Because Shiny Things Are Fun - The New New Windows v Linux Thread

In fact, I have not paid for a full Windows license since the early 2000s. Turns out that computers mostly come with it. Surprise!

Ah, I see, you're just trolling. Fair enough.
You might as well make bolder claims: Didn't you know MS now owns Linux!?!?!?

Obviously, "if I have the choice between Windows and a poor Windows copycat, I'll choose the original" is "trolling" now.

This discussion ends here.

No, making that argument with no evidence apart from an allusion to systemd* (which you have no idea about*) and certain features of KDE** which you don't bother to state (and ignoring that KDE is one of many DEs) as well as the fact that the DE is not the OS is trolling.
If you actually want to discuss which features make Windows better, or even have some insight into what's wrong with the KDE choices then I'm sure people are willing to discuss.

*Or, more likely, you're seen the flame wars and thought it would be good trolling.
**Which is not the OS. Even if KDE were exactly like Windows shell the difference in underlying OS would be immediately apparent to anyone using it for any length of time.

FastBoot is just another name for hibernation.
Anyone with any sense turns it off and lives with the extra time a proper boot takes.

Please go away.

At least Windows users can spell correctly and don't have such a puerile attitude!!
I suspect a lot more people would use Linux if the community, or at least some of the ones seen on these forums, weren't so childish.

In my experience of windows and Linux users those statements can be applied to both groups.

I contend Windoz$$ is the biggest pile of sh** out...

At least I know which version of your/you're etc to use.

Lin$ux users fail at grammar. The not-so-smart people's OS.

Your funny, but seriously, dave could do with your help. So I will thank you for joining us again - mostly for the 'windoz$$ teams' sake more than anyone else's.

How is your bloatware going anyway?
