300-400 ms on mine.

Ofcourse, not hanging the website beats 400 ms.

Why 6.9 release implies 7.0? I think it implies 6.10 more.

Well, take any problem from a user regarding Linux - and it will not be Linux problem.

No hardware support? Not a Linux problem. Crappy drivers on Linux? Not a Linux problem. No Photoshop on Linux? Not a Linux problem.

It's always not Linux' problem.

I answer why I don't run Amarok on Windows - I get downvoted. Is HN just Slashdot v2.0?

Not compatible with Apple Music.

Amarok 1.4 was the best audio player ever. My most beloved feature - changing queue position of song in a playlist with mousewheel. Second - could reorganize your files by Artis/Album/Song.mp3.

I remember having my friends over for parties and when they saw Amarok - instantly wanted to try Linux. It was, imo, the killer app of Linux.

When I switched to Windows 7 - tried to customize foobar2000 to make it feel like Amarok, but it wasn't the same. :/

I mean that nVidia drivers will be nVidia drivers made by nVidia - same ones on Debian, Ubuntu or Arch.

Nor Ubuntu, nor Debian produce nVidia drivers.

When video drivers crash - do all GUI applications still crash with the display server?

I've toyed with Arch during Windows 7 times - after hearing how linux is more stable than windoze/windblowz - and then nVidia drivers crashed, X server crashed, aaand upon starting X - all GUI applications were closed.

Are. You. Friggin. Kidding me? People were talking about stability when such things happened? Linux stability compared to Windows 7 - zero. At that time.

Has it changed?
