So say we all.

Apple is its own thing. It is not fully inconceivable that the feds (and therefore everyone else) would switch to MacOS if Windows became [even more] unsupportable, but I doubt Microsoft can provide Office at even the sad level it achieves on Windows and it would take Apple time to ramp up supply.

Linux is an easy sell unless people are hooked on some application or game that doesn't run on it, then it's hard. The interface is familiar enough now (especially with KDE, but there are some other basically credible options) that they won't have a lot of room to complain so long as they don't have problems. That part is going to depend on the hardware, and IME they will have the fewest problems with AMD CPU and GPU now. If they have Intel it might or might not be OK; if they've got Nvidia they're likely to have a bad time at least sometimes.

Business is increasingly using web-based tools for everything, which is not itselft a bad thing- if only more of them were self-hosted. But either way, this decreases the dependence on Windows. I've worked where there's a few Windows machines for clerical staff, or where there's a Mac for the graphics department. That can be Windows' fate again.

Post some pictures.

They have to also have the balls to have a winning formula, like put the nerds with successful histories in charge and let them make decisions and spend money. Instead they want to design everything by committee, and everyone wants to have the biggest piece of the pie. The more companies you combine the less successful it is likely to be. See: Every fucking project like this ever between any of the principals you named here.

Do you need high performance or only compatibility? If the latter, you can at least stuff Windows into a VM for your own protection. Only the graphics performance is poor, but the graphics functionality is also poor.

I believe the OS uses less RAM, but that doesn't change application memory use overall. If applications make inefficient use of resources, there's only so much the OS can do to improve that. It's not like iOS where it's on lock, developers are free to do things not-the-Apple-way.

Biden controlled the world petroleum industry? Who knew!

Investigate and prosecute him if there’s evidence?

See how easy that was? Now do the guy who shows up in dozens of photos with Epstein.

They probably gave away some swamp land. I expect it to be Foxconn 2.0 https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cnbc.com%2F2021%2F04%2F2...

This deal will in no way benefit you or me or anyone who is not a member of tres comas

Now think real hard what happened in 2022 that caused prices to spike.

The orange turd is telling people gas prices are not high. https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cnbc.com%2Famp%2F2026%2F...

I mean holy shit we’re literally in a children’s fairytale. The emperor has no clothes.

Can any MAGA comment on what it feels like to fill your 30 gallon truck tank with $6 a gallon diesel?

The entire premise is simply “not China”?

I was told manufacturing jobs would come flooding back to this country.

I do have a system I run Linux on successfully with only 8GB, but all I run on it is a browser, and sometimes CHIRP.

My desktop has 64GB and it is what I want a desktop to be, I can run lots of things without swap.

My MiniPC has 32GB and it is adequate. But I can't just run whatever I want. I don't use swap because I use SSDs and I don't want to reduce their lifespans if my system goes nuts.

16GB is a reasonable minimum for someone who wants to do more than run a browser.

This isn't even vaguely close to the truth for AMD, whose Linux drivers are far superior to their Windows drivers, and who is now leading sales in the datacenter. AMD is going to do fine. It's Intel with their shitty Linux drivers that has to be concerned. This is a bit ironic because throughout all history it's been AMD with the shitty drivers and Intel with working ones, so it's just another example of how Intel has fallen.
