Revenge does have a preventative effect. Who would the bully rather punch, the individual who instantly punches back or the one turning the other cheek?

Sure, but if CLI is for advanced users and the community points towards CLI for changing the GUI language, is changing language an advanced task? Is the community making it more difficult/intimidating than necessary?
In my case I had to pull the language data AND use a TUI configuration to change language. No biggie for someone who's comfortable with CLI, an unsurmountable hinder for those not comfortable with the terminal.
inb4 "Why didn't you use the built in GUI?". Desired language wasn't an option and no obvious way to DL it either.
why are you being taxed more than me? We use the same roads, schools and services.
Is it a question of not understanding or not accepting?
To be fair the absolute majority of online help posts involve the CLI. Want to change language on my Debian install? It's off to the CLI!
Or maybe decent mobile producers. New Pixels get 7 years of updates, Fairphone 5 gets 10.
It's a major flaw for those who doesn't want to learn how to copy-paste to CLI and take the first few steps into the terminal. Which is a valid approach.
I'm too old to pick up stuff from the ground, I use one of them claws on a stick. Also, the 3210 was a nice phone while the 3310 was for the hip kids.
I totally agree with your approach to choices. I don't have the time nor insight into politics to make educated decisions so I just flip a coin every fourth year and is done with it. Yet people berate me for my ignorance?!
I think it's a rather human thing to do, explaining oneself when refusing to lend a hand. I also think warning friends, family and those I care for about what I consider dangerous to be quite nice.
I suppose we just have to agree to disagree about how we interact and care for our fellow humans.
Sure, many jobs require people to use unethical, but legal tools and methods. I used to work somewhere like that - and what ever OS they had installed was irrelevant because it was their equipment, their systems and I didn't use work stuff for personal things.
But really, are you describing someone dependent on a job or someone dependent on certain windows-exclusive applications? Are they forced to use their personal equipment for work stuff?
