  • You think kids don’t know how to download and install linux?

    Yes. I think most kids don't know how to download linux. Just the same as I think most adults don't know how to do it. It doesn't matter if it's actually easy. That's not the question. The question is if people know how to do it.

    Just the same I don't think they know how to download a non-google based browser.

    It's not about difficulty. It's about desire to do so. I've heard pancakes are very easy to make. I have no desire to make pancakes. I'm 42 and have never made pancakes. I know there's eggs and flour, and a bowl. I'd have to learn. And to learn, I have to want to learn. And that all goes back to having desire to learn.

    Necessity is the mother of innovation. And right now, 90% of the population do not give a damn about which os they use. They just call it "the facebook machine", and it's their cell phone.

    Desktop across all platforms is dying. Windows 11 sucks. The ram costs are making everything unobtainable. The vast majority don't even know there is a different way. They just pull out their cell phone, check their tiktok and whatever else, and they go about their day.

    At this point three people have desktops. Gamers, hobbyists, and people who need them for work.

    So yeah. I DO think most people have zero clue that you can install linux from a usb. I also think most people have never heard of linux.

    I wish I still knew where this comic was. It was two geologists, and they're discussing how the common man must surely know of the starter rocks that everybody knows. Then they start listing a bunch of crystals and rocks nobody has ever heard of before. And they say "oh, and obviously everybodys heard of (insert rock you've never heard of)" and his coworker says "well obviously".

    Completely unaware that what seems common to them is completely unknown to everyone else. I really feel like about 30-50% of linux users have that mentality about PCs. They have a PC. They find Linux easy. Therefore it IS easy, and everybody on earth can use linux.

    For some of you, you don't see the failure of that logic, while the rest of you are cringing right now.

  • Oh god.....I hadn't considered the rule 34 of Giligans Island....

  • I've never heard of Candace Owens. How much are tickets for her concerts? $20? $200? Maybe a price without a 2?

  • Ok, but now get your girl and your mates girl to lay in bed with each other.

    Yeah. Now we got a show!

  • Kinda feels like the Skipper is Gluttony, AND wrath.

    You look at bone skinny Gilligan and thing glutton?

  • I thought linux came out around 1992?

  • The sonic game worked. So thanks for that! I don't know why the other one didn't, and I feel bad it got wasted.

  • It says invalid.

    So either it's taken, or it's so old it expired.

  • Well, think of the bigger picture. After 3-4 generations, there won't even BE consultants to clean up the mess. No one will know how to code at all. It's ALL going to be AI.

  • I'd like this guy to run for city counsil.

  • Sooooooo, trump I get. He's a narcisist. That's why he does the things he does. He's also putins bitch. So he tries to destroy america, because putin is obsessed with the cold war.

    The rest of the crew are just desprate needy sycophants, who do nothing but try to gobble up as much attention and power as possible.

    But RFKjr? Him I don't get. It's like he's an 80s saturday morning cartoon villain. He would fit right in alongside Cobra, or CLAW, or being one of Jokers henchmen.

    I'm honestly expecting him at some point to encourage people to drink bleach.

  • Maybe this is why I have no guy friends. I'd always ask how they were, and they would bust out in song, singing the Animaniacs song of countries.

  • Young people seem to grasp the situation.

  • I work at the airport helping those with disabilities. When someone has a disability, they put that in the system from the city they're flying from.

    So when they reach my city, I'm waiting in the jet bridge with a wheelchair.

    Except they ALSO add deaf people. Here's the thing, deaf people don't need wheelchairs. So I'm just waiting in that jet bridge for 20 minutes as people get off the plane.

    No part of being deaf would make a deaf person think "I need a wheelchair", so they walk right past me, not even knowing that's their wheelchair. So they don't communicate in any way that they don't need it, because they're sane and wouldn't assosiate being deaf with having a wheelchair reserved for you that you don't need.

  • You've heard of dick in a box? Try pussy in a box!

  • As soon as she leaves:

    "Ugh! FINALLY!!! I thought she would never leave...Ok, pass me the blood of the innocent."

  • No no, you read that right the first time. Family just dumped me in a park. That's right.
