Everything's quicker on Linux but the crashes. 😌

Driver crash is the quickest 🙃

For some reason my installation doesn't shut down properly as it keeps hanging on some shutdown task.. I fixed it by shutting down and just holding the power button after a minute

@EngineerCoding yeah. I did the same 😂

@jespersh thankfully, haven't come across one that was that bad.

Which crashes?

@sbiewald compared to MSWIN. BSODs and other nasty.

@kayb01000010 Now I read it correctly, thanks.

What crashes? There are no crashes. Linux is perfect.

You're using arch, theres your problem. Use a more stable and hardened OS and you'll be fine.

@arcsector i was referring to the crashes on MSWIN 😬

@kayb01000010 got it

@EngineerCoding It did that for me, then I upgraded the kernel to 5.2 and now it's instant shutdown.

Never could recommend Linux to anyone, who is not a masochist. I love the speed, but the random freezing is killing me. Doubt a non dev could ever use it...

@HitWRight Well, which distro exactly? Linux is a kernel and it would be rather stupid to recommend someone to only use a kernel who doesn't have enough technical knowledge.

I'm genuinely wondering, though, I know some distro's aren't the most stable ones but my parents run on the same distro without issue for 5+ years now and although I'm a distrohopper, I need a stable system since my work depends on that and at least Kubuntu has been stable as hell for me.

Let me know!

@linuxxx so far I've checked Ubuntu and Fedora. Ubuntu was a hell with all the freezing, Fedora seems much more stable, even though it's not Debian based.
And for sure you can recommend if the main use is watching videos and browsing the web, but once you have to work or game on it, suddenly all changes ;D

@HitWRight Fun thing is that at my work, we use it in production (hosting) and also for our own desktops. We're not allowed to use windows due to security but it runs very stable.

I do play some Linux (and windows ones via steam play) games and they mostly run very well but I don't game that often :)

@linuxxx nice to hear that you're not shoved down the amazingly secure domain infrastructure ;D (CentOS is just amazing for backend server-side)
Although not sure how your company deals not having a huge and bloated IDE to work with... Hard to imagine working without decent autocomplete...

@HitWRight I work at a hosting company, I've never touched an IDE here :)

@HitWRight I personally use Kubuntu with Netbeans right now, autocomplete and all other things I need are integrated!
