That also looks like me on the rare occasion my laptop will randomly go from whatever brightness I set to maximum brightness with no way to change it back manually. Still have no clue why it happens, but at least I can put my laptop to sleep and fix the problem.
What a weird take. Windows in GUIs were a thing years before Microsoft made theirs. It followed white logically from Microsoft DOS. There were several other operating systems called something with DOS at the time, PC-DOS, Novell DOS, and others.
While not a very creative name, it was pretty self explanatory as to its major feature.
Talk about bad names for an operating system, IBM‘s OS/2 is far worse.

No problem here, destroying Windows is in our second nature.

Well, to be fair, Windows will refuse to open before like fifteen updates so your fate is sealed regardless.

I was told firejail is more secure. This is fine.

Gotta run pacman -Syu one more time real quick then I'll uninstall the windows

Windows are not the problem.
Microsoft Windows' legal restrictions and source-unavailablity is the problem.
Do not confuse the two.
Windows are important for GNU+Linux users too.
As in: "Never trust a computer you cannot defenestrate."
Like if it catches fire. Better to throw it out a window, than let the house catch fire.

Anyone ever consider how stupid the name Windows is for Microslop's OS.
hellfire103@lemmy.ca · 5 pts · 169d
Well, it started out as a basic windowing system for DOS, so...
Doomsider@lemmy.world · 0 pts · 169d
Yeah Microsoft Graphical Boxes makes some sense I suppose. Windows? No, sorry they are not windows.
Why not paintings, canvas, boards, or any other much more logical name. This is some stupid decision by a marketing department.

That is nonsense, I did look it up and it was a last minute marketing decision. Found the guy that likes Winblows!
