I mean, you don't *need* a third paper. But still...

The lack of symmetry is understandable, but it still vaguely annoys me ๐Ÿ™‚

@arin You see the chromatic aberration from your glasses. You don't see the aberration from your eyes, same as you don't see the blind spot or the yellow spot, or notice that your peripheral vision is in black and white only.

Hate to tell you, but eyes have chromatic aberration. They have lots of optical faults. They're really pretty crappy, but our visual system learn to filter out and ignore it.

File system operations are often faster. This is in part due to Windows doing more; it has a more complex and more flexible permissions system.

Spawning threads and processes is also normally faster. Linux apps thinks nothing of spawning lots of processes with abandon, then have them opening and closing files all over the place. If you move it straight over to a Windows machine it will tend to run very badly as a result.

I see the screenshot from the Mastodon mobile web client.

Edit: of course I do. It's the other way around that doesn't seem to work.

Ubuntu is an excellent introduction to Linux I think. Also used a lot by experienced users that no longer want to spend much time keeping their desktop running.
