You can make up all the reasons you want, the end result is the same. People use windows because the product works better and more reliably. If you want to split hairs be my guest but every metric windows wins against Linux in gaming. It has a higher user base, more software, better support, and as you said even entire businesses developing stuff for it because businesses go where the customers are. Sure you can say "oh they just greased some palms", but if you knew anything about the gaming world that doesn't mean jack shit if your games and hardware sucks. The graveyard of failed hardware and software prove that. As much as I love steam and I'm glad the steam deck is having success every other Linux based hardware attempt they've come up with has failed hard like their console and steam link. And what's your point about some games running better? Some games run worse too, beyond the fact your statement admits not every game runs better, how does that make Linux superior? Your example about companies also doesn't disprove anything because a company can do that...but hasn't in the entire 40+ years of Linux existence...curious isn't it? Also you can program driver's for windows too for devices lol, how else do you think people tinker with stuff? I mean I'm using a PS3 eye as a webcam on my Windows PC rn with custom community made drivers just like Linux does .....
You kid but as a kid when I learned about potatoes and lemon batteries I was like "SCALE THIS UP NOW!"
...if only...
Yeah I heard he's a bit of a prick anyways but I was torn when I first heard that cause I'm like justified anger but at the same time if my kid was one the punched id have beat the shit out of Zach. Detain them, fine, call the police to report it, okay. Arbitrarily lash out at a kid with physical violence over a non life threatening event? Ehhhhhh.........
Sure, games. Proton/wine came a long ways but it's far from perfect or has the same depth of software as native windows. Also potentially having to mess with lutris can be annoying. Graphics drivers are also better on windows too. If you'd like to try to argue this just look at protondb. Is it a 100% compatible with every title? No? Hmmm.... Not to mention proton triggering some games anti cheats.
It's also why there are several memes including the one posted just yesterday or the day before about "cheating" on Linux with windows for gaming. Plus the whole standard advice ive seen on Lemmy being "Linux for daily driving, windows partition for gaming." Now again, why would that be the standard advice? https://lemmy.world/post/5834366
^---thread in question where Linux gamers commiserate their difficulties getting certain games to run on their Linux systems.
Linux is fine, windows is okay if you disable the telemetry, just use what ever os and software you want but it's really silly to make false claims.
Lol Zach from scrubs almost beat up some kid who was a punkd crew member before they did the reveal.
"Asker: When you got punk'd, did you punch that kid for painting on your car? Because I'm pretty good friends with him and when he tells the story he said you were (very reasonably) pissed.
Zach Braff: I punched him in the stomach (as I recall). Who amongst you wouldn't have? They edited it out though. You're not allowed to punch little kids on MTV. Lame."
If you've never heard a foreign language spoken in your life does that mean it also originated on reddit?
Charges
Or maybe just maybe they know they've already filed for new charges by the DA and didn't just take 1 article at face value you ignorant fucking twat.

Court date is for oct 25th.
HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM seems he's not as clearly innocent as you want us to believe.
ive heard this for years and i always laugh, "there is nothing windows does that linux doesn't!" yeah, totally man.
Propaganda can be a hell of a drug. Just look at the Russians and kyiv during the literal opening shots of the war. They were told and hyped up that the Ukrainians would be welcoming them with open arms and they even brought along their parade uniforms expecting a quick victory...well reality sunk in when in a way Ukraine did welcome them with arms, just not the kind Russia expected.
Hold space and press the movement key in the direction you wanna go. When space is held down(and you're using default controls) your wasd controls the booster movement not your ships yaw/thrust. Another tip is you can combine it with your mouse turning to get insanely tight turns on other ships. Also if you boost slightly then thruster boosters you'll temporarily carry that momentum too.
If you look at the food selections in starfield it follows what astronauts currently eat//projected to eat in theory for deep space travel. The reason chunks is so popular is not just because it's everywhere but you can take it on your ship as rations. Food in 0g environments must be very compact and produce as little crumb like issues as possible to keep the food from getting into your space craft machinery. Be a real shame if your life support system shorted out because a drop of liquid got in it or your engines shorted out cause a chunk of apple got in it. Same with the bugs, I read a report that they could use certain bugs like worms as a protein replacement due to the science required to break the atmosphere. Because every single unit of weight must be calculated for fuel consumption entering and exiting atmospheres(a problem we don't really have on our player ships due to instant refilling he-3 gas tanks.

Now for why it's still popular after grav drives produce artificial gravity, I have to say it's probably because people got so use to eating it on ships in the 300 years since Earths Demise and everyone bailing. Plus for in the rare instances your ship malfunctions from getting shot.
I don't think it's a year to setup the software. Rather a year to load it lol. I've spent probably close to 4 years loading content into my Plex server and I don't see any end in sight.
