Linux runs on a LOT more different systems than Windows. The stuff it doesn’t run well on is mostly built into desktop computers, so that’s what the average user notices.

On Linux, all those drivers are already included in the kernel out of the box. Linux has much better hardware support than Windows in general, the only issue are proprietary drivers from third parties that don’t support Linux.

The year of the Linux desktop is already here, just not the way the geeks hoped. Most people do their everyday computing on phones now, most phones run on a Linux kernel.
Windows 11 comes with WSL, and the entire OS is mostly a front-end for Microsoft’s cloud services now, which run on Linux.

yes, that’s what I wrote.

FLOSS is Free Libre Open Source. To emphasize it’s free as in beer and as in speech.

14% of people can’t do anything more complicated than deleting an email on a computer.
26% can’t use a computer at all.

So right off the bat, 40% probably don’t even know what a chatbot is.

Somehow I’ve managed to commute to work on a bike year round for 10 years now, and I’m in a customer-facing role.
When it rains I wear rain clothes (jacket, rain pants and over-shoes). I also have full fenders and a chainguard on my bike.
If necessary, I ride in cycling clothes, carry my work clothes and some deodorant in a pannier, and quickly dry off and change in the bathroom when I arrive. It takes 5 minutes.

I’m not sure about the specifics in the Apple ecosystem but I imagine it’s like an email address that’s connected as IMAP on one main PC, and as POP3 on your phone.
You can download the mails you need to your phone to read them and answer them on the go.
But the mail server is synched to the PC. So deleting stuff on your phone just deletes the messages on your phone, not on the server and not on the PC.

Except he used the same account for his prostitute texting device as for the family pc.
It’s simple user error. You can’t have privacy from someone else who shares the same login.

On a scale of 1 to munchies, how high are you right now?

Go ahead, you can eat the mold off your walls, what’s the worst that could happen?

And if she bought crack with her own money, she should be free to use that, too.

Yeah but none of these use cases call for Windows 11.

pros:

• I don’t sit in a cage in the middle of a traffic jam 2+ hours a day
• When I get to work, I’m awake and in a good mood, when I get back home, I’ve left the work stress behind
• I’m actually faster door to door than in a car in rush hour traffic on my 8 mile commute
• It keeps me fit even if I don’t do any other sports
• It’s fun
• I can fix everything myself with a toolbox I bought for 40€
• My bike cost 1000€, 4 years ago, and I think I spent another … 30€ on it in all that time, for lube and tubes

cons:

• It can’t fully replace a car. Around once a week I need public transit for longer routes. Around once a month I have to rent a car, too.
• Bike lanes don’t exist or aren’t usable everywhere. In places without them you need some thick skin to deal with the incoherent rage of strangers who feel like your choice of vehicle threatens their entire lifestyle.
• Biking has become a political statement for some reason

From your con list, the only one that is actually true in my opinion is:

• little meaningful protection against severe injury
  (which is mostly a problem due to cars on the road)

All the other ones either simply aren’t true, or are only an issue if you’re starting out and haven’t figured out what’s important yet.

You also need an internet connection during setup to download drivers for your PC, or install Office.
What would you even do with a PC that never has internet access? (apart from controlling some machinery maybe).

The mosquitoes

Human-driven cars can be crashed with a brick, or a quart of oil.

Unfortunately the Pixel is the best phone for degoogling with the widest support of alternative ROMs.
The irony of giving money to Google in order to degoogle is pretty harsh.

This basically just keeps companies from using unlicensed Windows for business. Also, Microsoft does go after businesses who are unlicensed. They don’t give a fuck about private users cause that’s not where they’re making money.

Most of those Stackoverflow answers telling you you’re going at your problem the wrong way are correct, too.
