I feel like people here never finished his videos, he is still using linux after switching off popos, and has been heavily promoting it on the wan show. He also made a video recently on what linux os to choose, although i haven’t watched it and a video comparing ram usage on windows and linux.

There are quite a few pieces of software that have 2 different branding. For instance the windows file searcher agent ransack also goes by “file locator pro” to keep from scaring the corpos.

They literally try and positively review bazzite in the linked video.

If his teasers are to be believed thats what he does for the second installment of this.

I think the purpose of the video is to review who you can just tell to switch to linux and have them be able to do it unassisted in a short time frame. I think it does a pretty good job of showing that, the type of person linus was emulating represents a pretty large group of people and they generally can’t switch without either a large amount of frustration or a helpful friend. Also keep in mind this is the first in a series not a single video.

I think you are grossly overestimating people’s capabilities if you think anyone can switch to linux with no interactive help. https://xkcd.com/2501/ . “Setting up windows” for most people means swiping the credit card and pressing the power button. They do not care about data collection, and if its slow then they think they should buy the upgraded model.

I also think its funny how many of the people in this thread see this as a negative video, when I think it actually shows things in a very positive light, just a realistic one. I have already had someone switch to linux because of this video.

Windows laptops absolutelly come pre-installed with the drivers compatible with that system.

Also while hit or miss windows update will install graphics drivers (on a slower cadence than direct from.nvidia/amd) even in a fresh windows install. It’s a common pain point for windows update to mistakenly downgrade your drivers.

People are being exposed to something outside their bubble, and are lashing out.

bold of you to assume america will exist in 20yrs.

Are you looking for something like Lidarr?

If Linux gets popular the mega corps will just follow them there and then you’ll be asking them to uninstall Dell os or at least remove the Linux recall (powered by bing) that it comes bundled with. Just look at the modern state of android.

No actually I’m talking about Tom Sott, the variety reporter style content and a signature red shirt. Just checked out Joe scott he seems pretty cool

It was created by youtubers to try and gain independence from youtube, it’s cooperatively owned by the creators. It is mostly the same as those creators youtube content but with no ads and less ad friendly parts added in, occasionally a creator will put out some passion project that wouldn’t work on an ad supported platform. It skews edutainment and video essay type stuff, contrapoints, strange parts, tom scott, philosophy tube and Not Just Bikes are a few that are involved. Quite a lot of content overall but most of it available on youtube.

I like and use nebula too, but it isn’t really a community, I don’t think it has any way at all for users to communicate, no comments no profiles etc etc

Would this data get screwed up by VPNs?

Just remove the lid entirely.

This sort of elitism really hurts adoption

The biblical explanation:

The first pope was the apostle Simon, Jesus personally renamed him to Peter, meaning rock, because he was being reborn to become the foundation/rock of the new church. Subsequent popes rename themselves to signify their rebirth.

The historical explanation:

in 533 John II decided it would be inappropriate for a Pope to be named after a pagan god (Mercurius, his birth name), by the 10th century popes were largely from France and Germany but wanted to sound like their italian predecessors and so began renaming themselves. This happened enough to just become a tradition, with the last pope not getting renamed being in 1555 (Marceullus II)

Not to defend her, but she’s saying that the ““woke”” crowd is saying what she’s saying is as bigoted as segregated bathrooms. She’s racist for entirely independent reasons
