RE: What OS are you using? - Kludge - 09-23-2019
Why would so many people willingly and wantingly use W10 when a Debian build with WINE can do anything you need it to do?
And it's free!

Mostly just the latest OSX. Have W10 to game on. Waiting for the next Ubuntu release to use as my daily driver, though. Don't feel like having to deal with Nvidia driver incompatibilities on Linux and I'm not sure if any other Linux distro besides Ubuntu 19.10 is aiming to ease that pain. Let me know if that's not the case because down to experiment.

Windows 10 and Kali Linux on my PC right now

Also surprised by the amount of people who run a pentesting liveboot as their bare metal. I don't get the point, but okay.

At the moment I'm on Arch Linux
Haven't been on windows for awhile. I like changing OS every now and then.

I use Arch btw.
Meme free reply:
I use Arch. Its ok, but there are a lot of problems with a minimal installation. For some reason Libre Office doesn't detect misspelled words, I had to install most of my programming tools through Pacman or Yay that would normally come with the distro, etc. Even had to download the network daemon. I enjoy it, but it was a pain to start with.
Currently building a computer with plans to dual boot Windows 10 and Mint Cinnamon on it. Barely touched Windows since the forced upgrades, but as a programmer, it will be nice to use C# to make graphical applications. Especially since my software dev class next semester will likely require it. When I get my desktop built, I think I will switch my laptop to OpenBSD to experience true Unix

I alternate between TAILS, BlackArch and Kali liveboots for my pentesting laptop, and then for my main PC I run Win10 and Arch.

When you access root on a *nix machine:

In over 20 years of computing, I've yet to pay a single dime for OSes and software.

I am using Windows 10. I do not believe I have used any other operating system, except for Windows. I found Windows 10 less touch-friendly than Windows 8 when I first began to use it, but now that I have gotten used to it, I enjoy using it. I love the built-in Cortana voice-responsive digital assistant.
