Oh, okay.

When did Windows get SystemTap/dtrace similar functionalities?

When did Windows get dnotify-like functionality?

When did Windows support hierarchical queuing disciplines on network adapters?

It performs objectively better and it's objectively more stable.

It's also objectively more secure.

It also doesn't have built in ads and spyware.

Windows gets progressively slower and slower after about a months use whereas linux just stays snappy.

Stay mad wintards

Difference between canonical and MS:

Canonical removed the Amazon search function after backlash, Microsoft just keeps the ads and spyware and even participated in the NSA PRISM program.

Comparing the two just shows how delusional wintards are. Enjoy your shitty OS retard.

You're literally letting MS fuck you in the ass with ads, which makes you a literal cukc.
>>
>>56665080
>Ubuntu is the only linux based OS
And that amazon shit isn't even enabled by default. At least you can actually remove it unlike windows telemetry and data collecting.

Didn't they remove this after the shit storm it created?
>>
>>56665108
That's still a thing?
>>
>>56665144
Yep, and remember the shitstorm that happened after MS released Windows 10 with adware and spyware.

Did Microsoft remove it? Nope, they don't care about users, just profits.

To MS you are the product and anyone who lets themselves be bought, sold and fucked in the ass is a cukcold.

Well then you're delusional. You get offers all the time in the start menu.

>stable

Windows is not stable or it would be the OS of choice on servers. It's an unstable mess and that's why no one uses it for anything except program compatibility. Nothing about the Windows operating system is objectively better than Linux except program selection. Linux is better in every other aspect.

Enjoy using a gimped system just because you need to run a few closed source programs (that are probably chinese viruses) that you downloaded from random websites on the internet because Microsoft is too stupid to implement proper package management.

BTW, can you tell me what packages I can install to "break" my system? protip: you can't.

Linux will always be more stable than Windows, now go install a 10-hour .NET update right when you need your computer the most.

Loser.

He called you Terry, noticed?
Terry Davis built templeos.
Templeos doesn't support networking and therefore you cannot log into any online accounts using it.
It looks like you didn't ever realize how far he moved the goalposts. Fuck.

1- good filesystem
2- you can make it your bitch without breaking unless you yourself break it (aka customizing)
3- actually does its fuckig job
4- free 90-95% of the time (proprietary drivers not included)
5- is actually good at being used for servers
6- variety so you get what YOU want
7- bash (only until windows has it working on par)
8- actual good security
9- software alternatives if you don't wish to support cancerous companies
10- open source in majority of software if you wish to fork shit for your own reasons
>>
>>56664343
It's true.
