trying to solve a parenting problem with technology

That was never the goal, just the excuse.

Gonna be weird to age verify yourself to use a smart thermostat.

Why is it CALLED intelligent?

Because it is "intelligent" by definition. You're conflating the word with "highly intelligent" or just "smart".

Dogs are "intelligent" but can't they write code, but we sometimes refer to dogs as "smart".

A flatworm has intelligence but no one would call it smart.

Is that the show with the liars and thieves?

Is anything in the tech world interesting or good any more?

Steam Machine?

you might find a priest that tells you to stop smoking for your health no matter how you phrase the question about lighting up and prayer. What people are receptive to is going to vary.

Ya, I've read the thing about praying and smoking in another comment. The funny thing is that I have very specific opinions about smoking and would argue that smoking while praying is disrespectful, but God would listen in any case.

Are we surprised some people's thought processes and decision making might turn extreme when exposed to this?

Yes, actually. I'm not doubting the power of language, but I cannot ever see something anyone ever says alter my sense of reality or right from wrong.

I had a "friend" say to me recently "why do you always go against the grain?" My reply was "I will go against the grain for the rest of my life if it means doing or saying what's right".

I guess my point is that I have a very hard time relating to this.

Would you also claim the diesel cars are worthless because you can't use regular gas in them? No, I thought so

Photoshop is trash.

Minecraft works just fine (it's Java for crying out loud)

Steam works natively. Valve's most popular hardware device runs Linux.

Media player classic

You want to use a garbage Windows built-in application on Linux?

without having to deal with work around and terminal garbage as easy as I can windows?

Two things here;

1. You can get around on Linux without a terminal

2. The terminal is king in functionality

3. Windows requires a command line for many things also, this isn't a Linux only thing

If you come to Linux expecting it to work like Windows and run all Windows applications, then you're setting yourself up for failure with bad-faith expectations.

the measles attacked antigen-presenting dendritic cells which interacts with memory b-cells hence the "wiping out the immunity"

And once this happens, a trivial cold can become deadly.

You have Google. It's called immune amnesia, look it up. It's not some fringe theory. It's established science regarding measles.

the majority of influencer videos about linux during that period praised only CachyOS

Proof? Because the majority of ones I saw recommended Mint consistently.

and I bet most of them reverted back to windows

So no proof, just personal biases then.

In English language installs, Linux went up from 7% to 8%. The dip is due to an influx of Chinese users. Happens every year during Lunar New Year.
