I know I know - asking for citations is my standard response for folks of that ilk. Magas get the same treatment.

Generally they reply with nothing but the sound of crickets.


Countries which fought the Nazi Reich, at great cost, which have been hit with massive Muslim Terrorist attacks don’t take too kindly to hundreds of thousands of Muslim terrorists, and Islamic terrorist supporters marching through their streets screaming “Kill All The Jews”

Citation needed for the bolded bit. I must have missed the coverage of this event.


Was running an RTX2080 on for a couple years until just recently when I gave the system to a relative. More stuff worked than didn’t by far. As someone else said, it’s been at the point for awhile where I just assumed anything I wanted to run would work. Not literally everything does, so if you have one game that you must have, it could be worth a google search to see what folks are saying.


I enjoy all the things you cited for Linux users. But it’s been a spectrum.

  • I started out as “Whee everything is free (of charge)”

  • As I got more experience it was “Whee, everything is free (of charge) and tinkering is fun, and ZOMG WTF is Windows doing with Privacy??!!”

  • And for several years now it’s “Whee, everything is free (of charge) and tinkering is fun, and ZOMG WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU Microsoft?”

Windows privacy has become worse and ads have become worse, and using/supporting it at work has just really driven home what a nightmare it is in comparison.

At some point between the second and third bullets, the free (as in freedom) aspect really hit me. This 3 minute video explains it in the cutest, most non-preachy way I’ve seen.

If/when that aspect sinks in - there’s really no other choice. (Aside from BSD - but now we’re talking about an even smaller pool of likely users.)


Oh I haven’t seen that one before. I hope you don’t mind if I steal and repost it.
