It's actually for my hands. I get dry hands, although I don't use it as much as I should.

Because current Microsoft wants to serve an operating system that's centered around normal people who see computers as an ease of access for doing homework on Blackboard and checking in with their middle school friends on Facebook, not power users like most of /g/ who use plugins and vpns to get past sad pandas and actually care about consistent aesthetic design across the system.

That piece of shit crashed on me while I was writing a script with no warnings whatsoever. After I booted it back up the whole file was fucked and had to spend 2h again writing it from scratch.

Just do frequent backups because CTRL+S apparently doesn't matter on this garbage.

you can do all that on linux. Given how far gnu/linux has gone over the years, there's no reason not to move over anymore.

The problem is people live in a "just werks" mentality and don't see computers the way the normal /g/ browser would. To a lot of people, computers are a means to an end, a tool much like a power drill, and not so much a machine that can be an extension of yourself more or less. And for them, Windows is better because

>the exes just werk
>the words just werk
>the 12 pt times new roman just werk
>the ctrl + alt + del just werk

and for a lot of those people branching out and learning how to make those justs werk in order to get the same experience doesn't work. They'd rather pay for the werks to just by people certified in just werking rather than figure out how to just the werks themselves.

People are gonna easily get turned off by

>compiling from source when a program isn't readily available with their package manager
>having to fix the shit themselves when an update fucks up one little thing
>figuring out how to work wine in order to run exes in a compatibility layer
>learning how to use anything but microsoft office for their daily activities

tl;dr it's not so much because people don't know you can also do those things on Linux, it's because people don't know how to use Linux and would most likely be scared off by the minuscule amount of extra work they'd have to put in just to do something basic.

>most of /g/

Most of /g/ are paranoid autistic children.
"Power user" is capable of doing a single google search to learn how to disable automatic updates under 5 clicks - if they decide they don't need the updates for some reason.

How can an operating system respect my freedom? I wasn't aware AI had come that far, or that it had been implemented into Linux distros. What other human-like capabilities does it have?
