    And supports things like fractional scaling. Which is another thing that we didn't so much need 30 years ago. My 32inch curved 4K monitor is not fine with the same settings as a full HD panel on the connected laptop.

    > I'm not sure what you're doing comparing OS's to a display protocol.
    Because each of these OS's has their own graphics layer... Mac basically is modified FreeBSD with a custom graphical stack and desktop. Parts of those OS's compare to X11

    > Xorg is simply fast enough not to slow the user down

    Is a bad argument. It has noticeable latency and for some applications or graphical effects, that matters.

    I am talking about X11 the protocol, not Xorg the implementation of it.
    You keeping hearing the same points because they are true. X11 has never been ahead of Windows nor Mac in performance. I'm curious where you got the proof that it was (and is) faster then those or Wayland. Your counter argument also consists of 0 facts, just jpgs and gifs.

    Yes and no. The Linux kernel evolved (and replaced systems that no longer aligned with modern hardware), X11 is basically the same as it was 30 years ago and that's not so much the problem but it cannot keep up with the possibilties of modern graphic cards making it laggy. Also, since I started on Linux in 1997, X11 had been a sore regarding security, Wayland's architecture is better in that respect to

    Sorry, I don't think you explained what you think you can't do with a modern Linux distribution. I haven't used wine in at least a decade, neither do any of my family. We all use native Linux apps AND the browser, much the same as on Windows.

    I agree about the purge of the Russian devs, though I think they had little choice since that is mandated by the government...
    I disagree about Wayland though. The technology behind X11 is ancient and it makes it hard to do modern things that MacOS can do, I think the slow rollout combined with compatibility layers is a good way to do a transition that does benefit users in the end.

    How so? I've been using Linux since 1997 and it has never been easier now that most technology evolved to work in browser. There aren't many things I cannot do on Linux without jumping through any hoops. In fact, most of my kids had never used Windows befor they where required to in school.

    All of this is by design. They printed euros like there is no tomorrow to steel everything they can before crashing the euro to usher in CBDC's which we will reject only to accept Bitcoin which they also control and has the traceability they desire. Next up, kill off the nation state and soon after implement one world government as global communism

    I disagree that all insurance is a scam, but yeah, a lot of it is.
    I only take insurance when mandated or for risks I cannot reasonably cover

    Why is it by definition a scam if not mandated?
    My company handles infrastructure for large clients, if an employee of mine makes a mistake, the damages go up so high quickly that I can never cover them, so I insure those.

    Nope. I have collected on others though. I should probably note I'm not in the US (EU), for whatever difference that makes.

    The only insurance I know here that did not pay out a freelancer of mine is income insurance when he got his COVID shot, but experimental medicine is explicitly excluded in the policy.

    I think you need to check your definition of deadly. The flu BTW also kills some people every year.
    Secondly, masks don't stop viruses, those are tiny compared to the holes in the mask. They stop bacteria

    So you browse the web with JavaScript disabled (created by a conservative Christian who opposes gay marriage)? You checked that nowhere in the hierarchy of Google, Microsoft or Apple or your car manufacturer there is any conservative? Of course you didn't. You single out this case to go on a crusade of moral superiority with little cost in your own life.

    Yeah, I run soapbox and I respect @alex for his work even though I'm a men's rights activist and a carnivore while he is opposite of those things. I can interact politely with you even though you hold opposite views.

    You for some reason can only get along with people who exactly align with your opinion yet claim to be tolerant and morally superior. You are neither of those.

    Agreed. Being on their petty lists means at least we don't bow to their demands.

    But I like how Nostr is designed to avoid this issue entirely 😎

    It's a design flaw of the fediverse that puts way to much power in the hands of admins instead of users who don't always realize in what walled garden they live. Which is what I love about Nostr, it avoids that

    Read this carefully. Google is not a tech company, it is a data broker and ad company. Your standard android device is a data collection tool as is their browser. Do not trust them, EVER
