(The "Windows" slices of the pies are entirely made up by Baldur's Gate 3, which also runs well over Linux)

Or they were making excuses

Oh, it's the Linux-preaching guy again. He always tries to get us to switch to Linux. We just say "sorry mate, we can't game on Linux" when we see him, he usually leaves us alone after that.

OP's friends until now

look dude, you were friends with Steve and he died in 91, and he taught us to be more patient with you than you deserve. We don't care that you're on the spectrum, this is not okay. Every single time we go out you're on that Linux shit. Every. Single. Fucking. Time. We're tired of your shit, we don't want to hear from you again, you can keep your Linux and shove it up your ass. Just stop bothering us about it.

  • It's more like friendly banter, than me trying to compel anyone to make any "switch" - something everyone in this comment thread keeps assuming, for some reason;
  • I posted this ON A LINUX COMMUNITY;
  • If you look at the chart instead of dumping gasoline on the admittedly inflammatory title, you may notice that I occasionally boot up Windows, and consequently admit that sometimes you don't have a choice or simply want to avoid the headache;
  • I reiterate, I find volatile croissand-bread people like you and neatchee unsufferable.
