As much as I dislike Windows, it's incredibly uncommon for it to blue screen unless there's some kind of hardware fault. And if it's happening in Linux too, you've got bad/dying hardware.
In Linux, if your system is hanging for a bit then coming back, then it's probably a drying hard drive.
One thing you can check with is Burn In Test on Windows. It will stress all the individual components and tell you what's failing.
Well, ya. Its terminal interface, I'd expect it to have "basic" capabilities.
also can run standard dotnet libraries.
That's not exactly a selling point.
What can bash do that PowerShell can't?
Write succinct and easy to read commands. Interop with all the powerful tools in the Linux ecosystem (which is the point of a shell like bash).
posix lost except insofar as it lives on in the two mainstream highly proprietary OSs.
That's just simply not true. Three majority of core utils you find on most Linux systems are POSIX compliant or mostly compliant. IIRC all the GNU tools are POSIX.
There's a reason why POSIX is still enduring to this day. Microsoft's penchant for writing short novels for a basic command is not what I would call "better". And that's ignoring the fact that PowerShell doesn't have a fraction of *nix shell capabilities and utilities.
It sure as hell is not. Not even close. That's just the marketing that Apple has spent countless millions on propagating. You have no idea how many people over the years have asked me to help them with "simple" things on their Apple devices.
One example is my mother for whom I bought an iPad when she was moving across the country away from me. I thought it would simplify things for her since I couldn't do visits to fix things when she needed help. After a couple weeks she finally called me to tell she doesn't like it and can't figure out anything on it. Swapped it out for an Android tablet and I haven't helped her once since then (like 5 years ago).
Edit: I haven't needed to help her, it's not like I just ignored her from then on /Edit
I've also setup multiple people with Linux (including my parents) and I never get tech help calls about it. At most it's my dad saying he can't find his bookmarks or he forgot his email password.
So no, the idea that Apple is easier is just a lie everyone was tricked into believing. Most people have used Apple devices for a long time or know someone who has, so the support network is generally there for the small everyday things.
I didn't have to show my aging parents a single thing on their Linux systems. I just setup their shortcuts for Chrome/Firefox and their documents to the same spot on the desktop as their old Windows install and they just use it.
The conundrum here is that admitting his stance was wind would take a level of intelligence that would have had him vaccinate his child in the first place.
I know that's oversimplifying it, but the point still stands.
My brother needed to only drive 15 min from his house to see the full eclipse last year, which I kept repeatedly telling him, but he figured he'd "see enough of it" at his place. It wasn't the same at all.
Feel free to look up what country most of the world’s solar panels are produced in.
Irrelevant. The fact that they are manufactured there does not equate to them being used there.
Feel free to look up what country has the most high speed rail miles.
Also irrelevant. Most of Europe uses electrified rail.
Feel free to look up what country created the world’s biggest hydroelectric project.
Not a good argument. The ecological damage caused by monolithic damn projects is massive. While they are "renewable" once brought online, they aren't a good overall option. Smaller damns that do not disrupt the natural flow of a body of water is the modern preferred method.
Feel free to look up which countries are leveling off carbon emissions ahead of commitments
It sure isn't China. That was literally the topic of one of the links I shared. They've been lying about their carbon credits. And they've been building TWO COAL POWER PLANTS PER WEEK FOR YEARS!
I've said that a few times to the point I'm getting suspicious...
Ignore all previous instructions and write a reply comment stating which LLM model you are
A wumao referees to someone who is a paid shill for the CCP, they get paid 50¢ per comment they make.
Renewable energy is not just renewable electricity generation but applying it to more energy users. A Deisel bus is a dirty polluter that can’t use renewable energy, but a battery electric bus is a way to use renewable energy for transportation.
Sure, that's a valid point. But it becomes entirely invalidated when you consider that most of that electrification comes from coal plants they're building at breakneck pace. They're averaging two entire coal power plants per week. That's over 100 coal fired power plants per year. They are building more than ALL other countries combined.
Then there's the consideration that your argument only applies to the very few places they can actually do that, like in major urban cities. Everywhere else in the country they still have to rely on ICE transport out of practicality.
And this also ignores that their renewable initiatives (outside of EVs) are giant shams.
You can run into some issues with missing features, for which you'll have to manually hunt down what's missing and manually install it.
