No the claim is that the inflation is artificial.. not the prices.

MadhuGururajan ,

Pop os is better now

MadhuGururajan ,

Its not gatekeeping when if you don't use the underlying Arch system you're not getting the same experience as "using linux".

MadhuGururajan ,

A silent portion of the community actually prefers that normal people don't adopt linux. Those with entitlement and wanting to be spoonfed everything are best left to suffer with windows.

Its kind of unfair because the playing field is not level. Microsoft made sure of this decades ago.

The problem with linux is Microsoft. They worked hard over half a century to make it difficult for linux adoption. They paid hardware vendors to keep windows exclusivity. They forced secureboot starting at windows 8 causing problems for linux users.

They made sure linux never got the mindshare that windows has.

MadhuGururajan ,

Oh boy you're still hating on linux and shilking for big corp.

MadhuGururajan ,

Shilling + Milking = Shilking

MadhuGururajan ,

Linux is fantastic for running shit. It's pretty terrible for most normal users to use.

Skill issue.

MadhuGururajan ,

Apparently being responsible for your own computer is too much to ask. It's not so difficult to manage a linux install. In fact, its much easier and smoother if you are willing to become familiar with how things work. But whining that linux OS broke like Linus Sebastian from LTT when you can't read and take responsibility is like complaining that the car didn't save you when you crashed a manual honda civic expecting it to perform like a autopilot car. Its asinine and illogical.

We all grew up with windows and became familiar with it as that was the only choice. To insult linux and its users just because you want 100% perfection from an OS people build as a hobby for free is quite ignorant and entitled. If you don't like linux stop commenting on programming forums.

The year of the linux desktop for me started in 2009 when I first installed ubuntu and it has been the year of the linux desktop for me since then. I have learnt to fix flaws in my system. I know what its limitations are. I don't expect linux to fix all my problems. But i certainly do recommend it to newbies even if it might frustrate them. I expect them to take it or leave it. I don't insult their intelligence by assuming they definitely need handholding.

Microsoft poured several billions by now into windows and it's only getting worse day by day. If you suggest that Windows is best for daily users then it is clear that you're just insulting people's intelligence instead of uplifting them.

MadhuGururajan ,

That fixed it for you no? Why are you still bitching about it like a whiney little kid. Go cry to Nvidia.

MadhuGururajan ,

Hmm you seem to denigrate people for not understanding tech while seemingly giving up your privacy and $100 for Microsoft.

Do you understand not being ripped off?

MadhuGururajan ,

This particular user seems to be a corporate shill. I hope they are getting paid for their advocacy of the malware infested OS that steals private data of paid users. At least then they wouldn't be dumb. This user is consistently arguing that piracy is theft in other threads but will go bat for corporations. Companies that have stolen a lot more from tax money, environment, wage theft, lobbying politicians to artificially stiffle competition, lying to congress about data theft, etc.

Edit: I meant LemmyIsFantastic not you

MadhuGururajan ,

LemmyIsFantastic is a corporate shill or an unpaid troll. Don't bother wasting your breath.

MadhuGururajan ,

You should blame software makers and hardware vendors. Not Linux. There isn't a Linux company that pays for vendor lock-in.

MadhuGururajan ,

You're barking up the wrong tree then. I don't know why you would do that when you claim to be a pragmatic person. What's exactly your beef? Care to tell me?

MadhuGururajan ,

Shouldn't you at least understand the reason why it is that way? Or are you going to blame Linux when there's no single entity behind it?

Microsoft struck shady deals with laptop vendors to make them microsoft exclusive. Steve Ballmer effectively said Linux is cancer (probably blaming GPL license). They let people pirate their software so future technologists grew up with windows and other windows software (adobe did the same with photoshop, now it's industry monopoly)

A community OS like GNU/Linux competes with Microsoft who has billions in the bank. It's only in the past few years that Linux has seen wider hardware vendor adoption at all.

It's fine if you think Linux is non-viable... but speak for yourself. Don't go around trolling people who are perfectly fine with Linux.

Edit: if you don't care about anything I just wrote then you're just a horse with blinders on and I am wasting my time.

MadhuGururajan ,

It's not a fair comparison when you trot out good ol photoshop. Can you find an alternative to blender? Yes you can run blender on windows too. It works flawlessly. Linux being non-viable only affects you and that shill.

It's definitely a case of you barking up the wrong tree.

MadhuGururajan ,

Actually the trick is to write down stuff when you weren't able to do then.

MadhuGururajan ,

I would do the following:

Build a PC,
Buy a bike and travel,
Buy a bicycle and ride it on trails,
If single: casual dating,
Develop a skill like musical instruments or learn a language.

I don't like going to the gym because lifting weights and treadmills are quite boring. Instead I would play sports like football, badminton, etc.

MadhuGururajan , (edited )

No

Edit: the one with the round ball

MadhuGururajan ,

Do some websites refuse to function even with useragent spoofing?

Unity owned ECS patent uses techniques described in 2013 Stack Exchange post (github.com)

The 2013 StackExchange post [^1] describes what is now commonly called an "archetype" based ECS architecture that was implemented as compile time archetypes in the author's open source project in Feb 2018 ^3. A similar ECS model was described later in the June 2018 patent filed by Unity ^2 and active since 2020....

MadhuGururajan ,

Corporate loves to steal ideas and patent it/copyright it so nobody else gets to steal it next, even the original author of a technique.

MadhuGururajan ,

Orangepi, rockchip, Arduino.

There's nothing novice about wanting to learn.

MadhuGururajan ,

Lay off a few C-Suite. Abolish golden parachutes. It's not so difficult that a company can't run for a few months without execs.
