@succfemboi If someone contributes support for it, sure!
So far, we decided to focus on #Flatpak for #Linux desktop, #Docker for servers, #Debian debs and #Homebrew for #MacOS to catch as many people as possible with least effort required.
If someone adds support for #Windows, we would highly appreciate this, too!

@sampo I did not know that horses used computers. It does make sense that they would use #WinXP, since following versions of #Microsoft #Windows seem to be “horsing around” with the interface too much.

As per MS employee on HN, if you want to disable #Windows telemetry, you're "conspiracy minded". Nice.

I need to either buy ZOC7 or get VirtualBox working as a solution for terminals. My current VBox issue is that isn't not responsive, at all. #Windows

It also reminds me of ZoneAlarm, the proprietary 'personal firewall' program we used to install on #Windows so we could identify and block third-party spyware from phoning home over our dial-up and DSL internet connections. Are there #FreeCode equivalents for #Android/Linux and #iThings, that can allow us to block and identify apps that are phoning home over our cell modem or WiFi?

has anyone posted that accuweather #windows #error screen yet? The server(s?) providing some of the weather maps apparently have a bad case of either a dead/dying disk or fikesystem corruption. 'The file or directory C: is corrupt and unreadable' on a classic box looks OK.

> "Try #Windows or #MacOS, they are fine OS in their own right"I wouldn't give this advice for the same reason I wouldn't say "try Heroin or Crack, they are fine drugs in their own right"

Is there a #Windows equivalent of #nmap? I know nmap can be downloaded for Windows, but I'd like to avoid suggesting downloading something. -

@null The critique that it looks like something plastic to appeal to children is spot-on. Agreed that it looks less vomit-inducing when tweaked. I've done this several times. There are additional issues. The "leave no cycles to do actual work" attitude. The "fix it yourself or don't bug us about it" attitude. The shit apps that crash, won't open, can't open their own files, or lose your data.
I've said it before and I still stand by it: If #KDE was the only #Linux DE I'd return to #Windows. -

Kollege aus anderer Fachabteilung behauptete am gestrigen Tage, dass sie kein Problem damit hätten eine PDF-Datei auszudrucken. Man beachte bitte die Tätigkeit! Heute wiederum meldet sich anderer Kollege aus genau der gleichen Fachabteilung und möchte erfragen wo denn die AUSGEDRUCKTEN Dokumente verbleiben. Fernab davon, dass die BATCH-Routine auf dem Server (Ich hasse #Windows!) aufgrund eines Updates nicht mehr funktioniert hat: War es nicht so, dass man angeblich kein Problem mit dem Druck als eigene Tätigkeit hatte? Nun ja, die Antwort war: "Ich bin doch nur Sachbearbeiter!"
Auf mein Angebot zu helfen und mit Wissen zu unterstützen: "Nein, ich will nicht mehr wissen. Brauche ich nicht!" Jau, so kann man natürlich Kompetenzen aufbauen. #IT-Alltag #Unsinn #Fragendes-Gesicht -

Honest question. How does one test something on #windows if one does not have #windows?
Seems obvious, but does one actually have to purchase windows to ensure that their app works on it?
Same goes for Mac...?
Those are pretty hefty buy-ins for a random bloke trying to make cross-compat apps...

I'll start this post for tracking progress about my test for an appropriate linux distro for SHE.
Follow this conversation for more posts!
Requirement: easy to use, well supported, DE recalling #windows, rolling release.

Well, it's kind of more clear to me that I have to migrate my private servers to another more open base. For now I'm using an Intel NUC and I don't like this any longer being based on #Ubuntu-14.04. Time for a change to #Hyperbola. No #systemd, more flexibility. Also I think that a APU2C4 systemboard from #PC-Engines could be enough.
Being honest: I don't believe that #Ubuntu getting back to old positions and I don't need a unixoid copy of #Windows. #Time-for-Change #Free-and-Libre #GNU-Linux -

@david_ross also, the stubborn #EcoWarrior part of my psyche believes that if Skype worked on WindowsXP, any #VoIP app that won't work on this PC is bloated and needs serious pruning. Not wanting to have to constantly upgrade to run bloated software is a major reason why I moved from #Windows to #GNU-Linux

@kame Grundsätzlich einverstanden, aber "out-of-the-box" impliziert den Vergleich zu einer meiner Erachtens falschen Vorgehensweise. Auch unter #Windows funktioniert das eben nicht immer, egal welche Version. Oftmals wird der Eingriff benötigt und wenn ich dann sehe was man derweil so unter #Windows-10 für Verrenkungen veranstaltet und welche Tipps Manche geben muss ich schmunzeln: Dann wäre die Verwendung von #GNU-Linux auch keine große Sache. Und sofern der Vergleich mit dem Mechaniker dann passend wäre: Dann müsste man jedes Programm erneut kompilieren und umgehend den Quelltext lesen können.
Bei der Argumentation "Beschäftigt euch mit dem System!" geht es ja nur darum, dass der Anwender seine ureigenen Interessen vertritt und nutzt.
