Enough of these dumb memes already. Do we really so desperately need to boost our self esteem that fucking much? Yes Linux has it's cool benefits over Windows. We fucking know.
It's insanity. I had to upgrade my work laptop to windows 11 this week.
IT didn't do their research and turns out our main software isn't compatible with windows 11 at all. So i had to downgrade back to windows 10. When i did, photos don't work and the microsoft store wont open.
Windows is such a horrible system, i have no idea why they made it so poorly. I could have installed any distro of linux and had it working well in less than 20 minutes. Upgrading to windows 11 took almost 2 hours and it still didn't work.
Now IT has to scramble to find a solution before the 14th and we lose all security updates, which they are very concerned about. What a nightmare to be in IT.
Itβs always a nightmare being in IT lol
Nobody ever calls to say, βHey! Just wanted to let you know that my email is working great, keep up the good work!β
We only hear from people when shit is broken.
Being in a windows shop only makes it 100x more difficult and expensive.
yay
Well, true, one of the slowest packaging systems in Linux world is still faster than Windows Update.
Click Update and Shut Down
Windows: Updates and restarts

Install Windows - does updates as part of the installation process. Get to desktop and check for updates - more updates to install. Reboot and check for updates again - yet more updates.
No it will update and once that is done it will shut down. But the update includes a restart so it will restart and then require you to type your password so it can finish the update, after which it will shut down.
dnf upgrade
dnf5 made this so much more enjoyable
Is dnf5 on by default in fedora 42? Or is that delayed till 43
Dont you mean: sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
Yea apt-get is so 2010
Ain't nobody got time for two commands.
sudo apt upgrade --update
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
Are you serious? That's a thing? I've been doing apt update and apt upgrade for years
