Huh? Are you using an ISO from 2004 or something? I’ve never used a terminal on my PC outside of windows. On Linux I don’t even have one installed.

In my experience Windows is bewilderingly complicated, prone to breakage, full of spying/ads, and is a bit of a UX/UI nightmare.

It also just… turns sluggish over time. I’m not 100% sure why, but running their sketchy-looking disk cleanup utility seems to do the trick. Why it has to be something the user knows about and regularly carries out manually is beyond me, though.

I just want my PC to work, not fight me, and not feel like a chore to use. Windows cannot give me that.

It really doesn’t. I can find any number of articles about Windows updates breaking things for hundreds of thousands or millions of people.

And yet when I use it things break. You guys always act like it doesn’t happen, but it does.

I’d rather have a system that works, is uncomplicated, and requires no maintenance. Where I don’t need to constantly paste shit into a command line to get stuff to work, try system restores, etc.

Funny to see a Star Trek reference in your name and then the comment below is simping for an evil trillion dollar company while shitting on the collective collaborative efforts of the many, too. Talk about missing the point.

Config files and terminals? Huh? Why would you need any of that

Gnome works completely fine. It’s probably the most bug-free DE I’ve ever used. And yes I use fractional scaling.

Everything works? On Windows?

Now I know your comments are just bait.

You’re on lemmy.ml

This has always been a Tankie instance for people that hate the west but don’t have the balls to move to the countries they simp for.

Ah, the “you also participate in society” line.

I guess nobody should ever make any moral stand, ever, because living in the 21st century means you’ve indirectly supported evil by default.

Nobody mentioned child labour.

Thinking gay and trans people should have human rights does not mean you must be fine with child labour.

That’s probably because you’re a piece of shit.

Are you serious? Of course people should care if people are using their power and influence to strip certain people of their rights.

Bullshit.

I don’t think you understand what imperialist means.

NATO is a pact you optionally join.

NATO is an extremely good thing, it’s a cooperative defence pact amongst members who don’t wish to be invaded. It’s been very successful.

There’s a reason more countries are seeking to join it.

I didn’t say it’s not a thing, I said it’s not something you really have to worry about with modern displays.

I’d definitely worry about burn-in if you have Teams open for nine hours a day and the taskbar on.

And yet, the testing seems to show that’s not an issue.

I’ve not had a single phone that’s suffered burn in.

Regardless, I’d trust someone who reviews displays for a living over my own anecdote.

There are aftermarket mods to upgrade to a 1080p OLED (which you probably don’t want to do anyway because 1080p is much harder to run)

But you can’t drop the SD OLED’s display into the LCD model, no.

Even then, the concerns are way way way waaaaaay overblown.

Hardware unboxed have been purposely trying to burn in an OLED for thousands of hours, and it’s still barely perceptible even when you’re trying to look for it by taking a picture of the screen then applying filters to make it more visible. In real world usage its effectively impossible.

With any modern OLED display, burn in is something you don’t need to worry about.

I sort of agree and sort of disagree.

People absolutely did move their consoles around then. When I’d stay at my friend’s or a family member’s house, I’d often take my Dreamcast or GameCube, because I knew they didn’t have one.

They’d do the same when they came over to my house, because I never had a PS1/PS2.

Where the handle doesn’t make sense is what you said with the cables and controllers. I’d always put the console in the same place I put my controller(s) and cables - a bag that has its own handles.
