  • Are you saying they should install Linux?

    I know Rufus has options to modify the Windows image before writing it to your USB stick but AFAIK Balena can't write Windows images.

  • Can you imagine installing Windows and having to install 10 seperate programs just to fix all the issues with it?

  • That's an interesting take and sure makes sense to me. And I recognize it in a way.

  • Ubuntu has an even better approach. It updates silently while you are using it. Then your tab crashes. And when you retry it tells you to restart firefox. Truly genius *cheffs kiss

  • This sounds like a lot of my experiences with Linux. Before I went back to Ubuntu which mainly solved the specific issues I had. Not saying it will solve someone elses.

  • I like my version better.

  • Exactly. If the car can be broken into that easily, it's the car company's fault.

  • I am not saying you fire some hiring manager but I'm saying fire who is responsible for hiring more people than you need. Clearly someone is not doing their job properly or you wouldn't get these mass firings.

  • So they've hired too much people and now they need to let them go. Why doesn't this have consequences for the people hiring in the first place? It is your responsibility to adapt to market changes but when you mess up, your head is not on the line?

  • What the.. do they not use templates for their designs of the covers?

  • I do love that US radio stations actually look like they did in the cartoons, with a massive tower with red blinking lights next to the building.

  • Or they might not know what country code to use since some of that AM stuff gets broadcasted really far.

  • The firefox looks more like foxkeh from the old japanese firefox site.

  • I'm gonna go with... no u.

  • I wish howtogeek would change back to their old ms paint logo.

  • That way you'll know you've run out of physical memory when the cd-rom starts spinning up.

  • Oh wow, I did not know that.

  • Yes, it seems Elementary is focussing a lot on delivering an Apple-esque experience.

    Some prefer that. But there's also ones that look more like Windows. Or there are blends. And you can always modify one thing or an other if you feel like you've become more accustomed with your distribution of choice.

  • I'm a little late to the party but I'm using Ubuntu myself. There are a handfull that are pretty good for starters. Ubuntu and Linux Mint are probably part of those. And I see others have given you some advice on good ones as well.

    I would suggest to not just jump off the deep end but maybe make it a dual boot or install it on a spare computer. It's probably also usefull to make like a list of applications you're using in Windows and see if they're available on Linux. And if not, what alternatives there are. It helps if you are willing to try some alternatives to your daily applications when they are not available in Linux. But worst case scenario there are a lot of Windows applications that can run inside Wine in Linux.
