I use Kagi and love it.

Same, but I recently moved to UBlue. Really good experiences so far. That distro is bulletproof.

Debug, you say? Windows is way harder to keep running than Linux. At least an immutable distro like UBlue. You don’t need to debug anything. Just get it running, get some shit installed over the top, and it will auto update forever. I’ve got lots of relatives living comfortably that way for years now. If they were running Windows, it would be a support call every week and a fresh install every 2 years.

Now, Mac I’ll grant you. A Mac will also just keep running forever. But you can run nearly every Windows game on Linux and almost none of them on Mac. And Mac requires special hardware.

And then the person saying that FF blows because Google is the default browser uses… a Chromium wrapper.

How did Trump “engage in insurrection” though? He said some firey stuff to a rally, then didn’t stop it when it was happening, but that’s all I know about.

No, not at all. More like, if your car is broken you could also ride a bike, or walk, or take a bus or a cab or a train or an airplane. Sometimes it’s helpful to have solutions presented that you didn’t even think of. Like how you assumed that the only way to deal with a broken car is to fix it or buy a new one. That’s not true at all, and I’m here to help you explore all the ways to solve your problem, not just the ones at the top of your mind at the moment.

It’s the only perspective I have, unfortunately.

Using a different tool is not abandoning the problem.

Ah yes, put your problem out in the internet, then get befuddled when people suggest solutions. Classic.

Gotcha. Not gonna keep chasing your goalposts, so have a good one!

Got it. My bad.

If you don’t like “the pimp middleman in between”, I can only assume you exclusively consume your entertainment on subway platforms and pay with dollar bills, which is great, and good for you, but I like to support creators and live a comfortable life. Some of my money goes to Bandcamp, Patreon and Google. You do you.

“Mole rat”. haha, cute. I’m not worth your top-shelf stuff, trust me. Save it for your English teacher.

I never use Chrome or anything Chromium based. You sound like you use Brave.

But if someone offers me an entertainment service at a price, I pay, or don’t use it. You’re not some noble pirate, you’re just a cheap ass who wants to consume other people’s hard work for free.

That’s what I do. Works great. Or don’t pay and don’t use it. Crazy talk, I know!
