  I dare you to prescribe Linux to someone suffering from a headache

    Damn dude, that headache is bright to you by your continued use of Windows. That doesn’t happen in Linux.

    As long as you recommend a basic distro it’s fine, most people will never notice the problems of Linux.

    Ubuntu rightfully gets a lot of hate but it’s pretty easy for noobs to use.

  More like installing a subcutaneous implant

  “It’s easy, man. You just need to inject this needle under your skin. What do you mean you’re uncomfortable doing that? Anybody can do it. And if you don’t like it, you can just use the same needle to pull the pill back out and you’ll be back where you started, no harm done. Now, there’s about 48 different pills you can choose from that vary in performance and legitimacy. I use Grafff (yes, with 3 Fs, two Fs is the legacy version), but you could start with NBOSC or RBOSC or LBOSC. But you could also try Flan or Yellow Welly. You could try Trim, but it takes some getting used to not having eyes. Honestly, its not that bad though. Anyway, once you have QBOSC (I mentioned QBOSC, right? It meant replace RBOSC but they split and are just two different things now) you’ll need to find this thing called DaemonFlare to make your legs work so you can play games and stuff. The whole thing should take like 20 minutes… or 9 days to work out the issues”

    This is funny. You’re getting heavily downvoted because it’s criticizing Linux. I don’t actually agree with the sentiment. Though I get how people might have that perception. Still, this is funny.

      But what part is inaccurate? Its easy if you know how to do it and daunting if you don’t.

        The same thing could be said about doing laundry.

  Then you open the bottle and find it’s filled with different types of pills of various sizes, colors, and markings.

  “Umm… So which one of these do I take?”

  And then you get 20 different answers.

    And they’re ALL super sure of their answer

    And that is correct. Headaches are different. Some people are helped by aspirin. Aspirin comes in different forms, as pill, powder, stick, in different doses. Other people maybe need Ibuprofen or Paracetamol or even harder pain medications. Those also come in different forms and doses. So every of those 20 answers is correct and you need to find out what works for you.

    The world is complex and you need to find out what works for you. The idea that one OS or one distro is perfect for everyone on this planet is wrong just as the idea that one medication in one specific dose can be perfect for a complex illness like headaches for every of those 8.5 billion people on this planet. You have to be willing to find what works for you - or just keep suffering from headaches.

    It’s almost like people have several unique sets of needs for an operating system and the community works to fill those voids as best as possible with no expectation of financial gain and so things aren’t as polished because of it.

    But the company with near unlimited budget can’t figure out how to keep their OS from deleting people’s files and crashing.
