    Yeah that’s another difference. When something breaks on Windows people will do anything to fix it, including reinstalling Windows or buying another machine.

    When something goes wrong on Linux they decide Linux doesn’t work and reinstall Windows.

    I’ve had Windows installs slow down till they take 15 minutes to start. I once clicked the wrong button in Visual Studio and the computer became some kind of remote driver debugging target, permanently. Half the settings broke and every startup it would autologin as a debug user.

    If anything like that happens on Linux it’s proof Linux is too complicated, but on Windows it’s just one of those things.

    Talking to a friend you haven’t seen in a while about what’s new in your life is basically the opposite of "small talk’.

    Only if something unusual has happened. Otherwise it’s just small talk about work and your family’s health. By a certain age there’s basically never anything “new” in your life.

    The fact is hardly anyone publishes on the web anymore. Every time someone complains about Google search I look them up and discover they don’t have a website.

    They have an Instagram and a YouTube and a Facebook and a Twitter account, all of which may or may not be accessible to some degree to a logged out web browser. Never a website though.

    What do they think is going to show up in a search when all the content these days is published in walled garden social media apps?
