Windows basically never nukes the actual linux install. It DOES like breaking the bootloader though. Which is fixable but still deeply annoying.

whomever said Einstein wasn’t good at math

Got confused by the german grading system. Lower grades are better.

I mean you can just run gold t-shirt foil through a plotter and get pretty much that exact effect. It’d still be a massive pain in the arse to get the waste removed and the pattern applied, but nothing that’s outside the realm of capability for cosplayers.

work on your reading comprehension.

I think that’s generally true. As with most brain things, autism is mostly just normal things except amplified to the point where it’s a problem^tm. It’s why there’s so many “sensory” toys out there as well. Fidget cubes mostly started as an ADHD thing and now everyone has em.

Pressure can be soothing to some autistic people. It’s where the whole weighted blanket thing originated too.

You’re either being intentionally obtuse or disingenuous.

Or I’m simply disagreeing with you. I’m not disagreeing to disagree, I just simply am not convinced by your arguments.

you wouldn’t count people who bought that refrigerator as Linux users, would you?

No, I would not.

If they’re not exposed to any operational functions of the OS, then counting them as users of the OS is dishonest.

Right, but the steam deck exposes all that perfectly fine, a lot of uses simply choose not to engage with that. Someone using debian but then only touching the web browser still counts as them using linux surely.

I mean his nose is perfectly accessible so it only makes sense to.

I used to play with a metal bodied pen at my desk, and you could totally shock yourself by touching it to your chin while aimed at the CRT.

Measuring by units would be WAY more skewed. The top 10 would all be free items, or if you exclude those $0.01 items. Measuring gross revenue is much harder to game unless you count “actually selling $500 hardware a lot” as cheating somehow.

But that’s true for anything. you could swap out the OS under gnome and most users wouldn’t notice either.

I mean in a regular surgery anything below waist level or so is already considered non-sterile, So I think the risk of doctors accidentally dipping their hands in the swamp water is pretty low :P

I’d probably call Big Picture the Desktop environment in this case. Yes it’s a simplified linux experience, but it’s not not linux.

I’m assuming it’s referring to the batteries

That seems easy enough to make. Weave some metal thread into the paper or some such and you’ll jam most shredders handily.

He runs faster than me for sure, but he’s got a wonky knee so most other dogs outrun him unfortunately.

Definitely has the streamlined look though!

They’re using a curated overlay for Linux

This is commonly known as a “distro”. SteamOS is just particularly good at being user friendly for it’s fairly narrow use-case.

The exodus still occurred and it totally worked out in Admin’s favor.

That’s a shame. It’d be a perfect time for a strike. Worst case you get fired, best case you get your bonuses.

Now try it with the selfie camera on your phone

How hard could remodeling a bathroom be anyway?
