Gotta love the conspiracy theorist mindset that throws common sense out the window.

LG sells ~22–24 million TVs per year and ~25–35 million monitors per year

-Do we see a problem with that and ‘surveillance’ yet?

Instead, you stick us with a pointless reply.

I read ‘top threads’ and skipped the rest. You’re not getting better results when it’s a sub known for being brigaded. -We suggest sticking with ‘new’.

‘my anecdote with limited scope is valid evidence!’

Why are you obsessed with me?

Imagine people being able to choose to block for themselves.

Typically, this kind of anecdotal n00by nonsense accompanies newer, less heard of distros. There’s plenty of bitching and legit gripes about Mint filling forums nowadays.

Perhaps read about all the garbage Linux puts out. -They don’t do the testing, QA, or slow roll outs that Windows does.

It’s not just art, it’s just about anything to do with professional productivity. Linux isn’t better for development in general; it’s better for development for Linux. -This is why you see so much propaganda about it being preferred by devs; because it’s not a simple ‘not it’s not!’. The other propagandas like Libre Office, GIMP, etc., are often debunked by professionals as not being adequate in Linux’s own communities.

I’m sure it’s not counting those of us using the free version that comes with Windows.

The heat from use damages integrated parts equally. Laptops and phones are disposable and shouldn’t waste on modularity because when one part goes, typically the rest follow. Modularity adds bulk weight and can interfere with cooling. A lot of those modules can be replaced by cheaper, and more convenient specialty cables.

Noob take.

In case you ever felt inadequate.

All the things that are easily disabled? -Sounds as foolish as having a distro for changing wallpaper, fonts and color scheme.

I have no issue with using the terminal myself, but you’re expecting other people to use something that’s foreign and unneeded when it’s not even safe to do so. Copying scripts from the internet is dangerous, and even a minor typo when you know what you’re doing can bring your system down. -Which happens even to senior system admins at times.

Some people don’t want to run Linux for the same reason they don’t want a job where a slightly off measurement in a chemical factory can destroy a town.

More than you enjoy taking cheap pot shots.

What OS is forcing updates? -Not Windows. Desktop Linux users are so self-blinding that they ignore the main reason that they end up distro-hopping. (The never ending ‘your my fault you I chose the wrong distro’ excuse.)

Yeah, sounds just like a conspiracy theorist. ‘conspiracy fact!’ lol

You do realize that it’s common for Desktop Linux users to not update because it’s more prone to breakage than Windows right?
