As someone who someday hopes to get a job in research, sure. Let's return to it in two or four years when I will at least have an option to work without parental consent. Nope. It would be ~20:00 here, plus I have to prepare for my exams and classes. I don't really appreciate your attitude, but I can get what you wanted to convey with this. I'm a kid. Likely at least one third of your age? Got it. I am not a convert. I never had any system other than Linux. It's not a boast nor point of pride, just a fact. My parents were using some Windows before I was even alive, my father was using linux at the university and other jobs he held. Mother is not particularly computer savvy, but I think she has some Apple desktop. But it is another preconceived notion that you have applied to me. We have different needs and goals. We did not start in the same place in life. Just as with our smartphone discussion: I might have stated something too strongly or missed the point, but that does not mean I will never see the fault in Linux. However, on my side, it does all what I need. You want audio/video stuff, I want a system with package manager and easy to setup and use my tools. Or 'toys', whatever suits you. I do respect both you and your opinions, but you seem to be very quick to judge while having little data. Wisdom and experience, no matter how vast, does not make you impervious to making mistakes about others. You should know it by now.As a professional who works in occupations that make money, you have listed a long list of toys.
In two hours you go to bed.
This is the problem with the Linux converts
No, I just know that your fundamental attitude is "if it's good enough for me, it's good enough for everyone" and you won't listen to reason until someone steps up and calls you on your bullshit.
