For the vast majority of consumers why shouldn't they use windows 10?

I mean for your average consumer who does office tasks/gaming W10 is perfectly fine

They shouldn't because of its dishonest practices.
People seem to settle with unacceptable shit just because it's more comfortable.

The better question is why wouldn't the majority of consumers use GNU and ChromeOS.

what language is easiest to do accurate inelastic 3D material dynamics with? im tired of fixed geometries and want to simulate the atomic structure of a material. i figured that wouldn't be too computationally expensive...right?

Most of the weight is on the way you implement something.
A really good programmer using qbasic can completely obliterate a shitty one using asm.

I've been using Linux for the past 5 years. I recently installed Windows 10 on a partition for gaming and some scanner bullshit I couldn't get to work in linux. Holy shit everything takes 10x longer to do just because of loading times alone. And there's goddamn adverts for Minecraft in my start menu. And holy fuck updating is a 30 minute affair. How can anyone stand this garbage? Why does Windows suck so hard?

Al right /g/ I have about 600 bucks to spend on comfy tech. What to buy? I already own a ThinkPad. I'm considering the GPD pocket but because Linux support is apparently terrible I'm open for other ideas.

So it's got a Samsung EVO SSD & warranty but it has a Samsung 850 Pro price.
Why in the fuck would I ever buy this and why would you think anyone would want to?

Hey /g/ looking for a good business class laptop that ISN'T a lenovo think pad model. I refuse to give new IBM money. In short I can pay max $800 and I am a network admin so an RJ-45 port is a must have. What are your thoughts? It has to look good to my clients, so those dumb faggots keep paying me money for trivial work because

If it's a specific 'I don't trust a Chinese company' kind of thing, remember where everybody's shit is made.
If you don't think the current build quality on the T series is up to snuff or something though, then fair enough. They went to shit with the xx30 generation, got even worse with the xx40 and have only just clawed their way back up to being worthwhile laptops.
