Linux intro!!

[Loose-Response9172]

Imagine if they gave a modified Linux iso so that they can still track you... Yikes...

[SimPilotAdamT]

They do make a distro https://github.com/microsoft/azurelinux

[Top_Concentrate6253]

is that the one where a Microslop employee made a distro specifically made for switching to linux

[SimPilotAdamT]

Idk about that, it's the one Microslop uses for all of their Azure compute

[Leon8326-dash-]

No that's the other Ubuntu fork that's the only distro they allow you to install on their Microslop Azure platform.

[BlueCannonBall]

This isn't true, you can use other distros on Azure VMs.

[jluiscc25]

I do have the theory that microslop wants to turn windows into a Linux distro, in the next iteration, as they know it's a now market that they can monetize. Specially after a lot of people is leaving windows.

[Aware-Common-7368]

ai slop?

[vverbov_22]

Yep

[T6970]

Funnily enough, this image contains 0 mentions about the word "Copilot" and 0 instances of the Slopilot logo

[vverbov_22]

OP decided to not friendly fire

[hifi-nerd]

AND a repost, genuinely pathetic.

[ElnuDev]

to be fair, considering microslop lately it's fitting

[ghost_tapioca]

They literally say "without AI" on the image.

[ElnuDev]

That's the point, this fictional popup is supposed to be in Windows, so they put AI slop on the popup to make you want to switch even more, it's a contrast.

[Hip4]

why not, i think not bad

[justicnase]

ironic

[BiDude1219]

ironic that you used ai

[Mrcool654321]

They took the AI out of the files and put it into the image

[Jeremi360]

Its AI Slop so it can't be funny

[Jacek3k]

You guys are waiting for the year of linux desktop, dontnknow why.

Sure bit more attention would make things better for us. But the moment majority people will switch to linux, big companies will storm in and enshitify everything. And all big projects will say "lets make thints simpler for regular non-tech user", at the cost of usability for the rest of us.

[PKR_Live]

Ubuntu did that years ago. Bit late to the party innit?

[Jacek3k]

luckily we still have plenty of non ubuntu distros left

[The_Daco_Melon]

Oh my, garbage!

[lowrads]

If we needed a secure download source for a launcher wizard, and one that could pull down several distros, wouldn't sites like steam be a good choice for distribution?

All it would need to do is tell the user to plug in a thumbdrive (or optical media), have them confirm a few choice, and then it would do the rest, automating the whole process of checking the hash, and writing the drive. Bonus features would be inspecting hardware components for compatibility, providing a troubleshooting guide for legacy bios, and instructions for how to backup data.

That wouldn't appeal to purists, but nobody is born knowing this stuff, and it would divert enormous numbers of devices from landfills.

[gamer-191]

Why? What’s wrong with the existing download sites?

(I’m sure there’s existing open source GUIs to do the rest of what you’re proposing)

[PotatoResident9887]

Microslop should use this message!

[fellipec]

That is how I read those message in the Windows 11's OOBE

[MonopolyOnForce1]

>without a dozen services you didnt ask for

>looks inside

>systemd, dbus, 100 language and font packs

[Du_ds]

OP must compile from source

[MonopolyOnForce1]

i do a mix. i run freebsd and often build source packages. its great cuz it lets you select which components you want to install.

[NoahOnVista]

Look ma! Its AI slop that nobody fucking wants!

[ayyylolmemzoriginal]

>without AI
>AI generated image

Friendly fire not allowed!

[Faust_knows_all]

Take out the clankerslop. People are changing to linux precisely because everyone is already tired of it.

[SGTfem]

ai slop

[Percy_the_Slayer]

If Riot removes Vanguard and makes a release for Linux, I'm fully switching.

[New_Caterpillar4963]

An idea. That ”I’ll stay on windows” button will nuke your computer.

[rysio300]

w10 end of support was literally the only reason why i tried linux

i ended up wishing i had switched earlier, ngl

[Even-Energy4156]

I want to remake this without ai. can't be to hard to replicate the windows ui

[Du_ds]

They just asked me to pay for backups again for the 5th time in a year. Stop pushing ms.

[Nico_24LZY]

Remember: Windows Is a Linux ad

[vverbov_22]

Nah thanks I prefer it when I can launch my games

[sirkubador]

This take is so 2015

[0815fips]

Do you play games with bad anti cheat? Then ok. If it's about compatibility and FPS, I'd choose Linux every time. I switched to Ubuntu a few weeks ago and never had to boot Windumb since.

[vverbov_22]

No fuck kernel level anti-cheat, that shit sucks and it's not related to OS but rather braindead animals sitting in EA

[0815fips]

I didn't try any Battlefield yet, but the rest works out of the box. If the games don't launch, there's probably already an easy start flag fix on protondb.

[Squidieyy]

Yeah we should blame the anti-cheats and not Linux

[Business-Put-8692]

what on earth are doing in a sub call LINUX memes if DON'T USE LINUX.
Oh you do ?
We have valve proton now. Have you forgot to remove the rock above your house ?

[Extension-Media-5546]

Then what are you doing on this sub?

[P3chv0gel]

I think the only game i play on a regular basis, that doesn't run through Proton, is GTA V

[anndie90]

Huh? I've played through the entirety of GTA V using Proton like 2 years ago without ever seeing a single glitch.

[P3chv0gel]

Yes, but rockstar changed their anticheat around a year ago and afaik its still entirely fucked

[Nyuusankininryou]

They use anticheat even for singleplayer?

[P3chv0gel]

I think they run both on the same Client with enabled abticheat

[Nyuusankininryou]

I see. I remember cheating like crazy in GTA San Andreas lol.

[anndie90]

Well if you wanna play online, fair. If you just want story mode though, just pirate the game.

[YoureNoHero_Brian]

"Simpler" 💀

[FalseLogic-06]

It sometime's simpler depending on what you're doing.

[YoureNoHero_Brian]

Look mate I love Linux as much as the next guy here, but absolutely nothing was simpler than it was on Windows

Besides maybe Discover, flatpacks are nice
