All it's been doing for at least the past 15 years is throw an error message. Because there really isn't any reason you'd want to do that on purpose.

but never with the options switch around

Life pro tip: always put the force flag first on any command line you write (that has such a flag), to ensure that it's the first thing seen by everyone (including your future self) reading that command line.

Why stop there

curl $windows_iso_url | sudo dd of=/dev/sda bs=4M && sudo sync; sudo reboot

(Do not run this)

I built an entire theatre using Linux. Architect was on autocad, that was alright, but engineering was on vectorworks & there I had to ask for .dxf exports.

Qlab (macos) is 100% a no-go, I actually own a macbook just for this piece of software.

Isadora runs on wine, but video play is problematic. Isadora is a video mapper/VJ/mixing software.

Of the big three of lighting console software, only Chamsys' MagicQ runs on Linux. Infuriating when you know Grand MA consoles are linux-based. ETC? Don't ask.

It's niche (how about Enttec or DMXKing interfaces configurator?) but it's my niche. I survive doing things differently, and, yes, owning a dual-boot AsahiLinux/MacOS device.

Digitally sign a PDF with a couple of clicks.

So far, I have spent about 6 hours (sporadically over the past 3 years) trying to set up a way to do this, yet ultimately it didn't ever work at all. And every time I end up using some online third party service just to get it over with.

I did it on Windows once and the setup was a simple 5 step wizard. After which digitally signing a document just works with a couple of clicks.

Bonus round:

• on Linux there is only one PDF viewer that implements tripple click for selecting a whole line AND can invert the colors of the document (which helps some partially blind users). That viewer is Atril and it has no way of even attempting to digitally sign a PDF. As soon as you want to do the signing, you lose those one of the two features and people with impairments can't do their work properly.

• the screen readers have voices from the 90s and setting up anything modern with them is above my skill grade - as again, I fucked with it for days and didn't manage to get a natural sounding voice to work. On Windows it is way simpler, including working well for mixed language documents - for example German text with technical terms in english or latin.

Software and hardware support definitely counts.

I would also guess that probably a lot of Microsoft enterprise stuff like active directory group policies likely aren't supported well, but I don't have enough knowledge to back that up.

Run 3dsmax.

doesn’t help when you have “Arch BTW” types that like the mystique that myth gives them

Agreed. Both are true.

Not really but it's still misinformation.

misinformation != desinformation

Both exist plenty...

Yes it is, you may not be a liar but still spread lies unknowingly.

But i guess at the end of the day it depends on its creator. If it was intentional then its a lie if not then its misinfo
