Now I’m as partisan a Mac user as you’ll find, but considering I see one of my Macs crash once every couple of years or so, I can’t really call “3 times as often,” a horrifyingly egregious number.
Compared to operating systems of the 90s/00s our current operating systems are rock solid. I’d crash once a week on a Mac back in those days.
I was gonna say… do Macs even crash? I don’t think I’ve ever seen those two words together in a sentence before. Not that I’ve used a Mac but yeah… I have an iPhone and I barely ever need to restart this thing, really only do it when I have to install an update and it really just restarts itself.
Macs are controlled hardware totally under Apple’s control, whereas PCs are wild West.
Yeah and a Windows PC is relying on a bunch of other manufacturers doing their part.
In this case wild west is actually a good thing if you ask me.
Sure, agree, but it comes with downsides. I’d still take it over Mac anytime.
Meanwhile on Linux: “You guys have crashes?”
Go figure out passwordless for a few weeks.
… why?
ssh keys are your stumbling block?
This is funny but ironically I had maybe a few bad kernels for a bit because I was getting kernel panics all the time for a few weeks. My mac is still my most stable device, but also tbf I would hope that it is in comparison to my computer part legos (aka desktop pc).
bad title. the body of the article is more honest. companies arent patching their pcs.
I oversee a fleet of both devies and they are both way less stable than they should be considering what we pay for them. Also fuck HP its actually so dogshit. These fucking idiots fuck their own drivers up so often I hesitate to push the updates even though were paying out the ass for enterprise tier support.
That’s sounds realistic.
Both the types of use cases and demographic coverage (think globally) is very broad for Windows PC.
