    I see few of these, but there might be more:

    1. The icons on the desktop are too apart from each other.

    2. The icon for a floppy disk is much different to what’s on Windows XP.

    3. I think program names in the taskbar are 1 or 2 pixels too high, but I might be wrong.

    4. The icons in the notification area are too close to each other.

    5. Last icon in the notification area is too close to the clock.

    6. There’s too much padding to the left of notification area icons.

    7. There’s too much padding to the right of the taskbar clock.






  • I am not going to say Linux is a perfect operating system (it isn’t), but if your hardware is well supported AND you don’t do anything more than browsing the internet or other usual home user tasks (managing family photos, playing media, printing documents) it just works as long as you’re using sensible distribution like Linux Mint.

    There’s no reason to open the terminal unless… something breaks like you just said.

    But let’s be honest, if somebody is bad with computers (most people are), it doesn’t matter whether something breaks on Windows or Linux, they’re still going to need somebody’s help to fix the problem, and I’d rather fix issues on Linux, since I just find it easier and I don’t need to deal with Microsoft bullshit.





  • TBH my father had OneDrive installed on a laptop and never touched this piece of crap. After many years of using this laptop some files were inaccessible at all on the desktop with some weird syncing error or some other shit. His files were lost despite of not doing anything unusual.

    Fuck Microsoft and their unusable piece of crap operating system.
