  • I feel like I’m insane for having to constantly reassure people on this fact, but…

    LINUX IS THE MOST DEPLOYED OS ON THIS PLANET

    Desktops are just software on top of Linux. The OS itself is superfluous. It’s in your TV, router, car, toothbrush…etc.

    Who uses what for desktop matters very little except to the people making the desktop experience. The only thing on the horizon that is going to make a huge dent in the numbers you see reported on Steam, are Valve’s new hardware.

    Meanwhile, many EU government operations are switching to Linux as fast as they can move their little fingers, but you won’t see that reflected on the stats you’re paying attention to.




  • Go back 20 years. See how many times this prediction has been made 🤣🤣

    The only shift now is Microsoft shitting the bed so hard that people don’t want to deal with them. The difference this time is the MacBook Neo.

    People would gladly pay Apple $600 for a working machine WITH support and stores everywhere to get help if they have hardware issues. It’s the new iPhone business model. They’ll be taking more desktop market share than people even imagine on the price point alone.


  • If you’re getting file verification errors, it probably means there are issues with files on one end of the other.

    So a few things:

    1. What’s this remote machine, and have you checked the filesystem recently?
    2. Have you checked the filesystem on your local machines you’re copying files from?
    3. Have you tried copying to an empty remote.traget directory and seeing if you still get these errors?
    4. If 1 & 2 are fine, and then 3 works without problems, make a short list of some of the files that are throwing errors. Do they happen every single time at these same files? What’s unique about these files?








  • It’s not about “Linux Users”, it’s the fact that the issues described are MIS-identified because the operator who claims to be proficient in technology has zero idea what in the hell they are talking about.

    Knowing how to navigate the Windows OS is like 2% of what a “technology guru” (this guy said it) needs to be fluent in. Windows in 2026 is more irrelevant than it ever has been since 3.1, and this guy is acting like becau6his fluency is in Windows he’s has some knowledge about computers in general.

    He then goes to explain IN DEPTH AND DETAIL how he does not.

    Rag on me all you want, but this is not a Linux person being a gatekeeper or withholding. This is a person with little technical knowledge missing the point and misrepresenting themselves.

    Fuck this guy.


  • There’s a social slant.

    Older female to younger male = men saying YAY

    Older male to younger female = gross, ewwww

    There is a societal shift happening right now where younger women want to date older men though. I’m assuming it’s because they find people their age toxic, despicable, and unpredictable. The fact you have to be on dating apps doesn’t help.

    The fetishists for older women from a younger male standpoint probably peaked in the 00’s. Males wanted a more knowledgeable and sexually experimental woman they couldn’t find in their age group (the idea at least). Now…these dudes are fucking insane and can’t land a date. I understand why nobody wants to date them.

    Just find someone you like being with and stop worrying about the rest. Pay close attention to the red or green flags, and if things are fine, stop worrying about it. Don’t let other people dictate your happiness.
