Thank you! I’m a staunch believer that most of you don’t think about how much prior knowledge you need just to be able to use Linux, let alone not break things.

IDK I would say 3d monitors are a trend that died pretty hard
What does that do?
That’s some STD right?
How many times does the public have to learn if the CEO says it, he probably doesn’t know what he’s talking about. If the devs say it, listen
Linux is pretty green at least
I find moonlight/sunshine work better, also available on android tvs
I’m not a dev, but don’t they have like a/b updates or at least test their updates in a sandbox before releasing them?
Either way it’s a good thing, a major company unionizing could lead to the whole industry unionizing
Of course, none of us would actually do that, but what I’m trying to say is that’s the threshold. For linux to become mainstream like plenty of users on here seem to vehemently believe, it HAS to start taking cues from windows, that means easier install methods, dumbed down and less terminal based procedures, and more support from mainstream and less open source software manufacturers. Otherwise the average person is going to look at linux and say “that looks hard.” full stop.
And I would reckon a lot of those changes would not go over well with current Linux userbase
Bet, go ahead and grab your parents or the nearest old fart you know who isn’t tech savvy and try to get them to install linux, libre Office, and thunderbird and attempt to use it.
$100 says they won’t make it through using rufus without help
This is absolutely the attitude he was just talking about, you can’t agree, then add a “but”
Linux is not the fix for all that ails you, and it’s especially not the fix for non tech-savvy people, which as a reminder, is most people. Lemmy is not a good baseline for this because we’re all savvy enough to get onto the fediverse in the first place, which in itself is very confusing if you’re non tech savvy or coming from a place like reddit, where things are so fundamentally different.( Which i know for a fact most of you have experienced at some point)
I mean does it matter if you’re frank and say "its happening because you didn’t pay? Its not like they can go to the cops or something
That’s a really dick way to respond to that post
Okay thats great, but now I don’t have simple options like fan settings and thunderbolt control, did my $3000 laptop just get neutered?
I doubt it, this repair was just a keyboard assembly, I’ve done the repair myself, there’s no reason to replace the mobo, also the bios that’s listed in the downloads section is this old one. Which wouldn’t even be a problem if I still had the option to do certain things
E17M1IMS.119, as far as i can tell thats click bios 1, i can’t seem to find much documentation on it, and that build was last released in 2023
nah looks like im up to date on windows and most of my drivers
Well now I wanna hear more about the history of this mystical shit button
