So now that Microsoft has bought Canonical and has integrated the Ubuntu into Windows 10, when will you faggots be reinstalling Windows? There is absolutely no reason for you to be using Linux anymore. You have full bash in Windows now, with the ability to run Linux binaries in Windows.
http://www.zdnet.com/article/ubuntu-not-linux-on-windows-how-it-works/
The only reason someone would not run Windows at this point is because they couldn't figure out how to pirate it or are completely fucking freetarded.

Well it's just a few binaries and compatibility libraries. All your essential communications still reside on a system with questionable policies regarding user data sharing. better just say fuck the losers and ditch windows and linux
>>53816080
So what are you running then? BSD?
>>53816011
>So now that Microsoft has bought Canonical
Typical winbabby utilizing all his 3 damaged brain cells for critical reasoning.
Report OP, hide and sage in the options field.
>>53816080
Also:
Not everyone likes apt
Leaving ricing aside, I like the power to choose DE, WM etc...
WIndows is bloated of useless shit
UNIX like os is a must for many of us
Linux file system is not shit as Windows'
Ext(1,2,3,4) vs fat32(shit)
Better control of your system in any Linux distro
Freedom as in libre
.

(list goes on)

All package managers do the same shit.
You can do that in Windows.
No it isn't. It actually has software, unlike Linux.
This makes Windows functionally UNIX like.
There are no real differences between NTFS and EXT.
Windows doesn't use FAT32.
If you actually knew anything about Windows, you could control it.
Freedom is retarded and is the reason there is almost no software for Linux because free software almost never gets paid for.
The amount of software for Windows is reason enough to use Windows, and now that GNU/Windows exists there is no reason to use Linux.

I think UNIX is a meme to you and the internet is running on meme kernel then.
It's ok

Windows has a big server market share too.
>>53816011
Microsoft half assed ports a hand full of Linux tools and libraries to Windows.
THATS IT GUYS LINUX IS OBSOLETE
>>53816011
fuck off
sage
>>53816011
But what about privacy?
What about GNOME?
What about GNU/Linux only software i need for work?
>>53816011
i won't ever return to windows. GNU plus linux is the only i can use now.
If bash and "linux binaries" is what is supposed to make you switch to windows why even switch?
>>53816458

If you have nothing to hide you have nothing to fear.
Windows Explorer > GNOME.
It will run on Windows now.
>>53816489
Games.
>>53816489
That MS basically has to include Linux tools to remain relevant to companies that develop and deploy applications for Linux should be an indictment of MS, not Linux. It's 'nice' of them to do, that devs enjoy using Windows, I do not give a flying fuck. The servers will continue to run some *nix or another.
>>53816515
>Games.
Really?

Can I get your facebook and G+ id?

I don't share that information between sites, but I do have both of those things, unlike you and all the other Linux pedophiles in this thread.
>>53816515
>Windows Explorer > GNOME.
Explorer.exe has stopped working
[x]restart
[ ]check for updates
>>53816011
Your statement doesn't even make sense.
If I don't want/need to run windows why would I want/need to run windows with a linux compatability layer slammed ontop of it?
Thats no reason at all for a linux user to switch.
>>53816589
Linux is not a toy even if you have steam minecraft and other games. I you use Linux as a tool there is no reason.
>>53816592
Go on, just tell me your ID, let me have a look. You are innocent aren't you.
Besides all I can do is just see what you've been up to. Go ahead, post your facebook/G+ link
>>53816618
I'm not doing this for a few reasons.
1. I might become a /g/ meme.
2. /g/ will harass me for at least a week.
It's not about having anything to hide, its about not being harassed by /g/entoomen. The fact that I have Facebook shows that I have nothing to hide. Do you have Facebook?
>>53816369
>resorting to the 99% servers run linux
You know linuxfags lost when they say this.
>>53816651
What did they lose?
> Facts == lose
>>53816647
Why would you become a meme, you only are saying what you believe.
/g/ won't harass you. I dont even have facebook id.
Even if I did, I have things to hide, remember?
>>53816688
>/g/ won't harass you.
You and I both know this is bullshit.
You don't have Facebook, which proves my point.
>>53816708
/g/ won't harass you. How will they? If you have your wall/messaging open then that was your choice.
How about you blur your name and post your screenshots of your family/friends/gfs etc. Also do share your statuses, likes and shares.
If you blur your name (which is needless since you got nothing to hide) it should be okay.
Go ahead
Worth mentioning that NTFS still has very poor performance compared to Linux filesystems - expect software such as Git to run dramatically slower than on Linux.
is apple the only company that still respects users privacy?
>>53816122
it has my favorite software closest upstream
>>53816893
And it's Canadian. I must admit, I am tempted.
>>53816916
try it in a VM for 6 months--a year and see how to feel, friend. read the manuals and subscribe to @misc

Fuck off retard, you think you're some special snowflake for wasting time on social media, or important enough for even losers here to waste time with your profile... just kill yourself.
>>53816893
CWM is the best window manager I've ever used to be honest
It's mostly keyboard controlled with a small set of commands, and lazy focus follows mouse (ie windows don't raise / lower when you hover over them)
>>53816972
Mad freetard is mad.
>>53816991
You tried, but I'm running pirated windows 10 enterprise with not a single purchased software, all is pirated.
>>53816991
Ah, I thought you hid your tails and moved along. Good that you came back
Waiting for your faceboook ID. I really want to see your details
Unicode support.
>>53816651
No one gives a stinking fuck what OS you want to use. If you want to run Windows, that's cool. You don't have to suck your own dick over it. Someone liking something else does not diminish your experience.

Top kek. Confirmed that you're just an asshole talking shit.
Also:
>talking this passionately about mere operating systems
You're cringe as fuck and evidently have nothing else going for you. Development is still better on Linux, as they tend to uphold operating systems that centre around it rather than force literal advertisements into your DE. This changes nothing.
Your argument is basically:
- Linux by itself or ...
- a Linux utility with useless bloat, lack of security, games and pictures of celebrities trying to sell stuff EMBEDDED in your start menu
Concluding that the only reason a developer would choose Windows is that they're a fucking manchild that still bases their life around a pathetic gaming addiction.
Once again, BTFO. I hope your gaymez helps you feel better.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Windows, is in fact, GNU/Windows, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Windows. Windows is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Windows", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Windows, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Windows is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Windows is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Windows added, or GNU/Windows. All the so-called "Windows" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Windows.

So why is Linux the least popular OS among developers according to Stackoverflow then?
>>53816011
gnu isn't linux
