I don't think the "us" in that furrie's statement is inclusive of everyone
However, I would say when talking about Linux specifically, there is a high chance that people talking about stuff being broken are people breaking stuff.
I'm sure you're right. It used to be complicated to set up printers, bluetooth, audio, but even then once set up they were fine. Now all those and just about anything else you need to manage on the machine has an easy GUI
My wife's computer runs Linux and she's never had to use a terminal (she's not a techie type)
For the UDP broadcast, you should be able to catch and change them with simple firewall rules, you'd catch packets with a destination address of the broadcast address and send them to a chain that rewrites the destination
I haven't yet been convinced that giving up meat can help. Specifically, I haven't seen the question of what happens to the grazing land.
If it is left to burn, the carbon it contains cycles grass ➡️ fire ➡️ CO2, particles ➡️ grass, etc
If it's left to rot it's grass ➡️ methane, CO2 ➡️ grass
If it is rewilded the carbon cycles grass ➡️ meat, methane ➡️ predators, etc
If left as it is it's the same, but with us in place of the predators.
I really feel like there is no way of preventing the carbon emissions of grasslands, but at least if they're making meat for us we can work on engineering a way out of the methane release, and people are working on that
And at worst it's not fossil carbon, it's renewable, the carbon emitted is captured again when the grass regrows
There's carbon in the farm equipment, but that's the same in all farming
There is nothing you can't uninstall on Linux. Linux distros, let alone desktop environments, really can't qualify as bloat
There are even enough mainstream distros to let you choose one that meets your needs with little or nothing you need to trim
Lots of people will spend a few hours then several tens of minutes monthly or so finding out how and then disabling the ads after each update
Win+L to immediately lock a windows machine. You can get the logout dialogue with alt+F4
Now that Linux can run pretty much all the games I play on the PC I don't think I'm going to have much use for windows at home anymore
I use it and find it's the fastest way to type on glass
It appears to work by matching the path your finger traces to likely words, it also works if you're slightly off the letters
The biggest problems are errors like "if" and "of" that start right next to each other and finish the same, it also capitalises anything that is also a name and you need to select the uncapitalised version from the suggestions row
Ok, let's use grain finished beef as an example. The carbon is still from a renewable source, it'll be recaptured when the grain regrows
