If you have an SSD you could install Linux Mint in probably 10 minutes. It's fully ready to use for office and browsing and messaging. Of course it won't be ready for your specific use-cases, but no distro/OS is. Just add to that the time it takes to install Wine.

Op herstuff.in. What is the point of linux ? From my usage I can only think of the following pros:

-Free and open software (If you're into that)
-No/less viruses
-Fairly lightweight for use on older systems and being run on the go off a USB

That's literally it as far as I'm concerned. Windows is way smoother,accessible, and you can easily install stuff

Which of these is it?

And MS Office is not one program. It's an office suite with multiple programs. And as long as you don't specify what it is that you need, I will tell you that you could have just used a free Office alternative, e.g. LibreOffice.

>>52616330
>learned a completely new program suite
What is there to learn. It's a standard office suite and looks just like MS Office before they added their "ribbon menus". Just fire it up and start using it.

>>52616350
It has all the features I need. But that's just Writer (Word), sometimes Impress (PowerPoint) and eventually Calc (Excel) for extremely basic stuff. But I reckon most people are the same as me in this regard.
If you need some specialized stuff I guess then you might miss some functionality.

>>52616378
I guess it'd be nice if an official app existed to edit LO documents, but at least there is a viewer. Then again, it can't be very enjoyable to do work like that on your phone. You'd probably still use at least a tablet if you can.

Using Debian Jessie

sudo apt-get install filezilla
>no package found

Check the repositories, filezilla was pulled because of a problem upstream.

Really needed filezilla for class, try to get the package in unstable repository.
Start a dependency hell, break the whole system.

I just wanted Filezilla
Not to write a command-line novel

Prints out terminal log, hangs it on the wall next to my workstation. As a reminder to don't give that shit another chance.

Windows 8.1 works as expected, maybe some obscure synthetic benchmark runs faster on linux, but it is not worth the maintenance to keep it updated and working.

Should i just wait for 2 months until Filezilla moves downstream then?
Update the whole system to unstable?
Distrojump?
Manually installing all the dependencies and then manually install filezilla from make install like this retard recommends >>52616815 ?

Nope, fuck that.

My patience ran out at that incident, and by then i've tolerated alot of bullshit in Linux distros.

You'd only have to install dependencies if any are missing. You do not have to make install. You can download the archive, extract it, and in there you will find the executable to start FileZilla.

Linux on desktops will die a slow and painful death. It's stuck way back in the past and those who develop for it can't come to an agreement for where it should head next.

There is no chance in hell that it will ever go mainstream.

ok so the bet is set, stay mad.

>It's stuck way back in the past and those who develop for it can't come to an agreement for where it should head next.
It's developed with a lot of people with different ideas, talent is not exclusive from big corporations and it's an open terrain for innovation and promotes competition, why should we wat to stop the natural selection.

>There is no chance in hell that it will ever go mainstream.
It's not about if people believes that it'll become mainstream or not, it's that people will keep working regardless of if all people likes or not, i'm happy using it and i know a lot of people that is too, so for me your prediction is worthless.

>Birth of MATE and Cinnamon since Gnome 2 is discontinued.
