🎉🎉🎉

Yet another major release that fails do support basic Win32 APIs available since Windows 95 properly.

🎉🎉🎉

Still ReactOS performs better in basic Win32 APIs… makes no sense.

Fedora, Arch, or EndeavourOS? >>>> Debian + GNOME + Flatpak.

In communism there’s no space for the concept of family / family unit as there’s with the center-right and right-wing ideologies. To communists, or any other extremist regime, children are mostly state property that must be indoctrinated as soon as possible to follow the leadership’s mindset otherwise the system wouldn’t work.

There’s a difference between Linux on the desktop (a pile of shit) and Linux on the server (the way to go). Get over it. It hurts but it’s true.

Now I’m gonna tell you what nobody talks about when moving to Linux:

3. Proprietary/non-Linux apps provide good features, support and have tons of hours of dev time and continuous updates that the FOSS alternatives can’t just match.

The difference is that there’s a lot of commercial support when it comes to supporting Linux servers due to many reasons, when it comes to the desktop it simply isn’t there.

If you require “professional” software such as MS Office, Adobe Apps, Autodesk, NI Circuit Design and whatnot Linux isn’t a viable options. The alternatives wont cut it if you require serious collaboration… virtualization, emulation (wine) may work but won’t be nice. Going for Linux kinda adds the same pains of going macOS but 10x. Once you open the virtualization door your productivity suffers greatly, your CPU/RAM requirements are higher and suddenly you’ve to deal with issues in two operating systems instead of just one. And… let’s face it, nothing with GPU acceleration will ever run decently unless big companies start fixing things - GPU passthroughs and getting video back into the main system are a pain and add delays.

To make things worse the Linux desktop development ecosystem is essentially non existent. The success of Windows and macOS is the fact that they provide solid and stable APIs and development tools that “make it easy” to develop for those platforms and Linux is very bad at that. The major pieces of Linux are constantly and ever changing requiring large and frequent re-works of apps. There aren’t distribution “sponsored” IDEs (like Visual Studio or Xcode), userland API documentation, frameworks etc.

I completely agree with you, no discussion there. Active monitoring is required. Backup in 3-2-1 would solve the same source batch issue. Some backups should be kept spun down / cold storage so the likelihood of failure at the same time is close to none. Still I would mix the production and backups HDDs to avoid that.

And in my professional life: You are paying for the warranties and support contracts. If you can’t afford to run your own storage then you should just call Amazon and ask for a good deal.

Oh yeah. Or don’t have storage at all, because if you can’t afford it you most likely don’t need it :P
