The Taskbar Of Imminent System Failure

Mac users smugly watching the chaos unfold as Windows users deal with yet another catastrophic update. That smirk says it all—sitting comfortably in their walled garden while Windows folks frantically Google "how to rollback update" and "why is my printer suddenly speaking Klingon?" Sure, they paid triple for their hardware, but at least their OS isn't randomly deciding to rearrange the furniture while they're sleeping.

Internet Explorer's sole purpose in life has been reduced to downloading other browsers. The little blue 'e' desperately seeks validation—"Hey does anyone need me?"—only to be met with cold rejection. But then! A glimmer of hope when someone finally needs it... just to download Firefox. The circle of browser life continues. The only time IE gets any attention is when you've formatted your PC and need something—ANYTHING—to download Chrome, Firefox, or literally any other browser. It's like being the ladder that helps someone climb up, only to be kicked away immediately after.

Oh, the face of pure existential pain when someone casually mentions Windows in a room with a Linux user! That neck vein about to pop as they physically restrain themselves from launching into their rehearsed 47-minute TED talk about how they compiled their own kernel just to browse Reddit. Meanwhile, everyone else is just trying to talk about normal human things like weather and sports, but our Linux friend is sitting there, twitching, desperately waiting for someone to ask "so what OS do you use?" Nobody will ask. Nobody ever asks. But they're ready. They're always ready.

Ah yes, the classic "I built a computer but have no way to install an OS" problem. That moment when your engineering prowess meets its match in the form of a USB adapter chain that looks like it came straight from a hardware hacker's fever dream. Nothing says "I'm a professional" quite like downloading Windows through a phone connected to a flash drive via what appears to be three different adapter technologies stacked together like some sort of cursed tech sandwich. The modern equivalent of using stone tools to build a spaceship.

But there are doubts: Many systems will have to be rebuilt from scratch, and there are few Linux experts around. kommersant.rudoc5570730 48 17 237 740 8 Kait i airenni Replying to jakluge You can't throw a political enemy out a fourth-floor Linux, though. 11:09 AM 20 Sep 22 Twitter for Android ProdrammerHumor.io
