I knew it was to good to be true xD I managed to troubleshoot a few things over the past days so I am good atm. But thank you for your offer :)

I get it. I also don't want to signal to Microsoft that switching to a subscription model is valid, for an OS I already payed for. I worry they'll adapt it for all services released in the future, which are declining in quality. They are basically becoming Adobes ugly sibling.

I know, this is a contradictory statement to what I have written before which was driven by frustration mainly. Managed to troubleshoot a few things since then.

Lol sorry for the ramble but I hope this might help you feel a little less lost at the grocery store. ;)

Thank you for your detailed comment. :)

I am dual booting Linux Mint Cinnamon, and you are totally right. The "app store" is very nice and I was honestly impressed how much control Cinnamon offered and made it accessible for beginners through GUI. It felt more streamlined than Win10 in some places. Steam's Proton is also a huge deal, as most games work great with it enabled out of the box. I do however often feel lost. I didn't expect that but the thing most difficult for me is basic stuff, like navigating the start menu. I really like the customization Win10 offered and miss it dearly.

I guess it is part not having a feeling on how Cinnamon works yet. After using Windows since 2006 I know my way around it failry well, and I don't have that "gut-feeling" in Linux yet. It will come with time, but atm I am feeling a little defeated.

Jesus. How did you get that from what I have written

I find myself actually considering paying 30$ a year for prolonged windows 10 support because I find the switch to linux really overwhelming. Like being sent grocery shopping, but all lables are in traditional chinese. Some things you can figure out very easily, but troubleshooting anything takes me days.

Thing is, and I say that as a windows user with a little experience in linux: I got no idea what you are talking about, and I doubt many windows users do.

There are no actions, only transactions

I heard that it is supposedly forbidden in my country to name a child "Satan". I live in a pretty progressive/ not very religious country, so I find that absolutely moronic. I would totally ask if it was possible to assign that as a second name.

And even though my low low bar, I would probably never name my child after any brand, place or food item. Names that sugest stupidity are also off the list.

Can't tell if you are ragebaiting or sincerely not considering police violence/ power abuse by police officers, which I think FuglyDucly is referring to.

(After reading through most comments here, I think it is trolling)

Unsure how to respond to this... but if you are thinking of harming yourself call a person you trust, or an ambulance to get some help and support.

I don't get why the bringe of (at least Picard's) Enterprise is located at the top of the ship. We often see ships suffering hull-damage, sometimes scraping each other and getting into all kinds of perilous situations. So why put the room with the most important people in such a vulnerable position when you could put it at the heart of the ship? Bridge would be less likely to suffer from hull damage and decompression. Also, why don't enemy factions just go: Oh that's the bridge. Jolly good. Aim torpedoes at it, watch their morale crumble to dust alongside the bridge crew and call it a day.
