This needs to be percentages.

But it doesn’t… windows has been the same (download and click) for decades. The same for Mac. Linux is different between every distro. And even for one distro you might have several install methods. It’s just not the same at all.

And if you start talking about other things, not just installing, then I literally covered that in my comment! Updating is much easier on Linux! Even with all the crazy install methods. But we’re not talking about other things, we’re talking about installing.

This is the same damn bullshit that I’ve been saying for years that the Linux community does. You’re the problem. Stop acting like Linux is perfect. Take feedback. Understand that there are things to improve and that something like having twenty ways to install isn’t a benefit of the platform but a major downside.

Incorrect. Neutering them will still result in massive loss of life or extinction of species on the reef. Anyone who cares about animals and the reef will kill them, not neuter and rerelease.

No but if you’re going to capture these it’s just a waste to neuter them. The problem is how many other fish have no defenses against them so in effect you’ve done nothing, the lionfish is going to continue killing for the rest of its life. The proper way is to just spearfish them and take them to a restaurant for them to cook for customers. You’ve then both “neutered” them and removed the destruction

He looks moldy

Sure thing! If you’re using KDE. What about Mint? Gnome, cinnamon, etc. these are all things you have to explain to anyone new to the ecosystem.

Just an FYI for you for the future. You can use iNaturalist to identify stuff in savings; plants, bugs, fish, mammals, reptiles, etc.

If you have money and others don’t and they are competing to get a job, and you pay them minimum wage, you are exploiting them. You can pay more, you can help the economy, and you refuse to. You are exploiting them because they have no choice.

Most IT is full of idiots. There’s no “outsmarting” here. There’s nothing to detect, nothing to notice. And if you think that a mouse wiggler isn’t going to be noticed while a device that reports itself as an actual mouse will then you’re a moron.

Can’t tell if this is a joke or not. If IT is walking around doing checks then having your mouse sitting on a fucking mouse wiggler is going to raise a billion more eyebrows than an esp32 plugged in.

You’re not using either of these if you work in a fucking office dingus.

Places with good IT departments might even flag your machine for having a weird device config with two of the same mouse to go do a visual inspection

Fucking unplug the mouse! Like holy hell this isn’t a hard thing to understand. You’re just making excuses cause you can’t reasonably handle that maybe a $5 computer is a better solution than a shitty mouse wiggler.

So none of your comment is on installing, but on uninstalling or how it installs. Like I said: search for app, download exe, install. That’s the windows workflow. Users do not care how it gets installed, temp files, etc. they just care about the process. It is much much much easier than Linux.

6 paragraphs to explain how it works on Linux vs one sentence for windows. Do you not see the problem here? Claiming that it’s easier on Linux is just plain lying. While you have more choice, sure, but that’s not at all what the author of the article said, nor the user I responded to. The author said it was more confusing on windows, which is just plain false.
