Nobody assumed that, but you still haven’t answered the question…

What region are you from and what games do you play? Because playing Counter Strike as a European gets me in contact with a lot of Eastern European players and lord have I seem some shit on those profiles.

You took this out of the context it was in.

I switched to Linux myself but can we please stop lying about Linux being a drop-in replacement? There is enough sofware that does not work.

That still won’t say anything about the reliability of the medium. The update itself isn’t the problem.

Depends. If you need updates on the software used in the air gapped network you won’t have lot of options. Burning cd’s doesn’t sound so crazy all of a sudden though…

I mean, it’s very easy money given you already have a channel and a name dor youself. What would YT have to pay creators to not care about such easy money?

As a YT Premium subscriber I really don’t mind the sponsor sections. Money goes to the creator and a few taps and I’m back to watching. Also, I think outright banning sponsor segments is going to make creators more creative in a bad way…

I might just be tired but I’m having a hard time understanding what you’re asking.

While I hate the videofication of everything as much as the next person. Looking at a regular website these days is even worse than YouTube with ads… Cookies bro? You want to subscribe? Can we send you browser messages?? Here are 10 ads that move the text around that you were just reading…

This. Files uploaded locally should automatically be synced though.

He looks like the neighbour from that 70’s show to me…

A simple PC, you can also use it to browse, download stuff, Steam stream etc. The possibilities are endless

So you think that what you have described above is something all Windows 10 users deal with?

For all it’s shortcomings this sounds more of something on your end and also something quirky that you will any OS really…

In this context an unsupported cpu would be an i7 7700K for example. Hardly e-waste and can perform quite well…

Calling it very flaky is somewhat strong but there are a lot of cases (or at least people repeating it) of people not getting 4 sticks stable on overclock profiles. I don’t know any numbers ofcourse but if you have the luxury to plan ahead and go for 2x16 you won’t risk it.

Some reading: https://linustechtips.com/topic/1469735-4-sticks-of-ram-zen4/ (not only talks about zen4)

AMD and more than two sticks of ram is very flaky…

Unlike?

Sorry but I hate this argument. Most people use a phone for that anyway. And my 70 year old mom is going to ask my dad and if he can’t fix the problem someone else and guess what. They never worked with Linux. I can tell you that a lot of the buttons and controls have looked the same in Windows for way too long. Admittedly from Windows 10/11 this gets worse.

Also they will need software from the local photo place, some shit old legacy app that they refuse to let go, banking software that isn’t Linux compatible… it’s never “just browsing” from my experience and it’s not worth the hassle. Especially if I’m cornering myself by becoming the only 24/7 on-call admin for my family.
