    First image is from a film about a submarine…

    Hmm, yes, the US Navy uses Linux on their nuclear subs, this is correct.

    Second image is from a film about a lighthouse…

    Lighthouses indeed have Windows.

    Meme checks out, carry on.

    I have to use Windows at work and I feel like a boomer since I haven’t used it since I was 14/15. I’m constantly looking up the most basic shit like how to overlay calendars in Outlook or change the orientation of a single page in Word.

      I once broke the table of contents for a manual I was writing in MS Word. Spent like 2 days untangling that mess.

    I may have issues I never had on windows but I have way fewer issues and if I mention them online roughly half the time a dude who develops the thing that caused it sees it and, completely unlike any microsoft employee, gives a fuck. I once mentioned that I experienced a bug in the only mbin mobile app in reply to a post that was related to mbin but not the app (directly, anyway) and jwr1, the guy who makes that app, responded asking what it was.

    I recently had to install windows for a research project and the fact the “latest version” i downloaded moments before needed to update while installing and then again needed to update twice after it was installed pissed me off way more than it should.

    Also gotta love that my laptop can go 5+hrs on a charge with arch and xfce but lasts less than 2hrs on windows.

    I just downloaded a .exe file to update a program because I forgot I switched to Linux a while ago
