Any version of Windows since 1995 has been more polished, production-ready and user-friendly than any Linux distro ever made. That's obvious to anybody who has installed both of them on the same machine.

Are Linux users just lying about their distros being a better experience than a Windows installation?

imo the biggest barrier to learning to use linux is knowing that you can give up at any time and go back to windows
you didn't have that choice picking up windows so you just powered through the bullshit.

Stop promoting OpenBSD on this board. You'll just attract idiots and faggots who will end up shitting up the mailing lists. The entire reason it's a comfy OS is because the usual people that ruin everything are too retarded to figure out how to follow development and discussion.
>>
>>107628493
While I'm ranting about it this is why Linux was ruined. We didn't have all these idiots around until web interfaces for git were built and they could lurk and participate through github. The moment social media type features were added to the Linux development process we started getting dumb shit like CoCs and endless drama only faggots would care about. When it was all still done through the mailing lists none of this was a problem.

Why is FreeBSD starting to suffer so much and import so much cancer? Xenforo powered forum. Where 99% of the people using it can't even use make.

The more "user friendly" and "community focused" a project becomes the worse it becomes. POSIX OSs were already user friendly even in the 80s. The entire point was it being user friendly enough for someone that knew what a compiler was and how to read C. Even if they couldn't program they were at least smart enough to download a tar and extract the contents then run make/make install.

The three major BSDs are already the best documented POSIX based OSs. If retards can't be bothered to read the man pages they shouldn't be hand held. They shouldn't be given a platform to cry on either. Fuck them. They shouldn't be touching a computer in the first place.

That's because you don't know how to write a program. Unfortunately you still have to deal with the brain-damaged C language and null-terminated strings, but "xargs -0 to mv or rm" is not how you're supposed to do it.

For example, I just switched to wezterm. All of my widgets, like in pic below, rely on keybindings and window rules to function. All of them had to be changed. I can't imagine trying to get a window to the exactly correct place on the screen after resizing it, when you have to recompile each time things don't line up. Further, if I come up with a handy script, I can incorporate it into my config in minutes.

What's wrong with 24/7 AI surveillance and mandatory digital ID for web browsing and computer/phone access if it decreases crime and human suffering?
10 replies omitted. Click here to view.
>>
>>107628374
Here's the idea I have in mind

-When setting up computer/phone for the first time, you need internet access and digital ID + selfie to unlock. From there on you need a selfie to unlock your phone/computer every time and your face must be monitored at all times to ensure there is no identity fraud.
-Secure Boot with hard coded unchangeable keys ensuring only operating systems with compliant AI surveillance suite are allowed to run. This AI surveillance suite will monitor your screen contents in live time constantly and send screensots + snapshot of your face to authorities if it detects anything bad.
-ISPs will be required to verify your digital ID before allowing you internet access, and must store all your unencrypted traffic associated with your digital ID. VPNs will have similar requirements or will be outright banned or regulated to require licensing and special permission to run in niche approved use cases (still monitored though).
>>
>>107628374
Can you trust government 100% always until you die?
Can you trust this will never be exploited?
Can you trust yourself that you will never be at a wrong place at a wrong time?
Can you trust AI that it will never interpret your, or anyone around you, jokes as a thought crime?

>>107628851
These concerns exist regardless of AI. The AI is simply more advanced monitoring, like the introduction of surveillance cameras was. It will send data to the police who use their discretion to decide what to do. And "wrong place at wrong time" is actually less likely when you are 24/7 tracked.
>>
>>107628374
The argument for total surveillance often relies on Utilitarianism—the idea that safety for the majority justifies the loss of privacy for the individual. However, critics argue this creates a "pyrrhic victory" where the cost of safety is the loss of what makes society worth living in.
1. The Psychological Cost: "Social Cooling"
When people know they are watched 24/7, they undergo social cooling. They stop taking risks, exploring "fringe" ideas, or behaving eccentrically. This creates a society of forced conformity, stifling the innovation and dissent necessary for social progress.
2. Function Creep & Political Control
Surveillance tools rarely stay within their original scope. A system built to stop "crime" can easily be repurposed to:
* Suppress Dissent: Identifying and silencing political rivals or whistleblowers.
* Enforce Social Credit: Throttling web access or freezing funds based on "civic behavior" or legal but "unpopular" opinions.
3. The "Honeypot" Risk
Mandatory digital IDs create a single point of failure.
* Security: If a central database is hacked, every aspect of your life (medical, financial, social) is compromised at once.
* Algorithmic Error: If an AI "glitches" and flags you incorrectly, you could be "deleted" from society—unable to work, communicate, or buy food—with no human recourse.
4. Loss of Human Dignity
Philosophically, total surveillance treats humans as objects to be managed rather than autonomous beings. It assumes everyone is a "pre-criminal" and removes the "Right to be Forgotten," meaning a single mistake can follow a person forever, preventing redemption.
> Summary: While crime might drop, the result is a "Goldfish Bowl" society—safe, but devoid of the privacy, anonymity, and freedom required for a healthy, evolving democracy.
