For everyone in this thread: there is a "parent's guide" section for every movie on IMDB that describes the objectionable scenes in every category. Spoilers are hidden, but if you're going to watch a movie with sensitive people, then it is worth putting up with spoilers to know the extent of the awkwardness that awaits.

Example for The Lighthouse (with warnings about what OP posted): https://m.imdb.com/title/tt7984734/parentalguide/nudity

What a non-story. Reporting on "the concept of an idea". Let me know when something is cooking. Not interested in hearing that some people are thinking about maybe conceiving something in the future.

I never needed to use command line, but I did hone my typing skills on MIRC and ICQ.

That still only solves 75% of your problems. You'll need to buy an infinite number of books to get to 100%.

“People who are really serious about software should make their own hardware.”

The only way to make sure Linux works like that is to have a closed hardware environment. But it has to play nicely with other hardware and services (e.g. printers, webcams, etc + office documents, etc). It has taken a very long time for MacOS to get to this point, but people put up with Mac compromises because enough things worked smoothly.

I've just commented about this in another thread.....but I'm pretty convinced that Linux is not close to being ready for normies.

One of the first issues I had problems with was figuring out what was wrong with Street Fighter 6 giving ultra low frame rates in multiplayer, but working fine in single player. It needed disabling of split lock protections in the CPU.

A recent update in OpenSUSE made the computer fail to boot half the time and made the image on the right half of the screen garbled. I rolled back to before the update and am using it without updating for a few weeks to see if the GPU driver problem gets ironed out.

I installed VMware Horizon for my job's remote work login and it fucked up my Steam big picture mode and controller detection. I didn't bother trying to figure that out and just uninstalled VMware remote desktop.

I managed to install my printer driver, but manually finding the correct RPM file to install would not be tolerable for normies.

I still can't get my Dualshock 3 controller to pair via Bluetooth despite instructions on the OpenSUSE wiki. I've stopped trying to troubleshoot that and use my 8BitDo controller instead.

I still can't find a horizontal page scrolling PDF app.

Figuring out how to edit fstab to automount my secondary drives is not a process normies would be able to execute.

Plasma recently added monitor brightness controls to software and these seem to have disappeared for me now, and I can't figure out why.

I can't get CopyQ to launch minimised no matter what I do.

My KDE Plasma task bar widgets for monitoring CPU/GPU temp worked till I reinstalled OpenSUSE, and I can't figure out why they've decided to not work on this fresh install. System monitor can see the temperature sensors just fine still.

Flatpak Steam app wouldn't pick up controllers for some reason. Minor issue, but unnecessary jankiness.

My laptop fingerprint reader plainly isn't supported.

People do not tolerate this amount of jankiness. And this doesn't include the discomfort with relearning minor design differences between OS's when switching. Linux is a bit of a battle with relearning and troubleshooting things that would never be problematic on Windows.

I love Linux. I'm so glad I switched both my PC and laptop to OpenSUSE and got rid of dual boot Windows. Using Linux exclusively for months has really opened my eyes to the truth:
