That’s every IT guy. When I’m done with work, I’m sick of doing things right. If it works it’s fine. Where’s my duct tape

This has been a trope since Linux existed.
"Linux doesn’t work with my hardware*
“Well, just spend hundreds or thousands on new hardware so you can run this free OS!”
That’s ok too. If you’re not comfortable in the cli you can switch to a more gui focused windows distro. Most of the same functionality is there.
What if I told you you can create and set a registry entry with a single line of powershell
Boss/teacher: Is your project ready to present yet?
Linux user, still tweaking colors and theme options in their DE after 4 years: Let me finish setting up my device!
No, I mean NT. Why would I use a pre-releaee name from 30 years ago?
it still makes use of absolutely braindead DOS design/features/limitations because of “backwards compatibility”
Like what? Aside from drive letters (which are being slowly sunset in favor of mounting to directories like *nix) I don’t see a lot of legacy stuff from the 8 bit era
Linux has better backwards support for DOS
Via dosbox, which is also available for windows. I wouldn’t call “exactly the same, using the same exact emulator” better.
No it isn’t. NT was written from scratch, with no legacy DOS code. The last version of windows that was an “MS-DOS hybrid system” as you described was ME, 25 years ago.
It should change it back eventually if you didn’t disable setting the clock from Microsofts ntp servers
Linux for life.
Then you’re clearly not dual booting and this advice wasn’t for you
Windows sets the hardware clock to local time, Linux sets it to UTC. It’s possible to tell one to respect the others preference
There’s a list of locked files under shares in computer management
I really doubt they’re wasting time astroturfing a Linux community on Lemmy. You’re not going to convince hardcore devotees with a meme.
I’ll remember that the next time someone makes a post like “why did apt upgrade install the snap version of Firefox”.
Does your bank have a Linux application? Of course not, you’re using the website. So why not use the website on your phone?
It took more to install a proprietary one on windows.
What did it take? For most windows users it takes double clicking an installer and clicking yes half a dozen times
I’ve found them pretty easy tbh. I’ve admined everything between 2003-2019 professionally and I have a handful of 2022 machines in my home lab. Stick with R2 releases and it’s p stable. Usually when something goes wrong it just needs a good kick, not major surgery.
