In 8 hours it uses 20% of the battery. When Windows or Mac are put to sleep, the damn things can sleep for a week! This is the case with Linux on multiple laptops.

Is there some kind of manipulation going by ring -1 that detects Linux is running? Is Linux not respecting some procedure and kissing a step?

I’ve never once actually had windows break on an update. Nix otoh is why immutable nix exist 🤣

You can just run everything in containers so you’ll never ever have to break your machine running Pacman 🤣

Super easy, super reliable.

    And how much of the world is run on Linux desktop specifically?

    You want to compare a desktop environment to a fucking webserver that probably doesn’t even have a gpu or have any concept of Wayland? 🤣Jesus Christ gtfo with that shit. Actually, that’s hilarious. What a dumb fucking statement.
