50% of being a Linux user is hate towards Windows so I’d say it fits

They weren’t colonized that’s for sure, they were (mostly) Muslim Arabs in a country where being a Muslim/Arab was normal and didn’t imply you had less rights or straight up didn’t deserve life.

Not OP but many Linux project I follow, since they don’t have many resources, publish their releases through Torrent, a seeebox is fairly cheap (something like €10 a month) and could be easily crowdfunded even for a small project, and isn’t a huge expense anyway. And the site could just be a static page, or better yet the magnet link could be aviable on Github for people that want the precompliled binaries instead of the source.

E: did i say something controversial?

Look at rugged phones, my phone is thick like a brick and weighs a pound, although it’s a extreme. There are some cool ones slightly thicker than the average phones, with better batteries (huge plus, u don’t have to recharge them 2 times a day, I have to every 4 days or so) and they rarely break. They’re also pretty cheap. I think I paid mine 300€. Tons of companies make them, from unknown ones (like the one that made mine, lol, although it’s pretty good I must say) to known ones like IIRC Motorola, Samsung and even caterpillar (the ones that make construction equipment)

I’d like to interject for a moment, what you are referring to as Mexico is in fact the United States of Mexico.  A Federation Republic comprised of 31 free and sovereign States each with its own constitution, judiciary, and democratically election Congressional entity.   The 31 individual and unique States form a Federation consisting of a bilateral Congress consisting of a Republic Senate and a Chamber of Deputies entrusted with creation of law,  imposing taxes,  ratifying treaties and international diplomacy.  The Federal entity is further comprised of an Executive wing charged with enforcing the laws,  emergency dictation and commanding the military.  The third and final wing is a Judicial entity consisting of regional courts and a High Court of 11 jurist charged with interpreting any discrepancies that may between the Sovreign States or within the Law itself

I don’t know, I’m not a power-user so systemd is just a thing in the background, I don’t have much opinions over it.

I think you might be tilting at windmills a bit.

No systemd love or hate for me, as for the meme, I respect both opinions (I’m still learning btw) but don’t particularly like proselitjzers. Sharing an opinion and experiences (like you did) is fine and often informative, what I don’t like are people (expecially on lower-quality places like 4chan) spamming stuff like “systemd is the devil and killed my child” or “systemd weights more than the Linux kernel” I guess I need to make up my mind, haven’t interacted with the OS at a low enough level yet.

In 20 years we’ll be able to run Javascript on microcontrollers, that will be an interesting day.

1. A newcomer probably doesn’t even know what X11 and Wayland are, let alone the differences between the two.

2. Linux Mint has planned experimental wayland support for Christmas 2023.

I got 3 user-deleted videos in a row

TIL selling stuff is a mortal sin

Apartheid Linux (it really exists, apparently)

Boycotting micro$oft till the day I die, OS monopolies (or close to it) shouldn’t exist. Plus their OS is mediocre at best.

Ideally every corpo should be boycotted though. But it’s quite difficult to boycott some of them (like Google, who likes to live inside every android phone, effectively having a duopoly with Apple, another really shitty company)

Same for me and my rx580 and they downvoted me on reddit for saying it, that consoomer hivdmind.

Am I victim of the Mandela effect or did this happen some years ago too? I remember setting up chrome on win10 in my tech-normie days and getting a similar thing, maybe my memory is failing me.

The competition between Chrome and Edge is very shallow, they’re two slightly altered and heavily branded reskins of chromium, the real competition would be Firefox and it’s forks (mullvad, waterfox, librewolf) (and maybe webkit aka safari) Vs chromium but there’s no big corporation behind those (except safari, but it has many of the problems that big corpo chromium browsers have) , so they’re struggling a lot.

After like what, 3 months of A/B testing in one country? Sinking ship gonna sink.

How old in the past did Linus acknowledge it? my source says he dislikes/disliked microkernel, it dates to 2001 ,if you have a more recent source proving that he no longer thinks it I’ll look at it

The source is this

Unfortunately I can’t remember the timestamp, but it’s right around when he starts speaking about when the MINIX creator bashed him, IIRC (not to bash on you, but this implies the point you’re making, that Linux shouldn’t have a monolithic kernel is 30 years old,)

Same, it read like a shitpost on /g/

Don’t the Linux kernel or the GNU core utils violate unix philosophy too? Philosophical ideas become outdated, there aren’t many presocratics around.

I know quite a few oxygen addicts then…

Jokes aside, saying that WhatsApp is an addiction is like saying that Americans are addicted to SMS, Imessage or whatever they use down there
