Sic? You don't understand the argument at all then. Buy computers that were designed for and ship with Linux, and with support you can call to get help. Modern hardware is far too complex to handle multiple OSes without a major effort.

Turns out you get what you pay for. You can either get hardware that works or you can deal with breakage.

If you have sleep and power management issues l, your hardware does not support Linux. This is not a Linux issue, it's a "I bought a Windows computer, slapped Linux on it, and expected that to work" issue.

System76 is my go-to. There are others. You can even get some major vendors (Dell, Lenovo) to ship with Linux preinstalled, though I don't know if the firmware or chips diverge from the Windows variants.

This is true. Until people pay reliably for Linux hardware instead of Windows, that will always be the case, just as it is for Mac. Just like Mac, though, the key is to buy from a vendor that ships hardware designed for Linux, with Linux pr

This is why you buy computers designed for Linux, with Linux preinstalled, and with support that you can call to get help if there is an issue.

> Full hardware support is still not a given, If you're not buying your hardware from a vendor you can call and get support with Linux from, you're going to have a hard time.

Or pony up for CodeWeavers. Their code goes into WINE, and they are (the?) major WINE devs. They've had bottles for years, if not decades now.

Not of you don't buy Windows hardware and slap Linux on it. Unfortunately, most (almost all) hardware is Windows hardware. So far, System76 is the only one that I've had actually work.

If you (or whoever is reading this) want(s) a more refined Wine, I highly recommend CodeWeavers. Their work gets folded back into open source WINE, no less. > To get to a better state, we've gotta confront those workarounds and atta

Sort of. The Dems laughing at the Reps voting out their own speaker was interesting on several levels.

Not every, but way too many. If you're truly one of the few, congrats. I've seen the chairs switch way too many times to be anything but cynical.

You can always give your government (including schools) extra money if you think they need it more than you do, or if you think they can use it better than than you can. Taxes just force everyone else to give the government money.
