About 15 years ago I gave Linux a try, liked it and showed it to my wife who is less technical than me. She said she found it nicer than windows so I put it in the common computer and never looked back.

You can find as many excuses not to use Linux as I can give you reasons and solutions to try it... at the end of the day, try it, don't try it, it's your decision and you get to live with the consequences of those decisions. Me evangelizing about Linux is just as painful as hearing Window users complain about it yet unwilling to do anything but whine about it

If you do give it a try and have an issue, there are plenty places to get help for Linux better than the MS forums, this is undeniable.

Also, notice Windows is like bumper cars while Linux is like the entire vehicle fleet of the world, you want to drive a tank, you got it... wanna drive a super car, got it... wanna drive a hot air balloon that moves on good wishes, Linux has one distro just like that... you probably should not learn to drive in a Ferrari when you are late for work, choose a beginner friendly distro and move on from there at your pace if you feel like it

My hot take: If you have to use a command line EVER to do ANYTHING - it’s not ready for non-technical users.

Then I guess Linux is as ready as Windows for the non-technical folks... the only difference is that with Windows is not like you get a CLI to do something, you just don't get that something period.

Thanks for the clarification, I was definitely conflating a bit... having said that, even with the more accurate description I do believe I experience Racing thoughts at lot more often than not, certainly not close to zero.

One thing I have noticed is that, when I do try to quiet my mind and reduce stimulus, this is when more often than not my thoughts do fucking race. At its peak, it feels like watching people in a fair from a thrill ride, it's a blur of barely distinguishable snapshots mixed in with sounds, lights, smells... it does make me feel like I am insane; fortunately, when it gets to that state, it does not last long

you are the people I come to find in Lemmy

same... it took me a second to re-calibrate the context

This stat is literally worthless

So Google half baked a product, pushed it to the public whether they wanted it or not, and now it's giving up on it replacing it with another half baked product nobody asked for...

Seems par for the course for Google

I couldn't care less... I care about what will be the next thing someone unaffected by me consuming it, would ban it and deprive me of it

Back then, this statement was such an exaggeration that it was plain to see it was satire... now it's indistinguishable from reality
