Linux viable replacement OS when?
>>
Has been viable for years if you're not retarded
>>
>>62231899
Windows 7 for ever and ever.
>>
>>62231917
There is no viable linux on the desktop option.
OP is inbred though so mac would be best option so he doesn't hurt himself.

>using a microsoft account
The problem is you.
>>
>>62231899
This was the straw that broke the camel's back.

Goodbye Microsoft. Hello Solus

>>62231899
obongo was quite stable until the idiots decided to go for Unity. Well now they're back to GNOME so things should be babby proof again.

What's a shared experience?
>>
Linux is already viable desu. I'm now using fedora, although it's a bit of a meme. I needed something that worked well on my 3200*1800 touch screen laptop and I didn't have time to fool around with it too much.
It's stable, looks good and gets the job done. I find gnome very useful for writing my dissertation, which is all I do with the machine (and browsing the internet).
>>
>>62232282
The problem is still you.
I have been using Windows 10 since release and never had this issue.
The one time I did see a similar message was in my Insider Preview VM where I am logged into with an account.

>>62232320
When you log in with the same account on two different devices you can continue your "activity" when you switch devices in applications that support it.
For example Edge will copy all your tabs from your phone when you come home and open Edge on your pc.
I never used it I'm just parroting their pitch.
>>
>>62232320
Basically a setting which allows you to share apps/pages from your mobile device to desktop. So you're listening to music on your phone, then using shared experience can continue doing so on your desktop.
>>
>>62232320
No idea, anon. Probably some virtual mind meld shit like in the 2009 film Gamer providing surrogate social interaction designed to keep the peons under constant surveillance and dopamine drip.
>>
>>62231940
Ubuntu is viable as fuck. Using it for years now and it just works
>>
>>62232417
I love them system errors too babe.
>>
>>62232417
If by 'using' you mean shitposting on 4chinks, you are right.
>>
>>62232439
That being said, most of Ubuntus problems are Plebians fault, but Canonical could at least do the needful, e.g. checking Bluetooth config.
>>
>>62231899
Right after you learn programming.
Anything you miss can be made.
>>
>>62232426
sudo apt purge apport 

>>62232439
no.
I mean stuff like
- programming
- writing documents
- calculating stuff with matlab
- all different kinds of daily tasks
- watching porn
>>
>>62232439
By "using" it he means the following
1st, acting as a a victim consumer watching all those amazon ads
2nd, being the guinea pig for every fucking failure they force-feed him(mir,unity,edge,e.t.c.)

Elitism, the post.

Most of all tech problems are because of plebians. That isn't exclusive to linux.

I can use double void pointers in C. I still don't feel like making my own AutoHotkey and 144 Hz interpolated video playback support and GPU driver support and game ports and new Linux kernel that respects Date Created timestamps because Date Modified is touched by en/decryption.

I'm using Linux as main OS since a longer time now. It's just much more comfy, things run actually more fluent and easier, software completely updates itself, no ads, malware, surveillance or other stuff that triggers my autism. Everything is clean and very customize able. Cinnamon also just looks 1000 times better than Windows. The only reason to boot into W7 sometimes is to game gaymes that don't run on Steam/WINE. For Office I use a VM, but only for work, my private documents are perfectly made with LibreOffice.

There is just no excuse not to use Linux.

>double void pointers
cool.
>autohotkey
Learn bash instead.
>video playback support
That works
>GPU driver support
Search which cards have drivers and get one of those.
>games
Pick games that work
>date created
Store things in a database if you need more metadata.

>Learn bash instead.
Does Bash support pushing input to certain programs on conditions such as "if the current program is running"?
>That works
It does, but not 144 Hz interpolation because Linux is aimed at hardware too shitty to pull that off to begin with.
>Search which cards have drivers and get one of those.
Up to date drivers that people worked to write for profit? Or do you mean rewritten versions of old drivers that eCommunists pushed to Linux for karma?
>Pick games that work
I'm sensing a pattern. "Be satisfied with the limited domain of things supported in Linux" is not a durable basis of viability, anon, nor is it a credible response to the criticism that some things are not supported.
>Store things in a database if you need more metadata.
You mean like some OSes do implicitly, obviating the need for me to build, automate, and query my own database along with the minor Manhattan Project of integrating that with a Linux file explorer?

Linux viable replacement when? :C

GNU/Linux btw.

You do realize that both Nvidia and AMD have officia linux drvers, right?

This. Also modern distros even serve a click-and-install option with fucking GUI

yes, xdotools can send keypresses, move the cursor etc.
>It does, but not 144 Hz interpolation because Linux is aimed at hardware too shitty to pull that off to begin with.
Wrong
>Up to date drivers that people worked to write for profit? Or do you mean rewritten versions of old drivers that eCommunists pushed to Linux for karma?
I would go for the first one, most nvidea falls into this catagory.
>>Pick games that work
>I'm sensing a pattern. "Be satisfied with the limited domain of things supported in Linux" is not a durable basis of viability, anon, nor is it a credible response to the criticism that some things are not supported.
I have no idea what games you care about and I don't really care. I have had plenty of games to play the past decade.
>You mean like some OSes do implicitly, obviating the need for me to build, automate, and query my own database along with the minor Manhattan Project of integrating that with a Linux file explorer?
No, use it where it might be needed.
A database might give you more relevant information.
>Linux viable replacement when? :C
It all depend on how important the creation date is when you play those games you can't live without.
