I dont even want to think about how many partitions there are on my PC. windows has 4 or 5 just existing, then there’s root, home and swap plus 2 more for the 2 other drives. So… 9 or 10? its been a while since I had a reason to care.

As for what you should do, if you are replacing windows, it wont really matter what the format on the windows part is because youre going to need to back up the save data and reinstall those games eventually anyway. You cant really run the same game installs on both OSes.

Pretty sure it was just emacs users instinctively swatting the vim enthusiast.

Linux mint is 0.07%… are you telling me that over 95% of the linux installs are other distros?

Why do you think anyone bothered to write a ntfs driver if you could read and write to ntfs without it? Why do you think windows cant read ext4? What do you think file systems are?

We have a specific driver for reading and writing to ntfs for a reason.

Theyd need a ntfs driver to do anything. If you try to do what you are suggesting without one, bad things happen. Unless that part of the partition isn’t ntfs formatted.

What. Did. You. Do?

It was always creepy. But this just pushes that creepiness right into peoples’ faces so they can’t ignore it.

They asked for ELI5 and you gave them ELI CS undergrad

This seems like a pretty dumb thing to do to try to wipe out a browser with 2% marketshare.

You meant to destroy your data?

Unless you meant to destroy all of that data, that was unintentional not intentional.

KDE. I tried gnome, xfce etc. but theyre either stripped down (xfce) or designed in a way that bothers me. (gnome)

Tbh youre probably better off on something like Linux Mint or something else Debian or Ubuntu based. Fedora is a good distro but rpms are a lot less common than debs are and alien does not entirely fix that issue.

No. The companies he controls at some level lost about a trillion in stock value combined

It cost him a lot more than that. He lost about 200 billion in stock value that he owned and among the companies he “runs” about a trillion was lost in total due to investers dumping stock after seeing his ineptitude on full display.

He didnt just set the brand recognition on fire, elon basically did everything someone would do if they wanted to intentionally run twitter into the ground.

Ubuntu is trying to reinvent Windows, malware risk and all

ugh… this reminds me of a compilation error I got that complained about an unknown character. Looked through the file, didnt notice anything, passed it around for other people to check and no one noticed anything until one person noticed that the quotes were being autocorrected to the straight quotes instead for some fucking reason. I didnt see it because 1) why would that even be a thing and 2) I am almost legally blind without my contacts.
