If I want to break my computer I should be able to break my computer!

That's right! By worshipping the almighty penguin he gives us the power to make our expensive computers into useless novelty items.

Look, if we want to spend 6 hours rebuilding our MBR/GPT, bootsector, and efi partition from scratch, using our grandfather's butterfly, we should be allowed to. Insert angry xkcd here.

Dave Plummer is a fricking legend!

I'm amazed Windows is allowed to pull some of it's shit, but the US doesn't seem real keen on anti monopoly anything anymore.

Let's be honest. If you haven't broken your bootloader at some point in time, you haven't experienced Linux.

[-] darthpenis69@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I've broken my bootloader many times. I remember frantically looking up how to fix that online for the first time. Now I know not to do stupid things that could bork my bootloader.

This meme is such a good representation of the general difference between the two systems.

[-] cuantar@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

This kind of thing is a huge part of why I fell in love with Linux so long ago.

[-] adinfinitum@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Customizing your system to the point that no one else can use it?

[-] cuantar@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

lol, no. Being able to do what I want with it is what I have appreciated. It's like having a computer without that obnoxious glue in the screws so you can take it apart if you want to.

I'll never forget when I was just learning about Arch and I installed it sharing the same NTFS directories as Windows. It didn't work great.

You really can't uninstall edge in Windows? I knew that was a thing with IE back in the day.

[-] darthpenis69@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

You can uninstall the newest version of edge in Windows. The newer edge is chromium based and it seems you can remove it now. However the previous version of edge that was built into windows could not be removed with traditional methods.

[-] rcmaehl@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

You can't uninstall edge without breaking things such as start menu search, widgets, bing AI, The upcoming co-pilot, and a lot more. I've personally been battling for people by creating MSEdgeRedirect, but there's been two to three attempts to break the project so far.
