        Advise people on installing Linux? Yes.

          I expected WSL instructions. Tyrns out there are instructions for both WSL and bare metal. MS outdid themselves.

            That’s cause the OS wars are over. Microsoft is the top contributor to the Linux kernel now.

                Windows 12 will be a web frontend to Azure running on a locked down Linux Hypervisor.

        They’d name it Microsoft Windows Deprecation Maker 2024 Enterprise 11 though.

        Not really.
        Microsoft won’t explain further after “we end support”.

        They are now the “Something went wrong” people.

      If you have a hard time telling this is satire, you might just be a bit dim.

    It really feels like no matter what community you look at on Lemmy, every 3rd post is Windows bad Linux good. It’s honestly a bit exhausting. And I’ve been running Linux for over a decade…

        Sadly, you should feel alienated. When you choose to use proprietary software, you further the injustice that it creates over society. Windows is so shamefully harmful, even outside of just being proprietary that choosing it in 2024 is choosing the side of unjust power, and you should be rightfully alienated for making that decision.

      That’s a term I haven’t heard in a very, very long time. I keep one in a drawer with my Sound Blaster PCMCIA card.

        I work at a MSP, and we support a variety of customers, some with quite old hardware. I still on occasion have to assist in replacing 1.8TB SCSI 7200RPM drives in a RAID array. Finding compatible drives gets harder every time.
