So you just don't like Windows. That sounds like your problem, not mine.

It's not windows.. that seems to be his only issue.

I'm sure even if I had Win11 and the latest software he would still put it
down because it's not his preferred O/S

So? I would hope after all these years, all the patches and fixes needed for
anything someone is likely to run into have already been fixed.. How many
bugs are they still working out of windows 11? Do you like the idea of MS
snooping on your files and activities?

Why? When they can do Win7 basically for free along with entire libraries of

So you're pissed because you upgraded from Win7 and hated Win11 and think I

So? Does it cease working? What do I need that 'support' for which I can't

It works, it's better and best of all it's paid for.

Well, he is the expert on assholes.... probably doesn't use a condom because
that is such old tech and he can't support it anymore.

Sometimes, there are also advantages to not being on the bleeding edge of
technology.

After all.. I also don't get trapped in my car on a summer day because Elon
decided to push an update. It also doesn't connect to any cell towers to
exchange information about my location, speed, etc. It also can't be
externally shut off, geo-fenced, or range limited.
Yea, We can only figure that Joel has to have a Tesla because a techno
weenie like him could have anything as outdated as having that lame ICE
crap.

Mint 2x.x runs on a 32 bit system?

And just like that Joel is rendered speechless.

Further, Why exactly would someone need new hardware, if their current
system is still fulfilling their needs and wants?

Older boxes can't run Linux Mint 21.3... so are you suggesting they use an
older unsupported version?

What about updates? Patches? Drivers?

When do you expect native support for 32 bit systems to be added?

Oh, that's right.. the latest versions of linux doesn't support old
hardware.

Even if true, how is that relevant to tpg?

suck.

Nope, using Win10 or Win11 is fine, I just have more self-respect, my
computer is an extension of myself, so its OS is important to me, I
choose Mint.

I'm not pretending anything, I'm openly saying I'm running Forte Agent
under Wine, because why not? It's the best GUI reader, who cares?
It's one app. I'm using IRCCloud for IRC, now, mIRC is mostly

Wine.

Amendment XIV
Section 1.

[...] No state shall make or enforce any law which shall
abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of
life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws.

Dobbs rewrites this, it is invalid precedent. States are
liable for denying needed abortions, e.g. TX.

I had up to date Mint on my old computer, in 2021. It could still be
running it, today, if I still had it.

Win7 and Win8 are out of support. Win10 will be before very long. If
you want to be a Windows user, you need to recognize they don't
support old hardware indefinitely. Linux would. I'm trying to help
you realize what you should be doing.

You aren't getting security patches.

You're posting to Usenet, that means the machine is online.

It's a dog, yeah, Linux is better. Not a hard comparison to make, for
me.
