    No one in the Linux community wants to force users onto Linux. If they do that, then they are morons and should not be listened to.

    Windows is blatantly forced on users through monopolistic practices and underhanded dealings going back decades.

    I know what I actively will choose. Also it is my choice. It doesnt have to be your choice or even the right choice. Choose what you want and what you need. No one in the Linux community can or will force you to switch to Linux.

    For some of us, X11/Xorg is better , way way better than using Wayland.

    Linux means we should have a choice without sacrificing our freedom. So if I want to use X11/Xorg or Wayland, I SHOULD MAKE THAT DECISION.

    Looking at the garbage trash fire that is systemd.

    Only way I can get SysVInit back is if I use Slackware, Devuan , so a complete switch of distro and tools. No choice no freedom.


  • I can tell you for a fact, in 1999, we were running Windows3.11 and MSDOS 5.x on a brand-new Pentium II ? or something like that, because the DSP-board and daughter-card system didn’t like Win2k. We were all on the network. Everyone ran Win2k Pro while loading the test codes via network / SMB/CIFs share to that machine.

    Same could be done using Linux on all those systems except for the test rig.

    NO YOU DO NOT have to use Windows on your desktop just for your toolchain. Put that shit on a separate test-rig and isolate it.

    Best Practices and Good Standard procedures makes it possible to use Linux on the Desktop.

    It is a matter of ability and talent to do things properly using the best tools at any given time.

    Swyers disease. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XY_gonadal_dysgenesis

    A Genetically-born XY person with fully developed female-organs and no visible male-organs hence failed to go through male-puberty remaining for all intents and purposes female-adjacent.

    The Olympics committee via Scientific investigation have determined that Swyers disease persons are essentially female from birth including physical characteristics hence an exception has been made to be allowed in the Olympics female category for participation.

    Trans-persons are still not allowed in the Olympics female category no exceptions.








  • India is a very corrupt democracy. As an Indian, I can tell you that sports are inherently corrupted to the degree in which money flows into it. For example, cricket is a sport rife with corruption to the point that the entire world cricket organizations and matches and tournaments are all suspect due to the heavy involvement of Indian corruption spreading its vile degenerate fingers into everything cricketing worldwide.

    The only way you can trust anything here is if there is an independent individual measuring system that is completely corruption immune and resistant to external influences.

    For example, physics, chemistry or scientific measurements. If a boxer is doping or throwing their fights etc. You can measure for those.

    Yep. Its like finals. You get your one-shot to get it right. Else you have to rebuild to try the next 4 years after. You get to the Olympics means you are the best of the best. And winning a medal is literally 3 out of 7 Billion human beings.

    So you prepare and prepare and hope you do it all with less errors than the other guys.

    wow! somehow you came to the conclusion that I am victim-blaming ? :-/

    the perpetrators are the ones who are going to victimize the groups who cant defend themselves.

    Be prepared for all sorts of predators, pedo-philes, serial killers to start their closet journey and they will claim victimhood better than most normal people.

    Police will defend their own people even if police commit the crime.

    Right-wingers will claim special providence when their people commit the crime.

    Criminals will claim to be part of a vulnerable group just so they can commit the crime.

    Make up your own mind and judgement what is the safest choices.

    Do not become victims of criminals.

    Be Safe and Carry on living peacefully.



  • no i never said that justifies it. Chinese people go to jail if they are found browsing outside the Great Firewall.Google and other social media censorship can, just as quickly, lead to social credit scores ( well credit scores are gatekeeping poor people already ) and inevitable erosion of free speech and chill fair-use copyright exercising.

    Censorship might have edge cases ( terror attack suspect details, privacy from surveillance, etc) but it should never be the norm and it should be directly dealt with jury-trial court-cases with Billion-dollar penalties to ensure it will never happen again without stringent checks-and-balances.
