cmon dude, i use windows but even i know it is not the best. linux has some strengths that outshine both windows/osx especially in server and lightweight operating system that you can construct from the ground up. having a lean system with your choice of packages is very sexy but i am a fuccboi who is addicted to league of legends. so i stay with the botnet.

I run Windows 10 on a Thinkpad T61 and it doesnt even lag. Meanwhile Open Sores Linsucks is a pita to install. Last time I tried to do it with Lubuntu 15.04, the installer didnt work because of some shitty bug with LUKS.
If Linsucksers ever want to get a good, they should do some quality testing with their shit and have more manpower testing their software before they release it.
And dont even get me started on Arch and other hobby distros that serve no real purpose other than "lol I have too much free time"

You have to be dedicated to struggle and fight with your OS like that
Shit and they have to pay over 100 bucks for it.

>>51821155
its not about lag, its an ocd where you have unwanted applications and packages that you cannot remove normally. using powershell is an easy way out but prior to 1511 it bricked my system so I did not try it again.
i am having frequent stuttering in games and audio playback which i did not experience on windows 7 or linux. it has its downsides but i am using it anyway because no other alternative.

Yeah because mass production in open source drivers is not always perfect. You must remember that to use the software costs $0.
Microsoft has billions a year come from their software. They also pay supporting companies to produce supporting software for their software. That is if the companies requiring support don't flash Microsoft money to say they are support through "testing".
Do people not remember that linux IS A FUCKING PROGRAMMING OPERATING SYSTEM. Linux is not designed for non programming dickheads. Regardless of what flashy looks and shitty bloatware they put into it.

Genuine question about open source.
If something is open source and anyone can add to it, what's stopping someone from adding malicious code onto it?
>>51827381
They'd have to convince you to download their fork
This is actually a problem, but it has to do with people adding beneficial code and malicious autistic faggots from upstream saying "it doesn't fit our ridiculously autisitc design goals, even if supporting it changes nothing"
See: gnome removed transparency from VTE and won't expose some already existing text-selection functions, so now you have vte and vte-ng. Your distro's autistic faggots might be in bed with gnome faggots and tell you to compile vte-ng yourself. Isn't that great?

Like with Vuze, I've used WinRAR a little bit before, and it seemed way bloated compared to 7zip.

The current Windows GUI is counterproductive, I had to fuck with mine for a while before I got it to where it's usable and not just some crap that was made with "devices" having a priority over PC in the design process.

Yeah nah bro that's a lie. Linus Torvalds originally intended for Linux to be used as a desktop OS and is weirded out by the fact that its the only field of computing where it doesn't dominate.
>>51821170
Open source faggots always act like they don't understand basic computer concepts when they "try" windows.
On linux: "Oh yeah, just open a CLI and run this command: 'some medium sized command with five parameters' and then reload x, y, and z. It's really no problem if you know ANYTHING about computers"
But when they 'try' Windows: "It didn't load my GPU drivers automatically, and it bluescreened after I downloaded the wrong one!! Fuck Windows!"
