  • Since you like the idea so much, you go first. What’s your real name, “friend”? Put your money where your mouth is. Let’s see how safe you feel giving out that information. C’mon, old buddy old pal. What’s the harm, right? Out with it. Triple dog dare ya, bud. We’re waiting. Oh, and until you tell us, maybe can it otherwise.

  • No.

  • Boot speed is meaningless. Having to almost never reboot is everything.

  • That is NOT what you said, not at all how you characterised that exchange with your friend. Really. Go back and read what you wrote. If he came to you wanting it, cool. But again, that's not at all what you said. As for who you are, I've learned enough, and would prefer not to get to know you further. Now, other than your friend supposedly asking you, leave people alone about what OS they're running.

  • After a lot of convincing… dude. That is totally shoving it down their throat like a religion. YOU and your zealotry are the far bigger barrier to entry.

    Leave the poor guy alone. If he wants an OS, he will seek it out on his own.

  • Nothing. Nothing at all.

    1. It's not a barrier to entry. 2. Who says there is a goal to get as many users to adopt Linux?

    Linux survives with or without an influx of new users. This isn't a religion. The need or desire to go convert people to using Linux is misguided. Those that want or need it will find it. Please don't adopt one of religion's worst traits and apply it to Linux, that being the need to spread the message like a cancer.

  • Nobody needs more videos to skip over.

  • Arch and KDE Neon currently. Started with Slackware 1.0, Yggdrasil, did the old RedHat, SuSE, Mandrake, PCLinuxOS, RHEL, CentOS, and several more. Started back with Slackware and kernel 0.99pl13, I believe.

  • No. It shouldn't be part of the OS at all. It should be a third party package that one can choose to then add the repo or download the package, and manually install. And then click that you agree you want age tracking before it actually installs. It's should be very manual and opt in only, and never installed by default. That way those that wish to can have it, and no one else need comply in advance to fascism. Opt out is an awful plan. You know that. You're just trolling or are for a deeper police state.

  • He didn’t comply, he collaborated. It won’t deter anyone but pro fascist programmers from developing for Linux. Your defence of the indefensible says a lot about you, too.

  • The option is not supposed to be there at all. Don’t comply with ANY part of it, especially in advance.

  • Downvote or not, what I said is true. Linux cannot force adobe to publish software for Linux. The problem is adobe. Now go downvote them somewhere while your voting finger is so click happy and maybe stop shooting the messenger.

  • You should re-read what you wrote and see why it applies.

  • Well, I’m not in a lynch mob. So there’s that.

  • I will. You keep showing sympathy for those you relate to.

  • You are the one talking violence.

  • Not uncritically at all. I’m just not a collaborator or one to defend collaborators. Zero tolerance for them.

  • He’s not an active danger to the code and community? He’s volunteering to help implement the tools of fascism. I consider that dangerous. There is no call to action. If you were worried he was in danger, you’d contact the authorities, not try to identify yourself with him so vehemently.
