    No, and I think MicroSoft should actually do this, because I find it funny. People who still use Windows and Apple OS deserve whatever comes their way.

        MicroSoft uses Linux. Every single webserver of MicroSoft is powered by Linux, because Windows Server 2022 is just so good.

        MicroSoft’s main income is Linux, their own OS makes up just a tiny part. The way they do business today (“intelligent cloud segment” making most of the revenue), couldn’t be posible if Linux didn’t exist.

        The only ones who still use Windows is gamers and Offices that are too stuck up to automate their boomer accountant’s job.

      Some people live in a world where they have jobs to do and the software they do it with is on one or the other but definitely not Linux.

        Because they let themselves to get locked into proprietary bubble.

        Have fun with your CNC machine that doesn’t work unless you program it with version 113 build revision 7 of proprietary firmware that cannot be loaded unless you run Windows XP SP 3, because CNC machining software is totally something that needed to be windows based…

        Just remember, Therac-25 didn’t need to kill people.

          Gotcha so to satisfy your elitist bullshit I need to run a dual boot machine and switch back and forth between OSes for work and not work.

            You don’t have to, but if Microsoft or Apple prevents you from opening a pirated movie and you need Windows or MacOS for work, dual booting is a solution.
