There are plenty of rebel flags whose literal stated purpose is not slavery. The red and black anarchy flag comes to mind. If anarchy is what they want to symbolize, why not fly one of those?
More to the point, we started this conversation because you said that repenting rather than digging his heels in was why the racer in the original post got canned. Do you think he was right to be canned? If so, are you saying that repenting is a bad thing?
Firefox will occasionally act up if it’s updated in the background while it’s running. It detects this pretty quickly though and prompts you tobrestart thr browser when you open a new tab. That’s just about the only app I’ve had issues with though.
a single anecdote that could have been coincidence proves nothing bud. i’ve been running Arch for years and recently my laptop has been having some issues. the trackpad only works intermittently, the speakers will randomly quit halfway through a video, and lately it’s randomly shutting down with no warning when running a game. does that mean linux is terrible and nobody shouls use it cause it fucked up my computer and is a pox on all humanity? of course not. all it means is this laptop is a lemon. all those issues happen in Windows too, the once in a blue moon I have to reboot to run a game Proton doesn’t support yet; i’ve called a repair guy in twice to replace the trackpad, and both times the issue has completely gone away for a few months before creeping back again; the speaker issue gets triggered when the laptop gets bumped, so it’s almost certainly a loose connection; and i’ve all but confirmed the random shutdowns are thermal.
also, fwiw, i recently had to try to recover data from a physically damaged microSD card. plugging it into my laptop under windows, nothing happened. plugging it (via USB mind you) into the exact same laptop under linux and trying to mount it caused mount to lock up, requiring a reboot before it would do anything else involving filesystems.
am i still a linux fanboy? yeah. linux is infinitely better than windows for the things i need to do, most of which involve programming. but that doesn’t and shouldn’t mean that i believe microshaft winblows is the worst piece of software ever created and that arch is the one true OS that everyone would be using if only they would see the light (looking at you, Gardiner Bryant).
linux diehards get outta here. you’re making the rest of us look bad.
oh, don’t mind me, i’m just over here using my graphics tablet that linux came with drivers for and which worked out of the box (including pressure sensing) as soon as i plugged it in, and printing on my printer which CUPS auto-detected and went from new laptop to printing in 30 seconds, and which i have never had any issues with
