Another funny thought, are you curious to open my mind regarding the issue

Let's not confuse freedom with purposeful proposition

Windows has also had a variety of freeware since before there was never an app store

Meh I had a dual boot machine ages ago. Still here collecting dust. Basically I only switched to use the Linux for down time, movies, and study, most day to day tasks from engineering software to anything I considered important enough that you do not want the results hacked or broken I would use Windows.

I think of modern machines kind of like a hammer. These days almost nobody actually remembers the guy who made the first hammer, or who discovered fire, but there's a price tag for the bow, the paper and the hammer, not so much the making of the hammer, because the actual skill involved or required to learn about it has become challenged if not cheapened to the degree that there are now multiple paths to obtain or create a hammer, yet the benchmark quality of the hammer as well as the process for creation itself as a whole is now more of an authority than the actual original statue or monolith of "hammer man" himself.

This is why I think the many flavours of Ubuntu including the many esoteric Linux distros are still interesting but still lack the diversity of use and specialization. The fact that whole blockchains are built for XYZ while sitting around pumped then dumped to trading at cents with no use goes to show how cloud computing systems and lower level computing is still very disconnected and becoming further thrown aside to uphold ponzi schemes.

I'll give you an example, more money is wasted on onlyfans per year than for people trying to use system XYZ for solving problem A, or curing cancer. Consider that to be one of the "good" reasons many men and women are so misogynistic, even without looking down on sex workers.

Should be training AI on teaching models, lecture recordings and textbooks

If anything we need more laws around the tech space as a whole

You seem to be quite in the know, would you say that this happens often across the tech space or is this a case of web platform, and in some cases the browser developers acting out?

Trying to convince people to use your product by crippling other people's stuff really needs to stop. Did they not do an analysis on the issue of diminishing returns?

I feel like there's scales of evil here Google starts to need to highlight on a whiteboard

Go home Shepard your drunk

No I don't think of it as the sword of Damocles so much as, look here's this guy that will do anything you want but will go to extreme lengths to get it done, in ways that may go against your original values, now maybe you should consider having a plan as much as you think about being results oriented

I think you're noble in this respect. I don't think many people want to watch others suffer or for there to be war, however responding by blaming Biden for a war that he has no part in is like blaming Trump for the situation in Afghanistan. Imagine before there were nukes, thousands of years ago, a guy could have a lot of horses or camels and be a big time warlord and not want to get involved in someone else's battles let alone feuds.

Sometimes it's not about acting smart or picking sides, it's about being genuine in your lack of input on the issue. The entire Israel-Gaza conflict has been going on since before even Trump's election, and even more of a loaded gun of a topic than Afghanistan.
