This a joke my man ? Are you seriously saying Linux is only good for browsing the internet ?
>(I work at Microsoft)
There it is.
- rcarmo 5y agoI am also an old VAXer, been through the Slackware dozens-of-floppies ritual, and have been primarily on a Mac for nearly twenty years. Your characterization of who I am and why I use what I use is woefully incomplete :)
- qorrect 5y ago> been through the Slackware dozens-of-floppies ritual I see you know the old ways :). To each their own, I still find myself most productive as a developer on a linux machine.
- webmobdev 5y agoA relative used to take me to his office sometimes (after hours) so I could learn / play on the computers. One day, he gave me a task - he was installing Windows 95 and my job was to insert each floppy when the installer demanded it. That was fun the first few times ... :)
- garbagecoder 5y agoNice ad hominem. In reality there is all kinds of productive work that you simply cannot do on Linux or at least not outside of some joke programs like Gimp. Developing on Linux is nice
- hammyhavoc 5y agoIf you can't produce great work with tools like Krita and GIMP then the problem isn't the tools.
