Many forms of Operating Systems have been tried, and will be tried in this world of sin and woe. No one pretends that Windows is perfect or all-wise. Indeed it has been said that windows is the worst Operating System except for all those others that have been tried from time to time

linux and macos are both better than windows, if only because when a windows user asks you for help with their computer, you can reply all smugly like "windows? heh, i don't use that piece of poo poo operating system"

I like playing video games so I use windows and run linux stuff in VMs upgrading Windows 10 added some new hypervisor features which conflict with older versions of VirtualBox, so I upgraded that and now Linux guests just run like absolute poo poo because they changed one of the ways they expose OpenGL and Linux thinks it's a VMware SVGA card and shits itself loudly one of the side effects is some security through obscurity, where after typing anything into the login screen, it disappears and changes away from the vty that X is running on

Is video acceleration in a browser available yet in Linux?  Firefox is almost there, I'm wondering how well it will work considering that Chromium Team know it's a mess. I think you still need goofy packages that hack nVidia drivers if you want to enable VP8/9. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Hardware_video_acceleration

why would anyone need to run a browser with video acceleration on their headless server operation system?

The windows thread is named something cute so Windows questions are getting posted here now. So Visual Studio is the ide, text editor, compiler, and build tool for windows, and microsoft built all of it? It's really just one giant walled garden? I guess vcpkg is "visual studio C package manager" or something too, right? I get that the Linux war between rpms and debs and every other two bit package manager hasn't done anyone any favors, but on the other hand that's less terrifying than imagining IBM wholly owning and maintaining the entire development ecosystem.

To be fair you can use the visual c tools from the command line (iirc without installing visual studio?) and I would still not recommend using it because holy poo poo msvc is so bad its unreal.

TimWinter posted:The windows thread is named something cute so Windows questions are getting posted here now. visual studio is one of many IDEs available on windows. the build tool and compilers that are used by VS are separate components and can (and are) used by 3rd party IDEs and tools. You can also add your own build tools and compilers to VS in various ways. Or you can use 3rd party IDEs and 3rd party compilers and 3rd party build tools. the reason you dont hear about too many people doing that is that VS is just so much better than every other option. All the same dev tools for linux will work on windows but they are absolute garbage. linux users just dont know any better so they assume its some kind of plot by microsoft to force people to use VS.

Linux barely has Wayland support I was looking at what it’d take to port a Wayland compositor to macOS since it’s been suggested that might be a better foundation for an X server than the current support that’s in the OS for XQuartz yeah, lots of “all the world’s a Linux” bullshit assumptions baked into the implementations even if they’re not technically part of the protocol at least Wayland is architecturally better than X11, it’s basically equivalent to the macOS windowserver so actually implementing a compositor from spec should be straightforward (not that I’m going to take that on, XQuartz works well enough for talking to my old computers and Open Genera)
