Actually, if Linux/BSD/… doesn’t work the way I want it to, I can always tweak it. Win or Mac? Tough luck. So Linux’s usability is always there, whereas the proprietary OS’s quickly hits a very hard, annoying wall.

Soo, booting your computer from someone else’s computer?

I mean we’ve had thin clients and PXE for ages?

I had the Mandrake Powerpack that came with two books. I basically memorized the entire console handbook while on the loo…

Gretlat that they’re making progress! aTM windows still flicker or fail to show content. I’d love to use it in production later this year maybe …

I am dependent on a couple of programs I run via wine - and wine still isn’t directly compatible with wayland and buggy with xwayland…

It’s actually worse! Last jan Microsoft bricked the entire fleet of laptops in my company with a borked generic driver update. It overwrote the sd reader’s vendor driver blocking all storage access from working whatsoever. From one week to another more or less all devices refused to boot. They basically killed our entire company for half a week, until IT could walk people through efi-disabling the sd reader in every laptop (recent industrial models mind you) just because windows had pulled in the wrong driver. So… no - it’s not great at all with automatic driver installation in windows …

How on earth can people stand using Windows full time? Everything I’m on a Microsoft product I feel claustrophobic!

If AMD was able to come to the bright side, so can Nvidia. There’s still hope, ye faithful!

Duplicity (cli) with deja-dup (gui) has saved my sorry ass many times.

Blackberry used to have a “global device search” feature. I’d love something like that for Android.

I’m daily commuting via train. There are USB chargers everywhere in the cars, so this is pretty significant. And don’t tell me to buy another wireless gadget I have to charge before I go - or some USB buds that won’t work with my other devices, since USB-C is just a plug, not a Standard.
