  The one thing stopping large scale adoption of linux is definitely the lack of options.

    I just want WindowsXP without security risks. If Linux could make a WindowsXP clone, that works with exe files, and works exactly like WindowsXP, except handles modern standards, I would jizz all over the place.

    Yeah. I’m leaving it in as motivation for linux developers. If they don’t want to hear about my jizz spraying like a firehose, they should made LindowsXP.

    SEE??? I EVEN GAVE YOU A GREAT BRAND NAME!

  Theres heaps of stuff that is under-developed or mssing, but they prefer to rewrite working code in Rust, because ideology.

  We are witnessing the death of Linux here, no less, replacing a working kernal with an still undefined language that everyone will have forgotten in 5 years.
