On one hand, maybe. On the other tho, a lot of parents are gamers themselves with big steam libraries. That can be really good argument for steam machine, and also Valve has brand loyalty on par with Sony or Microsoft, just not in consoles (yet).

While true overall, I was more going for the fact that people buy Ninendo because they want to buy Nintendo rather than because they want any random console. Meanwhile Sony and Microsoft are fighting for the same consumer - someone who wants an alternative to PC gaming. Which is also what Steam Machine is.

I am honestly curious how do Sony and Microsoft react internally to Valve deciding to get their part of cake. Nintendo shouldn’t care, their cake is a separate cupcake at the top anyway, but Sony and Microsoft are directly in the line of fire.

I even mentioned Mint and that it drops problems to lower level, so? My grandma barely grasped the concept of a browser and had problems understanding how to use google.

And sure as hell when she got some custom-software disc from hospital with embedded images from her x-ray or whatever it’s called, I wouldn’t want her to need to also deal with Linux possibly not being able to run it.

Heh, I’m literally in the same boat as you - testing distros and such. And I studied programming for some time so I have above average tech literacy and yet still I had to spend some time learning how to get old wi-fi on a laptop to work (thankfully well documented), and I still have to tinker with which distro will be best for my hardware as it’s not only kinda old, but also I have nvidia card and some wierd wifi so I am ready for things to be weird.

And I hope I didn’t come off as saying that Linux is some insurmountable wall for everyday folk in original comment but as you pointed out - everyday folk ain’t willing to deal with any problems in the first place.

XKCD comic about specialists expectations towards everyday folk come to mind xD

> Ask

And then ask again each and every single time something doesn’t work. Or you need to install something. Something is badly configured.

You need at least medium level tech literacy to deal with Linux. Maaaaybe entry level with Mint and the like, but still, if you get skittish due to console, at which 70% of worlds population at minimum does, Linux ain’t for you.

Windows is successful because it’s easy to understand and holds your hand as much as possible. People who are complaining are quite often folk who are simply forced to use it, most people don’t really see anything wrong, even those using tech more…

Now that you mention it…

Elementary had none of this, middle was full of it, high had mostly none of this. Huh.

I kinda wanna hate that but, while pricy, it…it would be good, wouldn’t it? It’s Valve after all. It wouldn’t be astounding. But it would be stable, reliable, accessible…

All dreams as of now but…

Eh, when I grew up there were cool oldies you wanted to hang out with so who knows, maybe that’s the commenter? xD

Why would anyone seriously dress nicely to look “better”? Is the world that insecure?

Why would anyone take care of their health to look “better”? Is the world that insecure?

Welcome to society where you are being forced to comply with societal expectations. Which is bullshit, and thankfully we are killi g it off bit by bit, but yeah.

At this point I believe that USA reds are so focused on remaining in power, because to do the shit they’ve done they basically all became criminals and the moment they lose power is the moment they’ll have to face consequences.

And, simply wanting power aside, they’re scared shitless of that.

But it paints a really grim picture for USA, because the most dangerous animal is the cornered one - as soon as they’ll start actually losing, they will drag ya all to hell :/

Now you put a stupid idea in front of me of Musk doing shit for the common folk just because no one in the higher class wants to have to deal with him, just to stroke his ego and make it to history books.

Ultimate pettiness that would benefit the whole world.

Worst part is, some naive part of me believes this idiot is capable of that. xD

I fully agree that feminism is bad for You. Like, you specifically, Toasted xD

Time to start responding to Linux posts with “Just use Windows, lol” xD

Draw the rest of the owl ass instruction xD

“balance the herbs”, “when it seems ready, add noodles”, not even gonna mention having a lot of spices and all that.

Do not take this as me criticising youe instruction - it may be good! For people that know what are they doing. xD

And also, still a lot longer than just stir-fry or bakin/roastin.

I literally wanted to argue with top level comment about the fact that in Linux everything is fucking disconnected and a lot of placement makes some sense from technical PoV but sure as hell not from “I dunno what I’m doin” PoV.

But then this comment snapped me out of it. Control Panel in Windows is no more. I forgot as I still default to it on Win 10. They fucked up one of the most important parts of why Windows was better for green folk. :<

Meat with some texture - not slimy or watery. So this limits me, personally, quite a bit. And if I have to throw meat on the pan and then throw it into a soup…what’s the point of soup, just add veggies to pan and stir fry it xD

I need to add, I don’t like cooking that much so I focus on least time in kitchen possible.

And still, cooking takes a lot longer than frying and I guess similiar time like doing things in the oven? And is still more complicated than both of these, as you can both fry and bake.roast with just salth and pepper and things still taste good.

I am amazed by people willing to cook soups constantly. Mostly because it’s such a long process compared to just throwing shit in the pan, or even throwing shit in the oven. :|

I also hate cooked meat due to it’s texture, but that’s on me xD

See ya on Windows 7 with 0patch micropatches :D

Copilot via Edge xD
