So I got hit with Microsoft's Windows 11 nag screen... - eviltoast

… as explained here.

Basically Microsoft presents this “incredible” product, and then says in the same breath: “Oops, not for your current setup. Maybe you should consider buying a new PC?”

Really!? 😠

If only Linux were ready for mainstream use…

    That makes you extremely unquallified to determine weather or not Linux is ready for the desktop of the mainstream computer user.

    After 30 years you are very familiar with the workings of Linux, meaning you fic issues before the become a problem.

    What is way more telling is having a Windows user/gamer just grabing a Linux ISO, burning it to a USB drive, booting the drive, installing the OS, installing Steam, installing games and gaming with zero issues on the first try.

      When I started using it, not only was I not familiar with it, but linux was arguably far less ready for the desktop than it is now.
