He does it this way in order to make Linux look bad. It's happened so many times this way, I don't know why people don't see it. He either approaches it like a complete noob and deliberately makes mistakes that anyone that's used a computer for as long as he has wouldn't think of making, or he has some "disaster" that he blames on Linux.
Then he does his "more in sorrow than anger" schpiel where he pats the Linux devs on the head and thanks them for trying but too bad they failed miserably, he was really hoping they'd do better this time. Oh, well, back to Windows I guess. Just wait for the cheque from Satya to show up in the post.
Downvote away, you LTT bumboys. At this point, between the way he runs his business and his examples of blatant theivery, if you're still a fan of this chucklefuck, I don't know if you're worth saving.
He's a bumbling moron in everything he does. I don't know if it's a schtick or if it's just how he is. You have to be pretty technologically illiterate to take any cues from him.
I'm not extending the "don't attribute to malice what can be explained by stupidity" meme to him anymore. At this point it's obviously malice wrapped in greed.
So please list down everything he does that you claim to be deliberate mistakes that anyone that's used a computer for a long time wouldn't think of making and how they caused the issues he is having in this video. He is literally roleplaying as a Linux noob and not an expert or as someone with the connection to breeze through any problem he has, so I don't know why you're so surprised.
They literally had Linus Torvalds on last month and he was gushed over the entire time, the comments in here are unhinged.
