I used Crucial brand in both my desktop and my laptop upgrades a few years ago (I don’t remember the exact model…mx500 maybe?) And I haven’t had a single issue.

Absolutely rock-solid.

This makes me suddenly want to re-watch Half and Catch Fire

Some programs still relying on python2 when the operating system has long since upgraded to python3.

Not really an issue per se, I just had to switch those apps over to using the flatpak version which would have it installed as needed. (I’m looking at you GIMP)

Yes. Haha. Amusing. But really…Blender, Davinci Resolve, and a host of others. It’s not a hobby, it’s quite literally a (albeit small) portion of my income.

And it has nothing to do with anime nudes.

Anime/waifu is literally for pedos wanting a loophole. Sorry, not sorry.

I’m simply stating that the “year of the Linux desktop” hasn’t really arrived because most of its increase in market share comes from something that isn’t used as a desktop at all by 99.9% of people.

Look…I use Linux. I love Linux. But let’s be honest. That 4 percent is largely due to the steam deck; a gaming handheld where the vast majority of users don’t know (or care) what operating system it uses as long as they can play their steam games on the go.

That’s not “year of the Linux desktop”, because it’s not a desktop. It just has one hidden under the hood if you want to dig past the steam layer (which, as I said…the vast majority of users never will)

The year of the Linux desktop won’t arrive until there is sufficient market share that software manufacturers are inclined to support us natively. That won’t happen with a gaming handheld because no one would want to use a gaming handheld as a daily driver.

Sorry to be a wet blanket, folks. Downvote away…
