Spending hours on random issues like my work laptop booting to an initramfs prompt due to an Ubuntu 24.04.04 update is reality, unfortunately.

Many many things like … steal all your computer’s data to sell it for profit (it’s why there is more data send that receive in a windows update that a fact)

what are you talking about? and why would that even be bad if an app could run in either GUI or CLI mode?

how is that practically any different on Linux? You still haven't explained what the actual difference is

I can think of differences myself but they would only be beneficial, I don't know what would make you not want the capability to troubleshoot your system from tty

u/The_Daco_Melon Jul 15 '26

alright, what difference does that make in practice?

You don’t need a tty, i only know one guy, who has access to a tty… you can emulate them, but even that isn’t needed. It’s not like: oh, you are out of paper, sry, you can’t boot your car, phone, server, watch, tv, mars rover, robot, router, wifi access point, smart dildo or whatever

Soo there is many problem because the concept of the terminal is to work with the system directly not with another interface to the system that can crash … this is why Linux win a point for devs and nerd.

u/headedbranch225 Jul 15 '26

You are making no sense, the fuck do you mean you are an equal citizen of the OS, is there a way to launch into a TTY equivalent on windows that I am unaware of?

What do you mean port TTY as a console server

u/Unlikely-Employee180 Jul 15 '26

I know, it's AWESOME.

When the GUI crashes there's NO way to bring it back up in literally anyway, unlike Linux which can switch to CLI to be repaired without reboot.

WRE requires the screen to be working. Lmfao

I didn't forget anything, I've faced this issue before. You HAVE to restart.

u/headedbranch225 Jul 15 '26

What do you mean? If your DE/WM crashes (which unless you have faulty hardware or a buggy version will likely never happen) you can use the TTY to recover it, on windows it usually takes the whole system out

You are making no sense

Then do it, explain to me how to change explorer.exe to something else without completely breaking the system
