This statement doesn’t actually give a clear picture. It’s doesn’t explain why.

It’s the windows fan curve more aggressive?

What programs were being ran?

What was the actual fan speed?

What was the actual temp?

What was the exact version of Windows/Linux?

We’re these ‘experiments’ ran in the same hardware under the same conditions.

You can choose to be LTT and just say whatever and pass it off as fact, or you can be GN and back it up with highly detailed facts.

Now there’s a bit of software I haven’t thought about in a long time

Yeah quality of the brand really matters. Samsung makes some of the worst appliances. And older appliances really were just built better in many cases.

Probably not popular opinion, but pwsh (powershell). It’s got a lot of tooling built in and means I don’t have to learn a different tool just because I’m in a different system.

To downplay these differences and claim that all distributions are the same is ignorant. Anyone who wants to get the most out of Linux should be aware of the wealth of options available.

That’s the definition of not being user friendly. And it’s not like shoes. Because trying on a pair of shoes takes minutes, at a store that generally has hundreds of shoes available. And shoes literally do one thing. Your average user does not have nor want to spend nights and weekends troubleshooting the distro they’re ‘trying out’ to see if it works best, then to continue troubleshooting it down the road.

But I do like how you ignored a lot of what of what I said, because it didn’t fit your response. Because unlike you apparently, I think of people besides myself. You also make wild assumptions about me. Should I show you my RHEL installation? CentOS? My Debian servers… I have dedicated hardware and VMs. And I also run Windows. Do I get to have an argument now… do I pass your weird gatekeeping threshold?

And that’s still not addressing the circle jerk where far to many people put linux on some pedestal, worship it, and assume their better than everyone because “btw, I use arch”. Like every distro isn’t going to try to milk as much money out of it as they can if they think they can get away with it. Ubuntu is the most approachable distro (that I’m aware of) and often gets suggested, especially to new uses. Linux is not immune to the problems that plague MacOS or Windows.

That’s not a valid argument.

So someone looking to buy a new machine has a few options. They have MacOS, Windows, Chromebook, or Linux. And there’s a high probability that when they’re at a shop be it online or in person looking for a Linux machine it’s probably going to be Ubuntu.

You don’t get to tell the user, “well you picked the wrong distro, lol” when all they wanted was something that runs the software and hardware they want. The vast majority of users want something that just works, not have to become some expert.

And also, it’s rather dismissive, I show an example of Linux doing the same thing that Apple and Microsoft do… Ubuntu is still Linux.

You mean like Ubuntu , who put adds in as well.

This is status quo for every large corporation. Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, EVERY SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORM, Roku… They all, ALL, push boundaries to see what they can get away with to not only sell you something, but also make you the thing they sell. Sometimes they’re bold enough to make it public what they’re doing, sometimes, it’s a leak that happens when people find out how little the company actually cares about it’s users (Apple, so many user data leaks).

Why is 42 the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything?

So a bunch of people have already said about using the ethernet adapter. Which is exactly what I would say.

But for argument sake and for people who are using the switch lite, get yourself a Wi-Fi analyzer. Like this one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vrem.wifianalyzer

You’re living in the countryside you shouldn’t have a lot of EMI. Could be just poor signal. The analyzer will help you visualize what the Wi-Fi is where the switch is.

Of course this is all assuming that the problem is on your side of the connection and not from your ISP.

He’s always been incompetent. He was fired from PayPal for that very reason. He’s used his parents emerald business money to fabricate a career. He’s paid his way into being the engineer he clearly idolized but couldn’t actually earn himself. He bought Tesla, he bought Twitter, the “HyperLoop” was a hundred year old idea called a vac-train. Even the biggest selling point for SpaceX, were just plans NASA had decades ago but the technology didn’t exist at the time to pull it off. I mean the Boring Company… we’ve been successfully digging subway tunnels for a long time… the London Underground opened in 1863. New York had theirs in 1904. Elon in 2018 debuted a claustrophobic tunnel that was less than 2 miles long…

If it wasn’t for daddy’s money, he would have been a nobody. But he bought his way into some sort of ‘relevance’ and has conned a lot of people who don’t understand science out of a lot of money. His greatest accomplishment is being a great conman.

There should be no algorithm. It should be done by a human. There are no amount of lines of code I will ever make up for knowing intent and what the current situation is.

If it’s going to be closed by software it needs to prioritize safety 100% of the time. If more pressure is needed and that pressure needs to come from a human.

Commenting so I remember to check this out tomorrow

I’m partial deaf… These let me hear music in a way I never could. I remember being in a quiet place and listened to an audio sample… Hearing an instrument on my bad side was like listening to it for the first time. Hearing in stereo is just wild when you have only heard in mono your whole life

Didn’t they also fund a genocide campaign in Uganda?
