“Secretly” wink wink nudge nudge

I could configure them and do everything I needed, helped many businesses with them as part of my job. But always hated it because it was such a hassle to work with them.

As long as there are no hardware backdoors openwrt should overwrite firmware/software ones.

Mikrotik is such pain in the dick. Not used them in the last 5 years but hated working with them in the past.

They shit on Mick so badly and so dishonestly that it broke my fan status. I am a hardcore doom fan and id fan. Or I guess it’s better to say I was. Once they pulled that shit with Mick, I was done. I have all prior collector’s editions and several statues and other related paraphernalia. I gave them the benefit of the doubt until Mick came with receipts. Between that and the increased pricing, I’m just going to wait for a sale and get the regular version on deep discount. If I even do that. I’m just so disappointed in them.

Fuckin ghoul

Fuck Israel

I’m not really hinting at anything. I’m saying that not everyone that comes to look at Linux will have technical info to understand why that guide matters, nor will they want to invest in learning beyond meeting their needs. Having supported windows and mac users alike, the overwhelming majority really just wanted something that wasn’t a hassle. And they favor which ever OS gives them that in the way they find least onerous.

And so the distro chooser helps the ones of those willing to put in a tiny bit of effort to try something new, but don’t want to go read extensively to do it. It’s better than rolling a die when it comes to meeting their needs.

Trying to force people to see linux the way you want them to see it will never work. It hasn’t worked for decades now. All the factions with their different ideological principles get in the way of Linux more than help it. The guide you linked is mostly removed from that thankfully and to its credit. It is also a lot of info a basic user doesn’t need to know in the end. They want “OS go brrrr”, not to understand the nuances of flatpak and snap, or why atomic might be beneficial to them. Even though knowing all of that is definitely in their best interest. I fully agree they’d be better off knowing. But they still don’t want it. You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make it drink. And since Linux people won’t generally come meet them at their level (or worse you get two people trying to ‘help’ arguing with each other instead of helping), a tool that does something like the distro chooser has to come meet them. It’s only a benefit in Linux adoption at the end of the day.

While that’s a good read for someone more technical, the distro chooser brings it to people of lower technical prowess.

I will cancel if an ad shows up. That will be my final straw.

…but you can tell someone they have wrongly defined something while giving them the correct definition. Which is what happened…

What’s the alternative? Because the DNC has been doing some real shitty things the past decade.

Please have a strong vote against the insanity. Don’t turn into USA 2:Fascist Boogaloo.

Ok, that was always allowed. Love her roles and all, but never understood people making a fuss over an actor retiring. I’m happy for them, retiring is great. I hope I get to someday but probably won’t.

I 1000% would love to get citizenship in a country I move to. An easier path would certainly help my location decisions.

…ok…was it ever supposed to? For fucks sake, some people are so far up their own ass you’d swear they could see daylight again.

Boo you whore.

Glad I have a PC. Again.

How so? That’s the first time I’ve heard that take.

Except parts come from the same places the whole ass phone does. 🙄

Red Strings Club and Midnight Ramen are two more. I loved both.
