by boxes I just mean, linux computers for those who just use a browser to go on the internet. Those users, they don’t have to adopt the Linux philosophy.
But for people who are actively coming to linux, I wish they would come with an appreciation for the ethos of FOSS.
I’m flattered you think I have something of value to say, but what I’ve learned in life is that you can’t convince people of anything unless they want to be convinced. And ego plays a big role in that.
If you go and even imply to someone, “you’re using computers wrong,” or “there is a better way,” depending on their relationship with you, their ego will kick in: what is this guy talking about, I’ve been using computers for x years and I have it do everything I want it to. Just nod along



I had no idea about this case, but saw it everywhere. I finally saw a video about this woman, and it was very sympathetic towards her.
The way it was portrayed in the video, she desperately tried to seek help for months and was repeatedly dismissed by the healthcare system and put on increasingly powerful psychotics.
One Dr, cold cut her from one of the drugs which caused massive withdrawal issues which lead to other psychotic problems.
Considering both the father of the children, the her former mother-in-law profess her innocence (at least according to the video) is telling.
Someone below said this case is a psyop…if it is, it is merely to cover up the massive shortcomings in the healthcare system. Her Drs should be held accountable for not listening to her symtpoms, the pharma industry should be held accountable.
Again, this all predicated on a video I saw a while back, so who knows if it is true. But I have a very different view point than the majority of comments here.
