The sacrifices we make for not supporting corporations.
Anyway, water is non-coke and it’s an alternative to coke zero. Therefore logically my answer is valid and true, but I can read between the lines and accept your rebuke.

Water.
Go run 5 ㎞ at a decent speed and water will be the best drink ever. No need for poison-water.

The problem is that Linux just isn’t usable for the largest home computing demographic.

Linux users can’t even agree on anything significant to make progress on the distros because they’d rather abandon it and try again in a new setting. It feels like a modpack of the month, year, etc, at this point. Unstable, filled with crashes and bugs, even fedora. Incomplete documentation with half defined terms and uses due to the constant splintering. It makes it worse to learn than whatever the fuck is Microsoft’s shit documentation.

I guess you too only see the trees. A solution is not to leave the forest but to bend the trees to your will. Wherever the forest is, instead of cowering before it. A shoddy tradesman blames his tools and all that.

Is this all AI generated? None of these arguments are valid nor true. So much so that I don’t see the point of refuting them because of Brandolini’s law: “The amount of energy needed to refute bullshit is an order of magnitude bigger than that needed to produce it.”

I’m going to be honest here. If someone asks you for Windows help and you comment to tell them to use Linux, you’re an asshole, not clever.

If every year people ask for help because they’ve been weakened by a COVID infection, yet they refuse free vaccinations, then they are the assholes.

Stop defending tax-evading unethical monopolies who don’t give a crap about their users, only their profits. And stop defending lackadaisical people who have the potential to literally change the world by being part of a snowball that could eventually avalanche Microsoft’s monopoly away. Instigating change here could be so easy. For goodness’ sake we’re talking about a change of software, not sacrificing one’s life by taking a bullet or shooting one. Stand up for what you believe in. To hell with Windows. To hell with Microsoft.

Virtue by default, Linux.

Wololo.

Nothing, so I got more time. 🏆

Microsoft Windows.

To me it honestly just seems like you want someone else’s stuff for free and are just brining up morally in a misguided way to achieve that.

The article clearly mentions my use of Z-Library is to inspect before I buy. Now, because of being misrepresented twice, the discussion ends here.

“I really don’t understand why people think they have a moral right to other people’s creations.”

That’s a straw man fallacy. That statement removes all the always important context you just alluded to, a statement which was never claimed.

I like that you brought it up though, the original remark, a bit sardonic but that’s okay. It keeps me aware of my own potential generalizations, assumptions, fallacies, and whatnot.

“I like piracy too but saying that banning piracy is immortal and comparing it to apartheid, slavery and ccolonialism is just ridiculous.”

When one puts it like that it sure does seem ridiculous, but to me it is obvious that the analogy I am making is purely the fact that something being illegal does not mean it’s immoral.
