The most widely used operating systems in the world are based on unix/linux. Android (the most used OS in the world), MacOS, iOS, ESXi (as well as most hypervisors that aren’t hyper-v) are all based on Linux/Unix. That’s not even mentioning routers, switches, load balancers, and other high performance networking equipment. Other critical internet infrastructure (like root DNS servers) are all based on Unix or Unix-derivitives.
Just because it’s not a widely used desktop OS doesn’t mean that Linux/unix aren’t relevant.
Not sure if you’re being serious or not, but I’ve personally had very little issue with gaming on Linux. To the Unix/Linux folks, windows 11 feels like a trash heap of bugs and blue screen crashes that suck.
To be fair though: Desktop Linux isn’t for everyone. Making generalized statements about Linux is silly when you aren’t a Linux user feels very silly to me though. Feel free to keep doing it. And if this was bait: 10/10

I work in I.T. on servers all day. I’m not always the best with endpoints/printers/home computers/etc.

I imagine terminal velocity with no air resistance would be 9.8m/s/s. I was saying that the feather reaches terminal velocity more quickly than a bowling ball in non-vacuum conditions
- Comment on Falling 1 year ago:
I haven’t mentioned anyone give this take, so here’s how I understand it. The feather falls slower in non-vacuum conditions because it reaches its terminal velocity much more quickly than the bowling ball.
- Comment on Let π = 5 1 year ago:
There are people that think this post is wrong because the equation is wrong or due to a lack of units
The equation for cylindrical volume is correct (circular area multipled by height).
And the units are unimportant (can be described as cubed units)
The issue is that Pi is a constant. Constants and variables are different things.
Other examples of constants: 1, 24, 7, -1 … Etc.
Saying Pi = 5 is like saying 1 = 5 … Both Pi and numbers like 1,2,3, etc. have a constant (non-varying) value.
You can’t reassign a value on a constant. It’s like me sticking up 3 fingers and claiming there are 5 fingers there.
