SSD litteraly mean Solid State Drive.

Embrear does marketing, adding shiny names make it look better, it's like retina, it mean nothing but people think it mean it's a good screen.

IMO i3 is badly named, I did read it multiple time _in context_ and I only found out later that it was a window manager..

git, java, go and c and are pronouncable name and are most of the time in context.

It's funny that you put firefox in the middle, because when an old person I know started to use computers for his first time, I learned him to use Chrome. When I came back several week later, he was using Internet Explorer. Why ? Because it's called Internet Explorer and he forgot about chrome.

With git your are right

>because when an old person I know started to use computers for his first time, I learned him to use Chrome.

That's why you exchange the Chrome icon with the Internet explorer one, but let's just call everything Browser or WWW-Explorer ok?

> I did read it multiple time _in context_ and I only found out later that it was a window manager..

Then work on your internal memory system and try to use a search-engine, and don't blame others for it...btw i3 is also a Car, not that your even more confused when someone wants you to show you a i3 in a Parking slot.


Meaning != "sometimes called".

Ah the good old "the tool is not wrong, you are".

Don't search any further why Desktop Linux distribution are still less used by common people than Windows or Mac.

I choose the tool i like most and that is FreeBSD. And i really give a crap about common users. Who btw use iOS or Android and NOT Windows or Mac, different tools for different jobs.

BTW you know what Metal and DirectX is? And VisualStudio is NOT another Photoshop.
