Anyone who takes the insane ramblings of SJVN or ESR seriously need to check in to the nearest mental institution. Those two are the biggest fucking idiots on the planet.
Oh, get a grip. I know them both from my days in east coast SF fandom, and I can attest to the fact that there are many bigger idiots on the planet.

Uh oh, it's the hyperbole police, can't say anything without it being taken literally. Take your meds.
Honestly, do you seriously believe this nonsense?
Anyone who takes the insane ramblings of SJVN or ESR seriously need to check in to the nearest mental institution. Those two are the biggest fucking idiots on the planet. Microsoft is not planning to ditch NT for Linux, not now, not ever. What they are doing is making it easy to do the "Linux stuff" in Windows, you might even say they are embracing Linux, and they're extending Windows to work with a Linux workflow. I wonder what might come next.
(or pay RedHat, who are rapidly becoming the M$ of open source themselves...)
Imagine being this stupid. It's a wonder you made it to adulthood.
Put your money where your mouth is Microsoft, but I suspect you won't.
That's on the open source community not Microsoft. It's open source even if they haven't done the hard work of porting it to different platforms.
This is incorrect. Microsoft is on record saying they will not merge any patch that attempts to incorporate cross platform GUI capabilities. And just to preempt your idiotic reply: The whole point is to have an official, Microsoft-sanctioned, open source, supported release. You can always fork it, but then you'd have to have the resources to make your version the de facto standard, and if you're going to try and do that at Microsoft's home turf, you're gonna have a bad time.
I might've been understanding of their plight, if only it wasn't for the fact that GNOME developers are happy to exploit their sugar daddy advantage of RH to force their way in the FOSS landscape. Now they get to feel how it is like to be the little guy again, maybe they should take some time to enjoy their humble pie.
Virtualization causes a severe slow-down
With kvm+gpu passthrough it's now native performance. It's still not completely trivial to set up and needs extra hardware(if you want to run X/Wayland in addition to Windows), but it's doable. Not something I'd recommend, but it's still more pleasant than actually dual booting. Linux for productivity, Windows for games.
"Kulde er Guds måte å fortelle oss at vi burde brenne flere katolikker."
or maybe
"Kulde er Guds beskjed til oss om å brenne flere katolikker."
Or something like that. First one is more directly translated, but adds a "should"(burde) because otherwise I felt the sentence was weird. Last one is slightly altered, but sounds better imho.
That gambit already didn't work. pkgng (bloat, too clever by half, unstable, arrogant developers
Yes, because if it's one thing the BSD camp lacked, it was arrogant developers.
