Not a fan of snopes. Copyfish and reverse image search on right click works good for desktop users.
When the kernel is updated, a reboot is necessary to load the new version. Improvements and security fixes aren’t implemented until a reboot. Services and daemons likewise need restart to ensure they’re working. When libraries are updated (OpenSSL or Gnutls for example), they might get run with the wrong version of an application.
A good point about “only a portion of Linux users” being the problem (supposedly), but the rest are doing nothing to stop them. (and not exactly doing nothing when you look at the doots)

Lol, 6 down-votes in less time than it would take to watch the video. -Brigading is real.
A lot of times memes are what they are because they’re harder to fact check (can’t copy and paste text from them). People use them to spread misinformation for fun. -This is actually a confirmed meme though.
Didn’t she let him die in the ocean though?
Custom ISOs can be made for Windows also. People using modern hardware generally dont bother for reasons.
I never see discussions of puppy or dsl outside of suggesting it for old hardware. In contrast, there’s quite a bit on Windows XP, and 7. Puppy isn’t made for modern computers and will have problems and performance issues with newer hardware. Puppy doesn’t use standard software making it troublesome to install and uncomfortable to use. Its community software lacks polish over official packages which can lead to instability.
With the limited capabilities of Linux already, it’s likely more practical to use a smart phone for web browsing and general use, and an air-gapped (or non critical) older WIndows version for what it can’t cover.
Puppy originally fit on a 1.44mb floppy disk.
The guy was crazy, but also capable of writing a working operating system and more qualified than most to criticize. He’s comparing what he made to a Commodore -it’s obvious he wasn’t looking to replace Windows or Mac.
About half the population in the US is still influenced by a religion that makes them do stupid things, but this sub isn’t about religion.
Terry makes a good case for Linux being bloated. Now if Linux is sooooo customizable, how can we remove that bloat, and why are none of the distros doing that for us?
Linus Torvalds ~10 years ago called the Linux kernel huge and bloated. Linux tends to run behind Windows and it also sees significant slowdowns from each kernel version. It’s thus not really fair to compare Linux to other modern OS’s that it simply lacks the features, and improvements of. Example: Linux just seizes when mounting an external HDD that wasn’t shutdown properly (due to Linux crashing from another issue like VLC). When the drive is connected to a Windows 11 machine, it will automatically fix the drive before mounting it. Linux advocates will address these things they don’t know about as ‘bloat’.
“It is not the first time Iranian authorities have branded a woman protesting compulsory hijab laws with a mental illness.”
-There’s got to be some degree of mental illness to do this in that country. Of course the illness can be from living in that country.
Older packages than Debian. *edit note: evangelism = ban
Controlled opposition as usual. I made a website ‘Alex Jones Exposed’. -Was at the top of search results for 2 months and did very well. Next thing I know its buried by all these fluff pieces.
A testament to how hardy fish are. If you have fish dying in an aquarium; you shouldn’t have pets.
Colony collapse was due to fungicides being sprayed in the day. -Bees don’t need extra pollen (they have plenty of food to spare which is why we have honey as a product), and they don’t need people’s lawns (pick the leaves up before winter).
Leaving leaves is just being an asshole neighbor making safe paths for vermin to get into houses, and reduce the value of neighboring properties.
Wouldn’t an android phone be a better choice? Wouldn’t an older air-gapped Windows version be a better choice? Wouldn’t using a Library computer be a better choice? Wouldn’t a type-writer be a better choice? Wouldn’t going out and making some money for something better be a better choice?
Have to make an example.
