It’s a common insult in many languages - with a lot of theories about origins. You can track medival usage of this all over Europe, but I have no knowledge about other continents.

Insults in general hold more power in honor-cultures. Your grandparents might have reacted the same way she did, while you might not feel the same.

You’d have to attract users with useful knowledge. The site is filled with posts being only a link and 0 comments. The domain will be pushed down just by the low total score it will get. It took Reddit perhaps 10 years to get to the top of ranks, and that was with great content

There’s 0 need for Linux to grow. It powers 80% of new web-apps, runs the big gaming systems, parts of azure and aws. It’s the go-to server os for most use-cases.

The Linux desktop needs to mature if it’s to grow. Non-tech users don’t care for “new and innovative ux paradigms”. They don’t wanna scan the internet to figure out why sound is missing after upgrading to pop_os 4. That or they need someone close by to fix it for free

It’s the shared understanding of them that makes them into a language and bring them usefulness

Probably - but not as easy as your android device. Ask the black hats if they prefer their victim on iOS or android - it should help identify the most insecure device.

Other factors besides calories per square-whatever-an-acre is, is how much fertiliser, how often does the land need to rest.
It does empty the ground of some nutrients. I love them and grew up on a small potato farm.
