@possiblylinux127 @tabular , well, regarding a married couple I know, the wife was away taking care of her granddaughter for a bit, came back to her husband having sketchy people in their home while she was gone. The wife wanted the police to sweep the house for drugs and alleged these people probably brought drugs in their home. The police said there was nothing they can do. Lovely double standards.
Edit: Also, you could smell the pot off the people easily. They were definitely stoned.

@possiblylinux127 @chris Hence their statement "I’d consider btrfs if ...".

@pupbiru @traches , I certainly second this. People don't need to become experts in Linux Distros, but they need to know what they want and need from their OS.

If it's browsing and writing word documents, maybe you don't need a constant stream up updates and a stable LTS would suffice. Maybe even a regular 6 month release like Fedora will probably suffice. Even Debian would be great, if upgrading is annoying and newest software isn't really important.

Gaming? There are distros for that.

@okamiueru @glaber , well it is an issue to fuck up by design. There are third party plugins for ODF for MSO that work better than its own implementation.

I am forced to use MSO for work, but it's LO for everything else of mine.

Edit: One should also see what they can do to make Microsoft improve/fix their ODF implementation since it is an ISO standard. There has to be something to get that ball rolling.

@mr_MADAFAKA , I guess thier developers have some bad spaghetti code and can't debug it enough to work on anything else. And if you were to get it to work, you'd outclass their developers and thus could cheat.

@Psyhackological
Work stations all run Ext4.
Main server: Ext4 on main partition, ZFS RAIDZ2 on the data.
Secondary server: BTRFS on main, BTRFS RAID1 on data.

If BTRFS could natively encrypt and had stable RAID6, I'd be using it probably on everything.

@Wahots @mudle , I hold that same relative feeling, but people do own their computers and if they want to play League of Legends and let someone into the kernel, who am I to tell them no? I ran league in Lutris, so no chance of making that decision even if I wanted to.

@thingsiplay @drwho , as soon as RAID5/6 is fully ready (and I am aware it looks like it'll never be), I'll be switching over to it.

@independantiste @TimeSquirrel , I could be wrong, but Windows NTFS is also incredibly terrible at reading/writing large numbers of small files. Windows explorer can now be opened in different processes, at least that's some improvement.

Edit: There's a reason why game developers create an archive of the files for the game rather than reading them from the FS itself.

@WagnasT @Tekkip20 my experience with switching to Linux was a mix of XP and Vista. My XP machine would get bombed with malware at my University hourly being connected to their wifi, yes my fault sort of. I had absolutely no computer experience and knew nothing about them. I finally gave into Vista. While that stopped the malware bombing, Vista felt like a blob eating my ram. My new friend at uni introduced me to Linux. I'm Autistic, so the whole thing became a special interest.

@GarlicToast @Matty_r , definitely do. With the little money I have, I use this program on 3 machines of mine. The junk mail filter isn't perfect, but actually works compared to Hotmail's junk filter.
