I’m not a programmer and I’ve been dual booting for 25 years.

Linux works for roughly 80% of what I do. The BIG missing piece is audio production. The software is mostly okay, it’s the actual audio system that’s the problem. Audio on Linux sucks big floppy donkey dicks. Yes, I know all about JACK (complicated and never works the way you think it should), RT kernels, Pipewire, etc. It’s all terrible.

I am a meat popsicle.

Krita has a better brush engine and the AI plugin is amazing. The live AI painting with layers is so cool. It’s like magic

I’m not on YouTube shouting about it, though.

I’d argue that it really doesn’t matter. Linux has taken over everything else. And the more MS fucks up, the more likely people will look for alternatives. I do believe many will go to Mac, but Linux is clearly picking up some of the slack as well. Microsoft wouldn’t be the first tech company to take a tumble. Never say never.

Because he’s obnoxious and so sure of his bad takes as if they’re fact, as opposed to shit opinions. Did I mention he’s obnoxious?

I can’t stand this guy. That has nothing to do with the video, other than I probably won’t watch it because of how much I dislike him.

So? It’s funny.

Idk what age your dad is, but I’m 53 (gen-x) and my generation are notorious for being difficult to market to. Maybe he just blanks it out, like an automatic mute button. I used to do that but ads are far too mentally disruptive for me these days. I’ve had enough.

I despise ads. I can’t even bring myself to watch Netflix or Amazon Prime. If there is advertising, it ain’t worth it, no matter how cheap.

No. Not unless you want a nasty-gram from your ISP.

I should be able to use it like a proper computer that can run full-fat applications, with a monitor, keyboard, mouse, etc. Everyone loves to go on about how powerful phones are, so then why can’t I use that power?

Gnome might as well be proprietary with their shit attitude.

Nice additions. Shotcut is the editor I settled on because Kdenlive and Openshot…cut(?) we’re just too unstable and crashy.

Has anyone here ever tried punching themselves in the dick repeatedly?

This! Mobile operating systems are trash, and there’s no good reason for it. I always see people parroting the same nonsense, “you have the power of a super computer in your pocket”. Okay, then why can’t I use it like a supercomputer? It’s all crippled toy versions of the desktop applications, social media garbage, or microtransaction stuffed toilet games.

I’ve reinstalled a few times throughout the years, simply because I didn’t want to deal with fixing something, mainly a bloated mess with multiple desktops. Sometimes it’s faster to back up home and nuke it from orbit.

No matter how stupid the management is, I’ll still use FF over Chrome. Even so, Mozilla is lost in their own bullshit. That “workshop” is like some crap from kindergarten. Just make a good browser ffs. They can’t get it through their thick skulls that the browser isn’t the destination, it’s the means to getting there.
