speaking of botnet, how do people find out in the first place if an OS is abusing their privacy and data. If a brand new OS popped up, for instance?

Installing a program on WindowsFind-Package xFireFox | Install-Package
But you're right for the most part. Having to use your browser to find an installer is awful.

They are garbages, maybe more than the windows store.

None of it

windows cucks will defend this
Windows Update will never compete with a proper package manager, sorry shills, it's not on the same level.
>>55467342
>ERROR: Dependency version requirement not met.
Well shit, guess I can't install that app.
>>55467312
The only thing you might have to search for is the network driver. And that's only if you have very old or unusual hardware.
From there Windows update will take care of things 90% of the time.

How many programs are you installing a day?
Compatibility, performance, ease of use for day to day tasks. These are the things that matter.

>>55467366
Windows Store is the package manager, guys. For developers, Visual Studio has its own package manager.
>>55467108
UFS by default reserves 5% of space that can only be written to by root. if this reserved space gets written to then the capacity shows > 100% and availability show negative space.

What is better with gimp, something Photoshop doesn't have?
Does gimp have pantone colors yet?

isnt photoshop in the fucking cloud now? dont you have to have a subscription, and if you stop paying you stop having photoshop?
what a joke
>>55468564
>m-uh Adobe.
Why do autist shill some niche shitware thinking everyone needs it?
Windows doesn't have TensorFlow nor Docker but that doesn't make it unusable for the general population.
>>55468585
>>55468600
Thank you.
So Gimp doesn't have pantone colors yet.
So have you managed to come up with something that gimp does better than photoshop?
>>55468622
Yes, you have to buy a subscription to the entire "adobe cloud" to have access to photoshop. It's autism
>people still argue that Gimp is better than photoshop lol
>>55468628
Not the guy you're replying to but gimp's not a closed source botnet.
>>55463801
To be honest after using chocolatey, I realized that the CMD install shit was garbage.
I still prefer going to the website and reading about the program majority of the time, but at least it's easier to install programs on a fresh install of windows
>>55468641
Pick one:
Use GIMP, jack off about muh open source
Use PS, actually accomplish your work and be successful in life
>>55468637

What's better about photoshop?

Gimp's user extensible.

Oh right... I'm dealing with shut ins that have mental disabilities that prevent them from being socially developed enough to get a job and use professional editing tools.
>>55468664
Photoshop has plugins too...
>>55468662
I know successful graphic designers that use GIMP.
>>55468663
It's the only software graphics designers that came from a shitty community college know to use and like to feel superior.
>>55463133
What is this Windows program you speak of sir?
uTorrent or something?
>>55468672
I'm not talking about plugins. Plugins are difficult to develop unlike Gimp's extension system.

It's not hard, it's just retarded.

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux 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 “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux 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. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.
