Windows is also a security nightmare for a myriad of reasons

hardware than is good start to check but just make sure you dont have to many startup apps they really eat startup time

and obviously it's entirely subjective and depends what you do with a computer

Performance-wise Linux runs a lot better since there's less bloat. Privacy-wise, the entire code is open source and free to audit. No backdoors here.

Yes, a lot of this comes down to what you value

i can't do my job without Windows so I use Windows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

But right now, the software library is literally the only reason I even entertain Windows, and that's shrinking by the day

if I was primarily a software developer I would absolutely main Linux

The only thing that handicaps me on my Linux laptop is processing power. Other than a few games, there's nothing I can't do on there that I can do on my Windows desktop

Exactly, linux appeals to software developers, it is made by and for power users and not the general user

and how is that an argument against anything?

Because it's a headache to anyone who doesn't write code all day anyway

if you don't want to use Linux, don't use Linux - problem solved 👌

You're the one defending it, not me

but sperging out at the mere suggestion of booting another OS to verify computer issues

is dumb as fuck

The only person sperging out is you

Sorry I offended your sacred OS

BIOS update and disabling fast boot didn't help btw

People are having different opinions than me on the internet and that is NOT OKAY

> sacred os

alright lad

what an asshole

Saw that

It's blowing up, which is good

Had to reboot, still waiting...

Ah, restarting your brain. Good trick

It's better than twidding your fingers

@turtwig dual boot master race

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I only use my home pc for steam

and need windows at work

no point in dual booting

I suppose technically my wife's iMac is dual boot

do you have a spare normie drive laying around? uninstall SSD then install the other drive than load windows on it then you now what is screwed @radeon

Mac are gay tho

but we only ever run Windows on there :P

@turtwig I have never found a need for Mac that couldn’t have been solved by using either windows or Linux
