They’re historically relatable because they’re based on author’s life. The author’s life currently happens to be living in a country where one constantly worries about these topics.

My systems work fine how they are and I’ve used Linux for years without ever encountering the issues they claim to solve.

Look friend. I’m not trying to be confrontational like you think. Your original post legimately comes off as an unhinged rant and makes no fucking sense. TBH I assumed you were drunk off your ass when you posted it.

You don’t have to listen to me, obviously, but you should probably take the universal downvotes on what I suspect would be a popular opinion if it actually made sense as a sign that… Your post didn’t make any sense.

My first thought would be that it’s the same as using any other browser, so not a great way to be private. Am I wrong?

It is exactly the same. You can even open the RSS files in your browser directly. They’re just XML files served via http(s)

Lol if you think that was anything other than an unintelligible rant you need to take a step back and read it again

Uhhh you ok?

Bet it’ll be grok

Direct input existed before xinput and works just fine

How is this relevant

What anticompetitive practices? This normally refers to things like selling at a loss long enough to destroy fledgling competition and the like. As far as I’m aware, steam just… provides good services that other stores don’t?

Lol that’s not a false equivalency. You don’t get to just decide words mean things they don’t because it sounds nice in your head.

If you’re so sensitive to being corrected the easy way to avoid it is to simply not create misinformation in the first place.

Yeah probably lol

EZ. Your original totally incorrect comment that you’re trying to pretend didn’t mean what it obviously meant.

You’d have to design hardware specifically that’s compatible with Linux

You don’t have to design hardware you have to write drivers.

It’s OK to admit you’re wrong.

You’re just embarrassing yourself at this point.

The cool thing is that since it is correct there is no barrier to vanilla wine using it, and stuff running well in vanilla wine instead of requiring proton’s hijinks is cool.

The only thing that is lacking for compatibility is drivers. If that’s what you meant you should have said so instead of saying hardware needs to be designed. If that’s not what you meant then you don’t know what you’re talking about.

You’d have to design hardware specifically that’s compatible with Linux

What makes you think that?

I wouldn’t assume that Java is only half as fast as C for every workload. It’s probably a lot closer than you think in a lot of real world scenarios.

Already out again!
