I love this image too much

[-] slacktoid@lemmy.ml 62 points 4 months ago

I know this is a joke but I genuinely get annoyed by people who seriously believe this.

As a 20 year Linux user I cringed at this.

As a linux user myself, this is kind of cringe to be honest.

[-] greywolf0x1@lemmy.ml 15 points 4 months ago

It is a meme? 😒😒😒

[-] DannyBoy@sh.itjust.works 18 points 4 months ago

No, it's a very serious post that has to be taken literally.

This isn't the original image and that sword doesn't really look like it goes with that scabbard. Did someone recreate/enhance the image with AI?

The original:

Excel is basically a bunch of CLIs.

:'(

Also GIMP skills, not to be mistaken with gimp skills (tho there is some overlap in users).

Windows is the virus.

Why is everyone so sure that W10 support ending will have its users stampede towards Linux? I think most users don't care about support and will happily run an outdated OS. They'll probably switch to Apple if they are concerned with that. Am I being too pessimistic?

[-] Piatro@programming.dev 6 points 4 months ago

It doesn't help that win10 support ending doesn't mean your device will immediately die. It means that you'll probably face some kind of consequences at some point in the following year and years to come, which is too hand-wavey for most people.

Hey don't bash Excel, it can run Linux too, although heavily stripped Risc-V version.

[-] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 9 points 4 months ago

Just use Libre office. If you are doing anything bigger than that start a SQL server instead

I find it amussing that tech bros think the average home user will care.... They'll keep using Win 10 like nothing has changed. I knew people still happily using XP in 2014...

[-] millie@slrpnk.net 7 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

For those who aren't already aware, you can continue to get Windows 10 security updates after EOS, as well as updates for legacy windows systems, with 0patch. That's what I plan on doing. https://0patch.com/

[-] reksas@sopuli.xyz 6 points 4 months ago

I thought they specifically planned to end the security updates to force people to use win11

After years of suffering under Microsoft's bugs, you're ready to have your own bugs no one can help you with.

[-] sommerset@thelemmy.club 6 points 4 months ago

Cringe.

I can assure you no one is such a dire need to come to u for help

“…you have the audacity to come to me for help?

Sure! Linux isn’t nearly as difficult to use as people think. There’s a learning curve since Linux does things differently than Windows, but you’d face that if you switched to Mac, too. Here’s a USB disk with [insert user-friendly distro here] loaded on it. If you can make your computer boot with it you have all the skills necessary to install Linux. You can test-drive it from the USB and if it’s just too different from what you’re used to, it won’t have made any changes. Have fun!”

True story... Loaded Linux on my machine to learn. Dual boot wouldn't recognize Windows despite many efforts. Then Linux cinnamon crashed and i had to nuke the whole thing. Still won't deter me.

  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  • 5. 🇬🇧 Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. 🇬🇧🇦🇺🇺🇸
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility.
