by using it.
>>546146139Microsoft has been a pile of shit for much longer than ChatGPT has existed.
>>546144833microsoft is just shit that comes with grandma's crappy home pc for free, barely works and is endlessly frustrating.any serious person or company that uses that shit is retarded.
>>546144833Unironically it's not even going to be the fault of jeet males. It's going to be black females.
>>546144972I go to maniceur to get my thumbnails done.

>>546144833Hiring third world brown trash to own the White people >What could go right
>>546145722Also depends on the driver. And whether you use X or Wayland? Intel AMD or Nvidia? Is your X root? Do.you use direct rendering or over the wire? You have no clue? Looser, lol.

>>546145100Mac is closest to flawless as a person can get.
>>546148152If that's true then we're in pretty dire straits.
>>546144926I work in IT and have a zoomer coworker who has been shilling Linux as an "unhackable" and "zero virus" OS. Then I asked him what he thinks about the chink that nearly went unnoticed for the .xz utils backdoor and he stopped pestering me about it.I guess if you have time to patch the endless issues he mentions then Linux is fine but at the end of the day I want to come home to a functioning computer if I have to use it. And Linux is not that. But my Windows is just a debloated Windows 11 so I don't have nearly the amount of jeet bullshit most normies do.
>>546145072The worst kept secrets about indian tech workers is that for every 100 of them running around trying to look busy, there's one hyper-competent White dude keeping things running. I've been in tech for over 20 years and the pattern never changes. indians are never brought in to build things or invent new shit. They're brought in after White guys have already done that work to do maintenance on things guys like me built. Which is why everything is turning to absolute shit.
>>546149138This. AI has just made jeets super over confident since they can now just order it around like some low class Dalit and take credit for its work
>>546147658true on thumbnailson the other hand, some modern games run faster on linux than on windows, even with wine/proton as a translation layer in-between, because linux as OS is often also more efficientand with wine, some legacy software and games even run, that dont run on windows anymorethe earlier you switch, the less you have to learn later
>>546149201>true on thumbnailsThat's a Mint, or rather a Cinnamon problem since it's a fork of old Gnome.KDE has had thumbnails in the file picker for ages, Gnome developers have their heads up their asses and stubbornly refuse to do what people ask for, which is where the meme came from.
>>546149104>but at the end of the day I want to come home to a functioning computer if I have to use it. And Linux is not thatits exactly that especially with a mainstream linux os like mint or ubuntu. it literally just fucking works
>>546145072>saar saar look us indians are ceo's!>india will be a pooper power by 2030!
>>546144833Meme is too clean. Totally unrealistic.
>>546144833Kill every single fucking Indian!I had to use outlook at work today but I couldn't.My entire day has been fucking ruined and wasted.fuck India.fuck Indians.India needs to be fucking nuked from space.
>>546149531Thats cool. When I hear the zoomer stop talking about how he had to spend 2 hours fixing things or how he had to AI code a custom image to reimage his computer every 3 or 4 months due to issues then maybe I will swap to Linux. Same way I have been saying I will maybe swap for 20 years when it is more stable.Linux never ever will be stable and useable enough outside of niche cases. Especially now that the age of White programmers is ending.
>>546145072>SAAAR YOU FUCKING BLOODY YOU BLOODYIndian girls fuck white boys for nothing and they get wet for white boys.
>>546149753maybe dont listen to zoomers when it comes to tech they are as retarded as boomers on that frontif some zoomer wants to larp has tech guy and waste his life with shit like arch linux let him be but shit like mint / ubuntu are very easy to use and work out of the box
>2026>normies still use OutlookThey deserve this
>>546149811Yeah but they come home and marry indian guys and have 10 kids each you bitch.
>>546149977fuck you, gypsy. I can't believe non-whites are still allowed to exist in 2026.

>>546150171I will stab your eyes out with a fork you stinking fucking jeet.
Mint is great for older devices. Anything that shipped with Win 10 at this point is a great candidate. Once you start poking around in there and realise you can achieve 90% of what you did on Winblows, there is no going back. Even my tech illiterate parents have no issues using it and it prevented them from wasting money on a new Win 11 spec device.
>>546150254you are the one shilling for microsoft a jeet company
>>546144926Tried to install it on a computer and got some kernel panic shit.Straight turd polished up to be "user friendly".
>>546150294another big plus is that most software on linux doesnt have ai forced down its throat. on windows i cant even fucking open a fucking pdf file without its lagging because it needs to have ai included that wants to summarize or convert my file
>>546150254Saar!
>>546150184That's not the right analogy, it's more like>Sticking with Ford despite how shitty they've gotten and avoiding all Asian brands including Toyota because you know one guy with a Kia Elantra whose engine threw a rod.
>>546145072I disabled it in vscode because the output was always wrong
>>546145072Isn’t that an argument against jeets tho? We see massive outages in the past few months now and since jeets make up the IT sector(according to your data) that would make jeets at fault for every outage and hack
>>546144833It’s gonna be a bad day to own Microsoft stock. And a good day to buy Microsoft stock if you don’t.
I've been using linux since 2010 and I don't even know what a kernel is but it just works
>>546149337and then theres that, yeah, its just a mint/gnome thingstill, mint is one of the current go-to distros, and despite this flaw, of something so basic, it still remains a go-to distrothat speaks for both sides of loonix, the bad and the good
>>546150751I used Mint for about 10 years as my main OS, but nowadays it's hard to recommend unless you have a very simple set up with one monitor and don't need fractional scaling, HDR or VRR.Nemo, while better than the Gnome file manager, is still not as good as Dolphin on KDE, and the file manager is something you use all the time. But both Cinnamon and KDE are sensible desktops that don't antagonise the user, in gnome you can't even right click and create a new text document by default, you have to add it as a template, it's this kind of arrogance that gets on my nerves.
>>546144833>announce 60,000 "voluntary layoffs">lose all your white American engineers with decades of institutional knowledge>hire a bunch of Indians>instantly everything breaksWOWWHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT
>>546150931i wouldve moved on from regular mint (debian->ubuntu->mint) if it werent for lmde (debian->mint)i just need something that has all the bells and whistles under the hood, while providing me with one-click installs, with semi-sane defaults... you know, like windows used to beeven pure debian with pick your own DE is too much work nowadays (and ive installed arch, thank you very much)you just get into that age, where you got shit to do on the PC, and dont want to fumble about fixing the PC
>>546150995I noticed they recently posted a job opening for C/C++ Azure engineer though. As in designing Azure itself, not apps within AzureAs for the outage, do you think some saar did the needful?
>>546150931i have been using *nix on servers and sbcs for over 15 years tried to switch the first time on desktop 10 years ago distrohopped a lot but came back to windows 4 years ago i gave it another trybecause at the time i was using centos and rocky on my server i started with fedoranuked that install by fucking up safe boot shims switched to cachyos and i have been using it since when i switched i decided i will try something different so i went with hyprland to try a tiling manager and i loved it and HDR and VRR work on loonix the HDR support is thanks to valve
I am going to get my ass chewed out by customers all day long for not responding to their emails and it's all because of the fucking JEETS

>>546151421Shut the fuck up you stinky retarded jeet. Everyone knows the score with your stunted weakling dalit race. You have never done anything of note in your entire history but poop and get steamrolled by like 3 British guys with muskets. Your poopskinned people are a blight on the world and the day is fast approaching when we expel your diarrhea tribe from our lands.
>>546151421>family emphasis on education/STEMWe know. Which is why it's so baffling that you guys are so fucking terrible at it. I've done audits on jeet code for companies as part of their compliance efforts and I would regularly see code so bad it was indistinguishable from intentional sabotage.

>>546151680I know. jeets are so delusional that they are basically beyond parody. I can't tell if this is really a jeet having a meltdown. Or someone taking the piss out of them. They're so ridiculous, naive, and childlike that it's literally impossible to tell lol.
