Going to be honest here

Windows is good for general professional use. Linux is absolutely terrible. MacOS is also decent.

Professionals use windows because everyone knows how it functions, it has robust and supported user management and Microsoft provides significant enterprise support to companies using their operating system.

Linux only has some of those features, they’re often half-assed or unsupported, and there’s no central authority for help.

It’s fine for personal machines, but I absolutely disagree that the only thing windows has going for it is popularity.

Darktable is fine as a hobbyist, but it doesn’t fully replace Lightroom when you get into semi-professional and professional workloads.

I need to give it another try, but my 12TB raw file library is so unwieldy to manage that I haven’t tried importing it all there. Plus the AI generative removal and Denoising is pretty important to a lot of my workflows.

The games that sit at the top of the player counts are almost always multiplayer competitive games. In a lot of ways, there’s been nearly 0 movement in the space at all since covid. The same games are still right there at the top because no new massively multiplayer game has released to top them. FPS players play CoD, Apex, Fortnite and Pubg, Dota is massive in Asian countries, GTA V has a huge cult following (check out its twitch category).

Satisfactory being top 10 is an outlier rather than the norm, being a single player game.

I agree with the other commenter who said that players of these games consider themselves players of Apex/CoD/Pubg before they consider themselves overall gamers. That’s the case with me now, and I rarely launch anything outside of CoD or Apex as I have little to no interest in single player games.

Generally these computer systems do access control, patient charting, intake management and most other critical functions, just like the rest of the world.

Blood banks and controlled medicines are likely gated behind access controlled doors, and without either it could cause major impacts to the ability to save lives

It looks interesting

I’m not sure how much I’ll end up playing it as I’m primarily an iRacing user, but it’s great to see something new in the community that isn’t some rf2 reskin by Motorsport games

Do something worth applauding and maybe people will give credit. They consistently make choices and decisions that fans, drivers and teams are not a fan of and then wonder why everyone hates them.

I mean Scott Speed was slow, so you never know

Got a bunch of friends with them, across the board everyone hates the CVT

Manuals are for the fun cars, not the dailys

Different people enjoy cars different ways. For many it’s just a tool to get from point A to point B. These are the majority, and tend to be a crowd who is now trending towards EVs and Self Driving Vehicles.

For others, driving is about the experience of how the car meets the road and is much less about the destination. I just planned a 10 hour drive with a group of my car friends with no destination, we’re just doing it to get out on some fun roads with our cars. These type of people love our manual transmissions, ICE cars and the experience of driving and see the car as less of a tool and more of a hobby and something to bring groups together.

Tbh I hate them.

They just look wrong and seem to have no background

Linux is still not viable for creative work, office work or competitive gaming, 3 of the most important uses of computers.

I’d love to see Linux be more widespread, but until I can play any game, use my required abobe products and run Microsoft office it’s pretty much a useless operating system. Open source alternatives don’t exist for many uses, or if they do they’re a significantly worse experience
