My main concern is support and delay b/w security patches the OS will introduce. I’m making a wild guess, but I think they should have lot older hardware devices and from performance pov, they should benefit given latest Windows are not that great on older devices and older win versions have already reached EOL.
If they do get it right, they probably need to retrain their staff to be able to use other apps like Libre Office and more.
The cost at which India achieves these accomplishments are a fraction of what other Space Agencies. It’s something they should be proud of.
I went through the link and the entire fact that the article is using a small remote town to justify it with the entire India’s population is mind boggling to me. As someone from data science background, it just reeks as falsehood as no accurate source of data, sampling of such large pop and etc are mentioned.
Death by cheese got real!
It is expected that there are corrections in numbers after a huge spike. The bigger goal will be to sustain this community.
Yes. I have done so many installs of Windows 10 LTSC in the last few years and even on HDD it doesn’t take that much time.
This is a legit troll post. Despite Linux being better in some aspects, Windows totally steamrolls Linux on being easy to install.
Heck W10 LTSC has been super smooth and stable for me for the past 2 years on my work machine which I tend to use more than my Personal Laptop which runs Manjaro.
Yup. If you are updating on regular intervals it works pretty well.
I see most of these tools are more to prevent them from going broke. A GUI recovery tool which is distro-agnostic would be gold honestly .
Thanks for informing. Will be definitely trying it.
Second suggestion for SilverBlue today. Maybe I will try it out once I have enough time on hand to backup my system and then restore.
Woah. Didn’t knew about this. Looks very promising.
I wouldn’t say that tbh. Sure it has some issues, but it has been stable enough for me for the past 2+ years.
Honestly, the current DEs like GNOME and KDE are at the point that they can be driven by your avg user without much efforts.
So polishing these parts of the system will really help in adoption.
Tbh, Linux atm needs a good way to restore incase something goes wrong. The rule to use a USB stick and then chroot and fix is not the best idea.
A week ago I ran into issue where my Storage ran full (I was downloading+ manjaro was updating in BG) and then apparently the system didn’t boot up coz of this. It took me sometime to realise this issue and fix it.
You can’t expect an avg user to be able to perform so much.
Another incident, My friend somehow ended up in a state with no kernel installed and thus couldn’t boot up.
Well, I am just pointing out the problem with the article given its coming from BBC. If you could link something with much better sources, please do.
