Lol… I was a religious Arch user for a long time. I miss running Linux as my primary OS in s lot of ways, although when I do it again it’ll be an ephemeral distro, but I had to get things done and the support and prioritization of apps that make me productive right isn’t there. I don’t blame open source developers though but large software companies that deprioritize and fudge cross platform software.

Despite Microsoft having done some contribution to open source, their culture is still very toxic and counterproductive. Graphics card makers have also intentionally locked vGPU support for consumers, almost like they’re intentionally preventing efficient Windows on Linux support.

The only people complaining about Linux users are people who just got hired by Microsoft and are trying to convince themselves Windows is the best.

That’s my point. They’re acting like fascists while trying to claim you’re the fascist.

So they banned you from speaking to show you how fascist your ideas were. The irony.

Since when did the NYT become tabloid journalism?

Or Wikipedia?

Which says, “there is no general right to free speech in the UK.”

I specifically said things that aren’t threats. Just because you don’t like what they say doesn’t mean that it isn’t free speech.

Arresting people for things they say even when they aren’t threats is anti-free speech and the UK and many European countries do not allow free speech. You can be arrested for even saying Israelis genociding Palestinians are Nazis.

Be careful. He might sue saying you have to use the platform. He’ll claim that not using it hurts his free speech.

Windows permissions can be tricky… I’ll give them that. A lot of the tools Microsoft provides are not very straightforward.

However, PowerShell and tools from Sysinternals suite, or open source tools as well, make it a lot easier.

Managing permissions on Linux, especially if doing the ACL thing, can be complicated too. I’ve really never ran into many permission issues myself. psexec has been helpful too when needing to access things as the SYSTEM user and not get those stupid prompts asking me to change permissions for protected folders.

Andrew is not very smart. Windows isn’t very good, but he is very clueless. There are legitimate things to complain about, but Andrew just complains.

I shit on JavaScript for years… but Deno (built around Rust) is honestly one of the most pleasant tools I’ve used for development, and you get all the completion in VS Code.
