I mean for one it supports a lot less hardware. Second it's significantly less reliable. Third it has thing like Co-Pilot built-in. I don't know how people aren't criticizing it more frankly.

Serious question what are you using all that RAM for? I am having a hard time justifying upgrading one of my laptops to 32 GiB, nevermind 64 GiB.

While it's possible to cause significant damage from a single overdose I don't think it is likely from trying something at a sensible dose once. Most of the time the damage addicts have is done through repeated heavy use.

Yeah that's immediately what I thought whem reading it. The company did the right thing, it's the government who wouldn't listen to reason.

I don't think something needs to be identical to Windows to be a good replacement for it. I think there should be a replacement for Windows, and distributions like Linux Mint are that replacement for some people.

I also think that parts of the Linux ecosystem have major problems. Not necessarily problems with the kernel itself, but problems with the surrounding software like programs and user interfaces. Wider application support would be a start. Some distributions and parts of modern Linux systems can be unnecessarily complex or downright esoteric. Some features like HDR have very poor support, and are difficult to enable/setup where they are supported. It's also difficult for developers to publish to Linux because of the wide variety of different Linux systems. Flatpaks and snaps help with this obviously but have divisive in the Linux community for one reason or another.

I did manage to switch to Linux. I can understand though why people are hesitant, there are still things that are tough in Linux, or near impossible in some cases. That's despite having used Linux on and off for years.

Point being I've used tech from the era before smartphones.

My bad

My original instance was actually discontinued. Anyone remember FMHY?

Which country do you live in? This sounds like something that could never happen in the UK or US as divorce is extremely common. I'm pretty sure you would have to have done something bad in order to be ousted here. Like abusing your partner would do it, not just divorcing them.

Also legally changing your name is fairly easy, I am sure if you talked to your University you could get them to update the records. Chances are though it would show up in a background check.

NixOS isn't bad but your right it could be explained better.

Not everyone lives in the US. Here in the UK College and University are very different things.
