Image shows a tweet with the header “and people STILL try to convince me Linux and Windows are better when the DATA clearly shows otherwise. SMH” with an image attached showing the following:
“Operating systems by current version” Mac OS: 14 Windows: 11 Linux: 6
Xbox OS is clearly winning with the 360
But they went back to one so idk anymore
Windows will reach 12 this year. Double score!
@dataisugly material
Windows 2000 enters the room
Tips Fedora 39
That’s the only world where apple is ahead 😂
I will say that in 2021 the M1 Mac mini was probably bang for buck the best computer you could get. Granted, that was mostly because GPUs were insanely expensive/inflated. But I was pretty impressed at the price points for those machines at the time. My buddy nabbed a refurbished M1 a few months after launch with 16gb ram/1TB SSD for $950 IIRC. He brings it to set for DIT/assistant editing work, still going strong entering 2024
Can we install Linux on M1 machines yet? Last time I tried it was a nightmare and I failed miserably.
Yes, Asahi via
curl https://alx.sh | sh
Yes, using Asahi Linux. Its not perfect, but very usable.
I recall at one point Windows 10 was going to be the last version of the OS and they would just maintain that. I’m wondering if they said that to get the last of the Windows 7 and XP users to finally move to 10?
I use HAL 9000. Get up on my level.
I remain unimpressed.
Use gnome then
Lowest version number, lowest need for radical change to keep up to date. Golf rules. Linux wins. Somebody get Tux a green jacket.
I mean, technically Linux is still at 2.6, they’ve just been making up version numbers for the last 20 years or so.
Pfff my systemd is version 255.2-2, I am lightyears ahead.
MacOS according to other metrics tho. … https://xkcd.com/1056/
oldie but a goodie
Browsers compared themselves with this metric for a while, but they had to stop before they reached an integer overflow.
Gnome goes brr
Meanwhile, ChromeOS 120 is off the scale
