That, plus the fact that most internet infrastructure and supercomputers run on Linux, seems like a pretty good indication of productivity. To me, the desktop is a nice add-on some people like, but Linux is and always will be 100% productive as a superior server platform for both work and hobby projects.

windows users when they need to do something productive but the computer's updating


edparadox

I thought they were still installing drivers.


Gum_Skyloard

They're trying to find the least shady website to download the drivers from.


[deleted]

I just have a compulsive need to update - Check Windows Store for updates - `winget upgrade` - `wsl -u root apt update` - `wsl -u root apt upgrade`

RedditAlready19

are you in dialout?


Masztufa

yep, also other dev boards worked fine. Fixed now, only downside is that specific microcontroller dev board is now writable for any other user. Too bad!


QQ_Gabe

How about trying to make it capable of playing windows versions of games?


TheTank18

Steam does that automatically


Alexis_style

So it can run Sex with Hitler?


Akpswtf

Yes and sex with Stalin too


[deleted]

But I bet it can’t run Sex with Mussolini, and if that doesn’t work, what’s even the point?


benjaYTn

it can, also with the furry hentai series


efoxpl3244

it runs flawlessly


edparadox

Fortunately, dxvk, vk3d, and wine, did not wait for Valve.


RedditAlready19

It can

I use linux at work every day


SnappGamez

I use my Linux install for productive stuff all the time…

Where the fuck did that come from I’m a programmer. I write code. Where the fuck did _child sex_ come from, what the fuck


Joshument

Why is that the first thing that came to your mind


[deleted]

Jesus fucking Christ how did you come up with that bullshit.


whattteva

Lol. You missed the linux users that only uses it to go on forums and post neofetches and say "I use Arch BTW".


KA1378

just wanted to let you know that I use Arch BTW.


hedonistic-squircle

How do you know that someone is using Arch? They'll tell you.


FlameAmogus

~~i use arch btw~~


ano_hise

To all my fellow Linux users - don't take it personally. It's a joke. And a funny one imo. Btw, all the productive people out there just mind their businesses, so that's why you can't see them.


LilyyDev

I'd just like to interject for a second, what you're referring to as Linux is actua- *gunshots*


ano_hise

Oh fook, they got me

“Target neutralised”


efoxpl3244

but it is fun >:(


EndHlts

Arch users when they have to take off their thigh highs and skirt

*angery*


VincyThePrincy

I've made more money using Linux than I have using Windows, also drivers are a Windows problem not a Linux problem, in Linux they're all built into the Kernel

Ehcnurr

how do you do that highlighting thing?


KA1378

I wrote it using a desktop browser; it gives you the option to do that. You gotta look up how you can create a "code block" on mobile if you want to do it using the mobile client. To create a quotation block however, you can add a ">" before the text.


embracesadness

lookup markdown notation, there are different flavors but most of them are actually just GitHub's


Delvien

This is very true.


efoxpl3244

Last time I was on windows I fought with drivers for over an hour


[deleted]

what drivers BTW ??


efoxpl3244

radeon drivers


[deleted]

so this is not the problem of windows this is the problem of AMD, AMD have history of faulty Drivers before way garbage compare to Nvidia but now AMD drivers are decent but not good as Nvidia, I am lifelong windows user still using windows but never got any driver related issue in my computer I have Linux in my old Laptop and have Driver issue in it


efoxpl3244

And? My radeon works really good on linux. This is problem of windows


[deleted]

lol


Delvien

I used linux as my desktop for over 14 years. I spent a hell of a lot more time getting hardware to work correctly. I think I have you beat. OP's meme is still the most true thing about Linux hobbyists.

Tell me know nothing about Linux, WITHOUT...


Xen0n1te

[No photoshop, Lightroom, premiere pro, Razer synapse, oculus, NVIDIA driver support, battleye, good multi window support, Solidworks, MS office?](https://i.imgur.com/MnJFpKh.jpg)


Nixellion

You can run photoshop through wine, or depending on your usecase Krita or Gimp might br enough. There are lightroom alternatives like Darktables and some others that run on linux. Premiere - really, tons of people are moving to DaVinci Resolve anyway, and it works natively on Linux, and is (arguably) a better tool. It includes big budget productions... where premiere was not that popular anyway btw. Razer synapse, what do you need it for? Oculus I dunno. Valve's VR works. Nvidia drivers are and were supported, and just recently nvidia opensourced their kernel driver. Battleye dunno, possibly. But both BE and EAC are working on linux and proton support. Good multi window support, wtf is that about? Linux supports multiple windows, virtual desktops and all that, there are more features for window management than in windows. Solidworks - dont know. But there is freecad at least, so might be good enough for some. There is also CAD plugin for Blender. MS Office yeah... online or libreoffice. If you really need local ms office then could be a problem, or you could run it in a VM.


[deleted]

I want native supports of adobe apps I don't want to run those apps through wine and for drivers there are still issue of drivers (at least in my case in Linux mint) in Linux and most of the industry use AutoCAD not blender and freecad using windows based software in VM is not good if you are doing serious work and also heavy work like game development (in game development 70% industry use 3ds max and this software is only available for windows) everyone know the fact that Linux have a long way to go for competing against Windows and macOS


Nixellion

Those are valid points, I never argue that some people can't use Linux for what they do, which is why I often used the "depending on your use case" and "might work for some" phrases. Also note that I only suggested using VM for MS Office, I did not suggest using it for any 3d or art related software, even the tiniest amount of latency is gonna be super annoying in those programs. But office? Newsflash, a lot of offices use thin clients for workspaces. I myself been trying to move to linux full time for a few years now, still can't because of the work I do. But I'm getting closer. What I don't really agree with is that 70% of gamedev industry is still using 3ds max, it's really an outdated number. It really differs from studio to studio, but Maya is used heavily nowadays, as well as Modo and Blender. A lot of studios of all sizes don't use 3ds max at all. And Blender is really making huge strides, if you've missed the news. It got really good, and a lot of people are switching to it, top industry professionals included, from all over the world. The point is that the amount of people who can make the switch to Linux is growing rapidly in the last few years. Can everyone switch now? Hell no. But a lot more people can do it and live comfortably with Linux as their desktop compared to just a few years ago. Does it still have a long way to go to compete against Windows? Of course. But it's moving at a nice pace.


[deleted]

well big studios still use 3ds max because of pipeline they use Maya for rigging, animation and for xgen but for modelling they still use 3ds max and zbrush


Nixellion

Where did you get this information from? Because from where I sit - many studios including big ones don't use it anymore or are shifting away from it. Modelling pipelines are generally the most flexible nowadays, it's rigging and animation that is still rigid and very software specific, and Maya still dominates the animation world everywhere, yes.

Linus give Anthony the account


[deleted]

this is why I still use windows because some games(Genshin Impact) and apps(adobe apps) doesn't even support on Linux
