You’re like 20y late with this joke. MS runs their servers on linux nowdays.

They already have WSL and their own Linux distro.

Give them another 5 years and they’ll have rewritten their core to sit on top of unix and will have become a simple commercial linux distro. When buying a windows laptop you will be able to click through 5 yes/no promts, unlock the terminal and yum -S gnome-desktop to break free. No dual boot needed.

You know what’s the worst part? M$ will be the biggest contributor to the kernel. And that’s how linux will die.

how fkd up is the sh1t really out there? This is unheard of.

Some, maybe 1-2% of Windows users keep yelling “I’ma switch to Linux”. They then try it for a few days and give up.

You didn’t matter in the first place, but also you will most likely not make a successful transition anyways.

I just hope that one day Spotify goes premium-only and all of you can go cry somewhere else.

Literally the hero of the music industry, but the whole lemmy takes a dump on them. Man, people on this platform are just all poor and uneducated. So, everything paid is bad, and no idea of what’s actually behind the costs.

Go pirate some mp3s and remember, that despite how disgusting music labels are, if everyone did what you do, your favorite artist would’ve stopped producing their music long-long time ago. So, this simply puts you into the same leeching category with the corpos that you so despise.

nice, thanks to you I have now educated myself: http://run-a-train.urbanup.com/77653

wow,lemmy hates corpos but upvotes this guy, jeez

BS. One new CD is at least 10$. A good band collection is then a year worth of subscription fees. So, do you only listen to a few bands?

Before Spotify I pirated everything. In lossless, ofc. I had 200GB of music, it wouldn’t fit on my ipod classic, and I still was limited.

I pirated at least a lifetime worth of Spotify premium and yet when I switched to Spotify I discovered so many more artists like the ones I already liked. If I now tried to buy all the songs I’ve listened to more than once in the last 5 years, I’d go bankrupt.

Spotify is way cheaper.

(now add ease of discovering new music, listening to whatever your friends want to listen to in a car, collaborative playlists, etc etc)

we absolutely couldn’t now run a few experiments and estimate the weights from them. No that’s some sorcery.

wth, no docker?..

OP blocked JS in the browser like a complete caveperson and came here whining.

FK u and your attitude OP. You, and those overly active pensioners is the reason laundry machines still operate on coins.

Your CC got blocked, call your bank and solve it. When everyone else goes to the laundry and doesn’t have the right coins they should do exactly what? Take a trip downtown to the bank? Your local cigarettes shop isn’t obligated to break you a 20.

Also, explain this to me: I barely use cash and my payments always work. Much less frequently I cannot pay for digital reasons than for “oh fk, I forgot to withdraw cash again”. I remember that being a weekly problem. Nowadays I can withdraw a 100 and not worry about cash for two months. What am I doing wrong that digital payments always work for me?

Because: 1) fairtrade, 2) less revenue from selling you a new device in two years once this one gets obsolete, 3) costs of long-term maintenance, 4) small volumes.

You ever compared a price of fairtrade coffee vs normal one? Yeah, x2. Why? No slave labor, no burned forests, sustainable water usage. But ofc, why would you buy it? It’s double the price.

Meh. I’d say we tie him to a post and burn the heretic.

this is a meta joke based on this video https://youtu.be/AdygBbbEnco

And then eventually you will figure out it was a plot for a world-domination level backdoor, ha.

And yet you’ll still be single.

canonical has a history of massacring their distro in the worst way imaginable. They’re specially gifted in this way.

obligatory xkcd? Nah, you know exactly which one I mean.

Also: “they actually track that I was searching for something illegal, let me rather not do it again”.

Hi, I just bought a Roku streaming box. What should I do next?

we should absolutely all post this.

I wonder if the resulting model will be as easy to get triggered into some unhinged 3-paragraphs rants only loosely related to the query. Good luck, google engineers!
