    We’ve come a long way. Once upon a time, It might’ve said “Linux is only free if you don’t value your time.”

        I guess it’s still true if you want to get that perfect Arch install, but I’d imagine most people still saying that now had a bad experience many years ago and are unaware of how simple and smooth it can be nowadays.

      It depends. I recommend windows when people say they don’t want to put any time into learning a new os.

      Or gaming. While I can game without any issues on Linux i sometimes have to tweak sth. Or have issues that I as a veteran can solve easily. I wouldn’t recommend it to newcomers.

        I recommend windows when people say they don’t want to put any time into learning a new os.

        Only if they’ve used Windows before, otherwise (IMO) Linux would be easier to learn when just starting out.

          …first problem, google it, hello terminal.

          Meanwhile in windows you have GUI guide, if you even meet a problem other than learn to read.

    At first I was like “When I open windows, I let cool air in helping my pc to cool off better, what do you mean it’s less efficient?” Then it hit me, oooh the other windows.

    That’s basically a knock knock joke.
    A dad joke is something said in conversations.

      Dad jokes can come in many forms, it does not matter how, where or why it is said for that is not what makes a dad joke a dad joke. All that matters is that sweet sweet “Uggghhhh dad” you get from your kids/teens for that is where Dad jokes live and die.

      Dad jokes are classically built around puns, as is the case here.

      Setting up context doesn’t make this a knock knock joke.

          Setting up a stupid question just to deliver a pun as a punchline is 100% a dad joke in my book.

          I’m interested to hear what you think is required for a joke to be a dad joke.
