This article sounds a decade old.
systemd attempts to cover more ground instead of less
Have I got news for the author about the kernel he seems to have no issue with. (Note: I love the Linux kernel, but being a monolith, it certainly covers more ground instead of less, so the author’s point is already flawed unless he wants to go all Tanenbaum on the kernel, too)
Maybe not unique in my opposition…but…
CEOs. (Especially of large companies)
They rarely know what they’re doing, are guessing 90% of the time, bandwagon anything they think will make them more money or notoriety, and get paid exorbitant amounts of money doing nearly nothing to actually earn it.
Oh so now that the oppressive ideology and regime are affecting them, too, the men suddenly have a problem with it. Seems we’re at the “and find out” stage.
One of the few giants upon whose shoulders we all stand.
It’s nice to know we can break the law and get away with it, as long as it’s within the scope of our duties.
The flaw is that journalism and journalists today no longer have any integrity and fidelity to the truth. They only have fidelity to what gets the most clicks and what makes the most money.
And did the person follow up with “you didn’t answer my question at all, and you sound like you have no fucking idea what you’re talking about.”? Because if not, that is what is wrong with America — letting bullshit just sit there without calling it out as bullshit.
What a weird way to open a post.
To those saying “he’s right”…
He’s complacent. He’s a useless troll. He thinks nothing should change because he’s effectively saying “it is what it is”, which is the same bullshit response I see from every single conservative who continues to simply say “thoughts and prayers” after an event like this. There are many ways to try to help prevent such a tragedy, and blanket statement of it being a “fact of life” does literally nothing.
And every day, it keeps happening. And every day, the media keeps shining a spotlight on it. And every day, nothing gets done.
When there exists an operating system that can satisfy that qualification, I’ll concede the point. Until then, OEM and retail support is what matters.
Whether any OS could ever just work isn’t even going to solve the issue.
Getting OEMs to sell laptops and desktops in Best Buy (or the like) that have Linux installed and is properly supported — that is what will help solve the issue.
Things don’t just work on any operating system.
With Windows, you have to hope there’s a solution that you can implement that doesn’t require rooting around in the insanely-outmoded registry and doesn’t require uninstalling some specific KB12345678 update.
With MacOS, you will do as Apple says, and you will like it. Otherwise, enjoy the $3000 doorstop. Granted, there is plenty you can tweak, but when there is a problem, and you find some Apple Communities post with a copy/paste official reply that has steps to take, none of which ever actually solve the problem, you will be treated with a cheeseburger on your way to the insane asylum. Full disclosure: a MacBook Air is my daily work driver.
With Linux, you are in charge — for better and for worse. This means that when there is a problem, while there is likely a solution, it will depend on many, many factors such as hardware configuration, kernel version, desktop environment, graphics card, display manager, etc. But, you can fix it with research and perseverance with no company getting in the way.
The main difference with Linux, is that you are given the freedom to deal with problems as you see fit.
So, yes, to me, Linux is as good as I think it is — not because it’s better or more stable (though subjectively I would say it is), but because it respects us by keeping the ownership and power where it belongs.
Of course she may lose, but articles like this are useless. Would be nice if people who claim to want her elected would stop doing Republicans work for them.
She has numerous policies, some of which are:
And people seem to have a very short memory about how they tackled COVID (which of course is still around, but is far less dangerous now than it once was), inflation, and jobs.
I sure wish people would stop acting like she has no policy ideas and plans when she has explained many of them, multiple times.
All it requires is listening. And therein lies the problem.
But yeah, let’s write up an article that is effectively Fox News propaganda and act like it’s not.
First, I don’t condone sending arms to Israel or any country or group that is intent on eradication of others. Israel is run by a shit leader.
Second, Hamas is also at fault.
Third, you damn well know if Trump had been in office, shit would be even worse in the Middle East.
So stop trying to make this a single issue election — it’s not. Some of us are capable of critical thinking and can easily see that America and the world are far worse off with your petulant child.
I found that there were a couple questions I would have preferred very straight answers to, but she knows she doesn’t have the time in that interview to go in-depth on any one topic and anything in the Middle East is always an extremely complex topic to debate.
I’ll still vote for her and she’ll likely win. Assuming you’re an American citizen, if you want to vote for Trump, that’s your right, but you will be voting for a convicted felon, whose policies are limited to “dictators love me” and “my crowd size is bigger” and “I’m not weird, they’re weird.”
I’d rather have an adult in the White House, personally.
Anyone with a modicum of intelligence should leave Twitter. It is a cesspool of degenerates now. Best to let it fester and die.
I have been using Linux off and on for 25 years (using the server pretty consistently, but always hedged with the desktop for various reasons). Since Proton and GE-Proton allow every game I want to play to work in Linux, back when Recall was first announced, I decided to finally stop hedging and went all in on the Linux desktop.
And I’m not going back. Everything is working for me and Microsoft can screw off if they think I’m going to allow such blatant spyware in my house. Their telemetry was always suspect, but this is now overt despite any assurances they attempt to make.
Edit>> And their “oh you can uninstall Recall” isn’t trustworthy when they will easily reinstall it with a Windows update (they have done this in the past with other software — notably Edge and Teams).
