I've been living in Linux-land for the last 30 years, and I've never really believed my wife when she says that updates just break things and tries to avoid them to no end.
Why does Microsoft do that? It seems like it would be bad for business.
You have been using Linux for the past 30 years but you are shocked that updates can break things? What?
It happened once in the last ten years (thanks Nvidia). But I just rolled back to my previous btrfs snapshot and kept on computing until it was fixed a day or two later.
But forced breaking updates the first Tuesday of every month sounds like a really bad user experience.
Things were different back in the 90s before loadable kernel modules. Online updates weren't much of a thing, either. You'd just install that new slackware release over your old root partition anyway.
So you do know about it? Also what about the first twenty?
I have the memory of a goldfish with poor memory. I can't recall any other big breaks in the last 20. I'm sure there's been some since, but trivial enough to fix and forget about.
Yeah no OS is immune to broken stuff. Sigh, I can't figure out how to fix my Linux phone after being dumb enough to try to install vs code for classes. Can't upgrade to the next version because of it.
Man I want to switch so bad but there's games that I can't play on linux
If it’s anticheat, fuck those games off. Kernel level anti-cheat is essentially a rootkit. Fuck that.
The way things are going on 11, you won't be able to play them there soon either.
