A door is not a computer. Treating your SO like your child is very toxic. If you still don't see the problem I truly feel sorry for whoever you're with.

Edit: A fully formed adult mind (referencing the wife from earlier) would conclude they should get a Windows computer for their very own, not manipulate and humiliate someone else.

    I used to had linux mint in an old computer and for some reason the wifi didn't work.

    To me this implies it isn't their primary computer. It's not "manipulating and humiliating" someone else. It's just saying, "you've been saying you'd fix this but it hasn't worked, I need to use this computer for something."

    And no need to feel sorry for my wife. We've been together over half our lives, married for over a decade, and extremely happy with each other. My wife has done things like this to me. It's not toxic or manipulative. Sometimes I overestimate my own skills and/or get distracted with other things.
