Don’t know why you’re being downvoted. Truth hurts I guess? I have worked in IT for more than 25 years, installed Slackware from floppies in the 90s and have tried Linux countless times since. Every. Single. Time I end up wasting my time trying to fix hardware drivers or being forced to accept the programs I want to use don’t work on Linux and the alternative programs are just plain worse.

Oh and I have used Debian, Ubuntu, RedHat, Fedora, Mint, Slackware, Pop! Os, Alpine, Gentoo.

Phoenix Project and Unicorn Project are about non technical skills. Very entertaining books as well.

Except book #2 I fully agree, these are great books to read for someone who wants to grow their non technical skills.

It’s fine to refuse to help, but offering your unsolicited opinion on windows instead of helping is just rude.

I know you think you’re being clever. But what you really are is arrogant. Telling someone the answer to their problem is to do as you do, instead of helping them with their issue.

That’s great but all it takes is some of your blood relatives to submit their genetic data and they can calculate your genetics to a degree that is accurate enough.

Did you even read the article? It literally states that this is cheap and abundant.

Thank you. I was about to say the same. Subscribe to office 365 and get the business version of Teams. Even if privacy is a requirement, what’s wrong with teams?

Here in Denmark we have zero carpool lanes. I think pretty much nobody carpools here. At the same time we have highly functional public transportation in most cities and in the largest cities we have trains, busses, and light rails to get around. As well as bicycle paths on most roads.
