[–] Mihies@programming.dev 1 point 2 years ago (3 children) What is your problem with Windows, though? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] InvertedParallax@lemm.ee 1 point 2 years ago (2 children) Meh, not nearly as configurable as linux, some things you can't change. NFS beats SMB into a cocked hat. You start spending more time in a terminal on linux, because you're not dealing with your machine, you're always connecting to other machines with their resources to do things. Yeah a terminal on windows makes a difference, and I ran cygwin for a while, it's still not clean. Installing software sucks, either having to download or the few stuff that goes through a store. Not that building from source is much better, but most stuff comes from distro repos now. Once I got lxc containers though, actually once I tried freebsd I lost my windows tolerance. Being able to construct a new effective "OS" with a few keystrokes is incredible, install progarms there, even graphical ones, no trace on your main system. There's just no answer. Also plasma is an awesome DE. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Mihies@programming.dev 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) Ah, ok, I thought you were taking about Windows not being able to run CPU at full speed. But yes, it's certainly a different OS with ups and downs. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] InvertedParallax@lemm.ee 1 point 2 years ago Well, it can't run multithreaded jobs at full speed. Exhibit A: The latest AMD patch for multicore scheduling across NUMA. permalink fedilink source parent
