When people tell you to use Linux, they're not telling you that to solve your immediate problem (e.g. your "show desktop" icon has been replaced with a different icon), but they are telling you to get out of your abusive relationship with Microsoft, because that is the real problem: Microsoft does not respect you, the end-user of their product, and this kind of abusive shit will keep happening for as long as you keep using Windows.

No it isn't.

It's more like saying: if that guy you hang out with keeps pushing you into the water and you almost drown every time, perhaps you should stop hanging out with that guy.

Of course, that's not what people who are in an abusive relationship typically want to hear.

Asphalt field? Your comment makes zero sense.

Have you never seen a promenade with trees, greenery, benches, ... ? You know a place where it's nice for people to spend time instead of space taken up by yet another vehicle?

Looking at the way this particular road is constructed, and the age of the trees, I guarantee that this space was a promenade before and the space to build a tramway has been taken from pedestrians (people) not from cars.

It can and should be both whenever possible

Roads or tramlines don't need greenery. It adds nothing.

It would be much better if this place was a promenade for people, with some benches, a playground for kids, maybe a place to sit and have lunch, ... and the transportation stuffed out of sight underground, aka a subway.

rail only needs, well, rails

And overhead lines ... which trees often interfere with.

Green space being used for vehicles instead of for people, even if it is public transport.

Tunnels also don't take away space from people. This nice looking tramway could be a nice promenade for people instead.

Otherwise a second PiHole set as the secondary DNS in DHCP would keep things online.

No, that just creates time outs and delays when either of them is offline.

The proper way is to have a standby pihole that takes over the IP address of the main pihole when it goes down. It's quite easy to achieve this with keepalived.

It was introduced by "Active Desktop", which came with IE4. So if you installed IE4, you also got this on Windows 95.

It’s hardly a useful comparison to compare the CPU on its own against a Video Card + CPU.

It is a useful comparison if the latter combination is the same price

24 vs. 16 (available) PCIe lanes that’s not half

24x PCIe 5.0 vs 16x PCIe 4.0

So 8 lanes less and each lane has half the bandwith = less than half the PCIe bandwidth.
