I used to get it why people install chrome. It had a specific look and feel. It’s no more, all browsers (except some startups making up the rules) look the same. Its a full page window with tabs on the top. Vanilla FF looks the same.

Not on linux from scratch

Just use notepad++ with wine like any normal person do

I install windows from command line only

I’m in and out with linux for the last few years. It really boils down what do you want to do on your PC. If you are into online gaming or you need some specialized software for your work you are pretty much better stay on windows. However for general use its awsome. I have replaced many of my software even on windows to foss tools. There is a small learning curve and you will certainly need the terminal in the beginning but overall not terrible. For me it was a pleasant experience seeing mostly everything works without effort. The two most popular desktops (KDE and Gnome) are fairly polished and you question a lot of things in windows after using them. In general using linux a bit gives you a new perspective on how to use a PC.

Isnt your data encrypted when you have a pw set on your phone? For a screen or battery replacement they dont need to know your pw.

I take a 200ml glass and overfill it with ice. I pull a double shot directly on it and the ice collapses till the brim. The double espresso I pull visibly fills half or a bit more of the glass due to the ice. Then i top it up with a bit of milk no measurement.

I will try this. All summer I have been just pulling espressos directly on ice cubes the added a touch of milk. I know its a crime but whatever, I liked it a lot and got me going.

So what is the issue with this project https://libreboot.org/ ? maybe instead demanding change, supporting alternatives is a better option

Some Syrian well groomed horses could open a horse barber shop with leather aprons and straight egde blades

There is np such thing as overkill while some governments actively funding quantum computing projects for the sole purpose of code cracking

Music piracy was big till spotify apprared. iTunes had a limited selection, music remixes, small band stuff were not available. iTunes only had what Sony and some other music distributors supplied. I understand what you are saying but still, piracy was there and iTunes was not primary source. Spotify came and now music piracy is basically limited to high quality audio albums which is a niche market.
