Go to hp website and download crapware thats gonna search for drivers for you. Make sure to install symantics bullshit, amd catalyst bullshit, hp battery bullshit and other useless crap too.

Meanwhile linux boots to a perfectly running computer first time with no icons in the tray.

    It seems like alottaaaaaa people on lemmy specifically haven't used windows in the past several years. Built in AV is pretty much king on windows. Almost all drivers auto install even Nvidia albeit not the latest nvidia sometimes. Ten has built in battery options. You're speaking about prebuilts and trying to spin the narrative. Windows 10 is a great OS, it's hilarious how people attempt to pretend it's not.

    You forgot the part where you have to look up what to write in the terminal whenever you want to do something, but I forgive you, it's easy to forget something you need to do daily.

    You take the mouse and do clicky clicky. Luckily theres usually one control panel on linux in contrast to three more and more legacy versions in windows where you need to go three levels deep in order to change the local ip address.

    You probably never used Linux. Or you used it 20 years ago.

    Last time was... Oh... 4 months ago, before my RPi was put in storage?

    You realise the comment I was replying to was "I bet you never used Linux or you used it 20 years ago" and I simply replied to that and you're the one who decided to shift the conversation to talk about ARM vs x86/64 and their compatibility with other OS... Right? You realize you derailed the conversation?

    RIGHT?

    No one except you is talking about using Linux on specific hardware and I was replying to a question after I talked about having to look up what to enter in the terminal, which is the same experience no matter if isn't ARM or x... God damn, how do you manage to tie your shoelaces in the morning?

    If you have to do that to install anything, it's either always your package manager or something that can be copy-pasted from the included installation guide.

    You don't even need the terminal in most cases. You have GUIs. Simple ones.

    I'd rather have to type a line than struggle with installing 10 pieces of unnecessary bloatware individually
