I've found HN through /r/programmingcirclejerk and thought no one would be so out of touch with reality, not even Steve Jobs, but this is golden.

I'm so sorry my self "taught" grammar is so bad, I must invest money in proper foreign language schooling just so I could appease some random dipshit on hackernews.

Same guy who complained about entering root password to set up printer? Yeah. Linux fans are fast to go "lol m$ UAC", but their shitty UX with entering root password every 10 minutes is "securiteh!!!". :))

> If you want the latest and greatest of everything, you could use Arch Linux.

You're kidding me, right? https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/community.git/log/trunk?h...

There's sometimes weeks before node is updated.

Updating PostgreSQL from 9.6.1 to 9.6.2 took 4 months.

And right now .net core build is failing on my archlinux test server.

If you want latest - use macOS with brew

0.2% desktop users agree. Continue live in your strange bubble, just stop mentioning linux to normal folk.

Install git without requiring root privileges... Also git is a 3rd party application, yet somehow all distros treat git as part of base system/OS bundle/whatever, so Fedora 25 has set version of 2.9, 24 of 2.7, etc. WHY. WHY. It's third party software, not part of your god damn OS - there should be only one version of git in the repos for ALL FEDORA VERSIONS - and that would be the latest... Come the fuck on.

Replace "git" with every other package....

Linux is so amateur hour with all plainly stupid decisions, I'd rather pay good money for proper unix.

Because you can upgrade from windows 3.11 all the way to 10, good luck with ubuntu.

Yeah, I see your point.

Not really news, saying "linux distro chases ideas to rewrite instead of sticking to one thing and fixing it and that's why linux desktop won't ever happen" is like saying "grass is green".

Because we solve practical problems, and do not nit pick of what is technically correct. We are not drones and easily understand that in this context it's megabytes.

Just look at all that "technically it's mebibytes bla bla bla" in replies. No one cares. Write some code. Or better - go outside.

Original comment sounds more like google's shill comment, to be honest. Because iPhones take pictures instantly too (although they have a quick ui feedback), and it's either hard to believe that attendant never touched iPhone, which is, like, well, the most popular phone ever; or it's indeed that pixel doesn't indicate in any way that it has taken the picture.

> X11 runs really well these days -- responsive, fast, reliable

Well, you haven't seen Windows then - the graphics stack is phenomenal and a marvel of engineering. nVidia drivers crash? I only get a second of black screen and then resume my work. Yep, that's right - no other GUI program crashed, I didn't had to do anything, literally just 1 second of black screen.

Oh and you can have one window on two monitors and both parts of window will have full vsync - insane, huh? :)

It's scary how good Windows is.

No, wasting time for two open minded users instead of working for 99,999% users is inexcusable.

Those linked benchmarks are useless. https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2017/03/amd-ryzen-review/

I'd take Intel CPU that runs 120 FPS average over AMD that runs 130 FPS average, when lowest FPS for Intel drops to 100 FPS and for AMD it drops to 80 FPS...

Submissions

No updates for old Windows with new CPUs
