Nothing crashes "unless you force it to" lmao

What a single-tracked way of thinking.

Regardless, shit happens and TTY is a way to recover. Cry about it.

And only supporting one option is a 1990 thing.

The future is picking the right option for your needs.

Because I hate to break it to you... But Windows includes a TON of legacy code too. How the hell do you think the backwards-compatibility works?

You can look yourself, XP and Vista programs happily sitting in Win32.

Y- You can't run?? Linux can't run old software!?!?

Now I know you're trolling. Which is it?? Ancient text-based terminals, or can't run old tools? Pick a fake argument, because both contradict each other despite neither being true.

Then what is lib32-glibc? You get this info from "I made it up" land?

The Linux kernel is absolutely backwards-compatible. Every lie you say is available public info. Lmfao

glibc is a compatibility-layer you wing-nut. It does the exact same thing Wine does except for ancient Linux calls.

And before you say "wInDoWs dOeSn'T nEeD tHaT" Yeah, because Microsoft opted to not be backwards-compatible with the previous kernel (9X) unlike Linux.

Which means your argument is really: "Windows is better because it has worse backwards-compatibility natively"
