The OP is stating that she knew from the employee’s first day, they were not right for the job, because the employee was late on their first day without any notice or head’s up.

There is nothing in the post to indicate how long the employee has been working there, nor what incident led to the being fired.

I didn’t think I would find myself defending a story on LinkedIn, but that’s not at all what is in the story.

I’m loving the 7 remakes and super looking forward to this!

“Just north of Antarctica” is still not helpful at all though. Even a hemisphere would narrow it down more.

I do a lot of things other than gaming.

Well it’s not a very compelling sales pitch to tell me to ditch the multiple thousands of dollars of hardware and just buy new stuff. If the goal is to get people to switch to Linux from Windows, I hope you’re not the one leading the charge.

Even among that I’ve varied. In one installation I have Windows sharing a drive, separate partition for Linux. In another computer they’re on completely different drives.

Not all instances were dual booting, nor are all of the problems I’ve encountered or described above related with dual booting.

I’ve tested out Manjaro, KDE Neon, Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Debian, Mint, and Fedora - across two desktops and a laptop.

Problems have been all over the spectrum. Not being to install at all, trouble getting it to dual boot after installing (despite following a guide), getting NAS drives to be writeable, hardware compatibility, finding alternatives to proprietary software which may or may not do everything the original did, and more.

I’m semi enjoying the tinkering for now, and I’m not regretting trying to de-Windows as much as possible, but I think people who say Linux is ready for mainstream are out of touch with the average person’s computer literacy.

“any computer”? Come on, what is that hyperbole? My desktop runs Wilds stable just fine.

My partner and I have been transitioning to Linux over the past month or so, dual booting for now.

Linux still isn’t ready for mass adoption.

Van Gogh was never really financially successful during his lifetime. It shouldn’t really be up to us to decide if it’s good or bad for all time. I agree that art should be preserved. But, I’m also a data hoarder lol

Must be planning to stop with double digits. I can’t respect someone who doesn’t commit to leading zeroes.

First time using it as a daily desktop driver, but not the first time using it. I’ve had various smaller exposures over the past five or so years, like messing around on a Pi, setting up some Foundry servers, a NAS, etc.

I’m still using manjaro since making that comment so that’s another week or whatever it’s been, but I’ve also been installing some others in other places. I’ve installed Ubuntu briefly in a VM, I have used Debian a little bit more in a VM, I put KDE Neon on my laptop, etc.

My honest and unpopular opinion (at least here on Lemmy) is that Linux is still not really feasible for the average user, whatever the flavour. But, I’m enjoying it when I’m not banging my head against a wall figuring out why something doesn’t work.

I’m disappointed that certain things just simply will not work. For example I have Lian li fans, and while there are a few options I’ve found for controlling Lian li stuff on Linux, none of them work with my particular models. I have a fingerprint reader which even though I got fprint working, my particular model doesn’t play nicely with Linux or arch specifically I don’t remember which, either way it’s effectively unusable.

My partner, who I am also slowly convincing to give it a shot and is dual booting, has even more quirks and niche-ish hardware that just works on Windows, but is proving to be a real pain in the ass on Linux, like a pre-amp, our mic setup for streaming, a stream deck with specific integrations, a Wacom tablet.

Netflix has ads, that’s what this is about.

Been trying out Manjaro for a few weeks.

Commandos, I should have said.

It’s more like the Commando or Shadow Tactics series, if you’ve heard of those. Not like Age of Empires or Warcraft.

Glad I switched to Jellyfin last year.

Why would you get downvoted in a community called LinkedIn Lunatics where we are expressly making fun of the content of the post?
