Even though our computers are now better than 15 years ago, they still malfunction 11%–20% of the time, a new study from the University of Copenhagen and Roskilde University concludes. The researchers behind the study therefore …

The problems most often experienced by the participants included: “the system was slow,” “the system froze temporarily,” “the system crashed,” “it is difficult to find things.”
In case you were wondering what computer problems.
It’s the digital equivalent of never changing your oil or filters and then wondering why your engine is acting up.
Great analogy!
So stop breaking your computer, lol
Computers are kinda difficult thing, yeah.
We have far more complex systems than 15 years ago. Complexity has skyrocketed because of human failures in designing optimal, elegant systems, but also because of premature optimisation, convenience, and security.
To top it all off, literacy in computers hasn’t necessarily increased for the median user.
But if 15 years ago computers had to be regularly restarted, Windows had notoriously frequent Blue Screen of Death, Linux was not really feasible as a desktop system for most people, today we’re doing much better.
I work with Adobe programs for a living. At least a third of my time is spent dealing with their bugs, crashes, new poor design decisions, and general ineptitude.

Universal Blue project Mission preface:
Universal Blue project Values:
“It is Fedora Silverblue/Kinoite/Serica with extra steps! …But also not.” -Me
My write-up gist on GitHub:
“It’s Chromebook easy, except it’s actually Cloud image based Fedora. Atomic updates, so easy. 🤯” -Me
We don’t like the word immutable. It can confuse people.
Or keep using windows and traditional Linux distros/installs and keep complaining >.>
“BTW I wrote 90% of it on my beanbag on my steam deck.” -me
Edit:
If I came off as know it all computer nerd/ abrasive I apologize.
I’m just really excited by the project.
It exists entirely to end major pain points people are/were suffering from Linux distros. And to prove how easily it is to distribute images and build them utilizing the cloud.
I feel it’s utterly ironic to down vote, as it’s litterly a solution approach to the entirewasting time fixing my computer issue of the OP post. 😲😔😅
Legitimately etc of the study aside.
