Stability is what you need in enterprises, my man.

>>58687583
I've never had that problem ;)

Are we just going to pretend that Linux doesn't have an entire world of problems of its own? I don't feel like spending two weeks getting my hardware half working under Linux anyway.

Far fewer problems than Linux for home desktops and laptops.

So there's no way to get comparable battery life with the same settings.

But the whole reason you have a laptop is so you have a portable workstation, right?

What work can you do with Linux that you can't with Windows? Because, sadly, a lot more professional software is written without Linux support. As much as you may not like to admit it, most professional software is written for Windows.

>>58687430

This desu so comfy

Agree, Win7 on desktop, Manjaro on laptop and Android phone

>>58687809

What am I missing out? I used to do little bit of CAD with Ktechlab, and if I needed CAD I could have used Siemens NX.
If I ever needed 3D rendering I would get Blender or Autodesk Maya
If in some point Minitab is not enough for me I could get MATLAB.

ALL run in Linux. It's amazing.

>>58687894

Sadly the engineering world is full of proprietary shit that costs thousands of dollars and only works on Windows.

Also MATLAB runs like shit on Linux.

what is a VM

>>58687913
But I have seen Panasonic using ubuntu in real life during my internship, anon.

>>58687955

I'm referring specifically to point-cloud and FEA stuff that only runs on Windows. A lot of stuff where the added cost of running it on a VM isn't worth it.

I'm not saying Windows isn't shit, but it's the de-facto OS for developers, and most proprietary software gets developed for it. Yeah it sucks, but it's fucking ridiculous to avoid the fact that that's how things work.

Why would you ever use a stacking WM if you know better?

>>58688820
tilling WMs suck dick on desktop and for games desu
they are good if you want to use keyboard only, and especially if you mostly work in terminals (like writing in vim)
you can always create some keybinds for openbox to make it the best of both worlds

Windows on desktop

Honestly not sure why you'd use any other combination. Linux holds no advantages over OSX, running anything but Windows is gimping a desktop and Android is still a steaming pile of shit with no good flagship. Not to mention Android lacks many things that iOS can do natively.

This is the best setup. This is one that will actually give you a fulfilling life. Your computer will be mostly setup for productivity but can also be used for entertainment. Hell most of my friends who use Windows for "gamezzz" only play Binding of Isaac or Dungeon Defenders which are on GNU/Linux now anyway.

Getting rid of my laptop and smartphone helped me improve my life. It really curbed my internet addiction because I don't want to sit at my desktop all day like I do with my laptop. On my laptop or smartphone I can just lay in bed or in a comfy recliner and watch the hours fly by as I do nothing. On my desktop, I check the sites I visit, then I do one of three things: play games for a little, do work, or get off the computer. Since doing this, I read books a lot more. I go outside more. I fap WAY less. I'm genuinely happier.

You don't need to carry a computer with you everywhere and I wholeheartedly recommend that you refrain from doing so.
