Crowdstrike has a lot of internal control of your machine in order to do things like hook into the processes you are running to observe any malicious activity. It makes sense that a bug could bring the whole system down.

I will never understand how some people have no morals and will purposely enact laws to make people’s lives worse.

You misspelled “pity”

Driver issues usually only happen if the manufacturer doesn’t provide a Linux driver. Usually it is best to do some research to ensure the hardware will work before purchasing. Otherwise, the driver usually is included with the kernel so it is plug and play even for things that require manually downloading and installing on the Windows side.

Also, I’m not trying to get on any high horse. I personally think Linux is a great alternative to Windows and would love for everyone to at least try it out and see if it is right for them. It could save them tons of headaches and open the door to a new skill set, or just to breathe new life into that old laptop in your closet gathering dust. Linux has a lot of great uses that aren’t possible with Windows. Give peas a chance.

It’s a boil the frog scenario. Windows users will always cope with more and more shit thrown at them.

For your line of work, maybe not. But who cares? They can hire more employees or pay them overtime.

We aren’t machines. What’s the point of life if all we ever do is work? Are we working to live, or living to work? A 32 hour work week makes it a 4/3 day split instead of a 5/2 day split. Seems a lot more balanced if you ask me.

I often dream of that alternative universe where Bernie became president instead of Biden…

Yes.

Sunk cost fallacy and tribalism.

Can Trump just die already?

That is how years work.

The tree one… Hands down

Am I the only one who first thought that the dog in the picture was wearing shoes?

Actually nevermind you’re right. Dumb people never had an ad blocker on in the first place :D

Youre giving them too much credit. Most will just accept fate and deal with the ads.

Nah, most people are dumb, they will just continue to complain and assume there is nothing they can do.

That shouldn’t be a gripe on Linux, it should be a gripe on game developers not supporting Linux. This is like blaming Nintendo when your Switch emulator on the PC isn’t working right.

But I don’t want to die!

Yeah it was also great because it integrated with Google TV well. The recent game you played was integrated with the “ongoing watch” list. So you can quickly pick up and play just like a TV show you’ve been watching. I thought for sure that was genius and would make playing video games more mainstream for people who don’t really play video games. That was the audience Google should have pivoted towards to keep it afloat. Oh well…

The controller is actually very nice. It is a shame Google killed stadia, it was a nice service to supplement the few games I wanted to play that I couldn’t get on Nintendo, without having to go out and buy an Xbox or PlayStation. But I guess the steam deck now fills that void.
