Looked up “cromulent” in the dictionary. Wasn’t disappointed!!

The chances of a deal are said to be weeks away, if not non-existent.
What kind of non-sentence is that?
A couple of ideas:
Holography is often used to record information from the real world, and in that process it’s impossible to record the light’s phase during the encode step. Physicist’s call it “the phase problem” and there are all kinds of fancy tricks to try to get around it when decoding holograms in the computer. If you’re simulating everything from scratch then you have the luxury of recording the phase as well as the amplitude - and this should make decoding much easier as a result!
A coworker recently sent me a Word document with edits and comments they had added. When I downloaded & opened it (in Word on Windows!) it told me that it had the edits/comments but it wouldn’t let me see them unless I log in to my Microsoft account and then view it online in the web version of Word. What the actual fuck?
Fuck that. I responded to my coworker and asked them to just send me the edits via email in plain text. I’m not winning popularity contests at work, but what the fuck Microsoft?
If you’re nervous about the switch consider dual-booting. Then you’re not fully committed to the switch & you can have your old Windows system back whenever you want it.
Main steps are:

Why is Linux total at 1.95%, but the most popular distros don’t add up to nearly 1.95%? Is it SteamOS making up the difference?

Read the GitHub page. I don’t understand all of it, but what I think I understand sounds great! Proton would be available without Steam!
What’s all of this stuff about “protonfixes” though? What is “protonfixes”? And how is it better with this new launcher?
“Sure, it is not perfect. But, sometimes it is incredibly helpful. No matter what you do with it, unfortunately, it is not an open-source solution.”
This article needed a better ai to write it .
I use Linux at the office. I’m the only employee at my company who does.
I haven’t had many issues collaborating with others using libreoffice while they use MS office. I do keep a Windows VM running for those somewhat rare instances where I need Windows for something though. I also needed to invest quite some time to figure out Linux alternatives for everything (how to use company VPN, how to get MS Teams working, how to connect to network drives, etc).
But so far so good. Been 100% Linux at work for maybe ~1.5 years?
This is fantastic! Gnome is such a great project! Well done!
This will sound silly, but I didn’t realize that governments support open source like this. But it’s such a good idea! It’s similar to governments funding a park or a road any other public resource. Open source projects fit very nicely there!
Maybe I’m misinterpreting, but I don’t think OP’s claims are extraordinary. I think he’s only saying “I’ve noticed Linux can outperform Windows on programs that are optimized for Windows. Kinda unexpected, but here are the benchmarks.”
OP is not claiming that this is true in 100% of cases. For example, in this thread he points out that Windows outperformed Linux on Doom.
You seem to be really ruffling feathers with these comparison tests. Who’d have thought they’d be so controversial?
Thanks a lot for posting! I find them interesting!
Ha ha… Yeah… I’ve noticed this too. Human psychology is weird.
That’s great!! Glad to hear it!
Since you mention it, I’ll add that teams-for-linux works better for me than the official MS Teams in the browser. And for MS Office I haven’t had any trouble using LibreOffice as a replacement.
https://www.protondb.com/ is an excellent resource. Before you commit to Linux, look up your favorite games there to double check that they’ll work.
My personal experience is basically all games work on Linux. To the point I don’t even look games up on protondb before I buy. The exceptions seem to be multiplayer FPS games which use anti-cheat (but I don’t play those kinds of games).
What’s the “Bandcamp situation”?
This sounds amazing!!! Too bad it’s gone…
