Smarty pants!

I think we can make an oven with a tiny fire breathing dinosaur in it.

Why? I thought it was a pretty reasonable reply.

2 years is a long time. Driver issues are few and far between these days. Multi monitor support has greatly improved as well. I can’t help you with your software requirements if you’re stuck using proprietary programs like Photoshop. I can tell you that as a professional graphic designer and illustrator the alternatives to “industry standard” software are powerful and arguably better (Inkscape) on the Linux side. It does take time and effort to retrain years of shortcuts and workflow experience, but it’s definitely doable.

Maybe one day when you’re feeling adventurous give Linux another shot. I know for a lot of people the ethics of open source vs closed aren’t really important, but it’s still fun to see what else is out there.

I’m not sure I understand the question. Pipewire is the audio server, replacing Pulse. It does have frontends that allow routing from different devices, channels, software etc and distributions that are using Pipewire now have interface elements that allow you to control application use of audio devices. I’m not sure I answered your question at all lol.

Ah I see. Pipewire has made audio production a lot easier with far fewer latency issues. I know the FL Studio crowd is pretty diehard, but if you’re ever feeling adventurous there’s a lot more in the audio space now. I personally use Reaper to record my guitar through my Audient interface and have no issues. I’m not much of a beats and loops guy though so YMMV.

What can’t you do on Linux that keeps you on Windows or Mac?

Rad music. Reminds me of Earthbound battle music.

Pfft Linux is too mainstream… I run BeOS and OS/2 Warp.

Not caring is why these corporations have the power they do.

To be fair the pursuit of happiness in and of itself is an uncatchable carrot used to push the capitalist agenda. Happy moments are like sprinkles on a doughnut, few and far between. Contentment is what we should really be shooting for.

Those of you that received the text does that mean y’all are registered Republicans?

I always find it odd that posts like this get any downvotes at all. Like, are people really that in love with Windows and or Microsoft?

That’s Michael Jackson from the Thriller music video as a zombie.

This is the only correct answer.

Video games as a hobby is one of the cheapest ones out there. As far as having time, in my experience people that say they don’t have time for it can’t see the time they spend doing anything else as time spent.

You get it. Apple fans, which by the way I think it’s stupid to be a fan of a product/company, can’t admit that the devices they buy and the company that makes them have flaws. They view the marketing as objective truths when the objective truth is Apple is first and foremost a very profitable company and those profits matter above everything else. They aren’t a “good” company and will follow the path that leads them to profits. Taking a single chip and making 30 devices that all do different things is proof of that.

Alright then.

I’m not treating you like a dumbass, Apple is.
