Computers used to be great. Even just starting them up used to be an entire event. It was both exciting and calming all at the same time.

Now, modern PCs startup within 10 seconds after which you're constantly bombarded with ads every 30 seconds.

Minorities, normies, women. If you say one little thing, you make a shitpost on a forum, and the next thing you know, it's misinterpreted on all social media, the essential component of a death machine. I was right! All along, since 2016, I knew it! I told you, Anon. Nobody's ever going to call me paranoid again! We've gotta get out of here and blow the lid off this thing!

more like to scam rich people. go into any headphone or iem thread and every recommendation will be dirt cheap. being an audiophile hasn't been about mindlessly wasting money for like a decade now, its a dead stereotype only used by people who want to cope about using shitty headphones. the best iems are like $15 and the best headphones are like $130

This. Why has CD audio replay tech regressed to badly in the recent years (decades)?
Where the FUCK is my CD-text capable SACD player that is of respectable build quality that is also reasonably priced?!

It doesn't know jack shit about anything.

Lifetime windows user here
I just bought a new laptop with linux debian 13 and I regret it now because I started fearing security issues for someone who is not an expert. I should have probably bought a mac.

My goal is the highest security and privacy without the need to be a highly technical user

Should I just install windows on it and maybe get a mac later?

that's not the problem here. ubuntu lts and debian stable are basically the same age but only debian has this problem.
the problem is that debian policy says no to bundling of any dependencies. apps are supposed to use debian's system libraries. firefox upstream doesn't care about that and just bundles all their dependencies. this causes issues.

it's called static compiling, and it's a good thing in a lot of software, cuz shit breaks without it.

Actual scoop:
- Supreme Court ordered social platforms to register locally by Aug 28 or face shutdown
- 26 platforms blacked out; only TikTok & Viber complied
Gov’t stance on VPNs:
- Official decree labels VPNs “unregistered tunnels” and “cyberthreats”
- State media warns: using VPN is unsafe, illegal, may lead to fines or arrest
Why it matters:
1. Freedom of speech wiped out for 30M Nepalis
2. Creators & small businesses lose income overnight
3. People forced to VPN risk legal trouble on top of surveillance

Ads are calculated psychological attacks against you and proprietary software is a cancer within the Noosphere that enables the outdated paradigm of oversized, monopolistic publishers in an age where anyone with an internet connection is a publisher.

are you attempting to justify advertisements in your operating system. you are the reason we can't have nice things. microsoft makes most of their money selling to businesses. they don't need ad revenue in their operating system. they include it because stupid goyim cattle like you exist that would vehemently defend its inclusion and act as if the multiBILLION dollar corporation NEEDS to intrusively monetize every aspect of your spyware os. kill yourself.
