I am altering the meme. Pray I do not alter it any further.

I'm not arguing about whose fault it is at all. I know very well that it's the app's fault. But that does not change the fact that Linux can't run the app.

I'm also not criticizing Linux. I use Linux on my desktop and I'm very happy with it. I'm just stating the simple fact that Linux can't run the app.

Linux also can't change the oil in my car. That's not a criticism, it's just a fact.

If you want to be pedantic, be pedantic. The OS is what loads and runs the application.

True, but that doesn't change the fact that Linux can't run the application.

The OS provides services to the application, acting as a bridge between the application and the physical hardware. The entire point of an OS is to run applications, otherwise it would serve no purpose.

If the app can run in Windows on the same hardware that Linux can, but the app can't run in Linux, then the only difference is the OS.

Only true for people that have no power or control over your life.

By harming another, you fundamentally harm yourself far more than you harm them. Even if they deserve it.

As a software developer / network admin, all of these are almost always "I fucked up configuring the web server".

Is it possible to turn recommendations on? I'm fine with those, but I never want to see shorts again.

The vast majority of users won't even notice.

I've never been able to get GPU acceleration working in qemu/kvm. That's also why the "just works" aspect of virtual box is important.
