NTFS turns 30 years old today! I hear it's still in use by some crufty old legacy operating systems 😁 (en.wikipedia.org)

As a full time desktop Linux user since 1999 (the actual year of the Linux desktop, I swear) I wish all you Windows folks the best of luck on the next clean install πŸ‘

...and Happy 30th Birthday "New Technology" File System!

    I wouldn’t tell you if I use Linux. I would tell YOU to use Linux. That reminds me… use Linux!

    We have extra time to diss Windows since we don’t have to wait for our OS to reboot all the fucking time.

    Omg. This hits home. I think Linux has prompted / asked me to reboot one time since I installed it 2 months ago. Windows wants you to reboot everytime you change anything. I didn't realize how insanely often it asks until I had something to compare it to.

    I got a friend trying Linux for the first time and they asked for some help picking software to install, like which office suite or photo app etc... They just instinctively rebooted after everything they did like it was a pavlovian response, lol.
