Did my point go way over your head?

Why do people not use Win 11 LTSC so nothing is installed besides barebones Windows functionality? It does not come with Microsoft Store or Media Player

You can walk to grocery store and pay with monero? I can’t find a way to buy monero without a credit card.

My point being, as long as there is never any way to buy groceries with crypto, it will never be greatly valuable. It won’t be worthess, people will want it, but crypto will never grow into anything.

Because if that, not as many online services will every accept crypto because they don’t want to pay to exchange it. But if crypto became another form of payment for retail, then a lot more online stores and services will also accept crypto instead of being responsible for taking card information.

I bought crypto and still own it, but over time I have come to the opinion that until stores and malls accept crypto, they will never grow betond being a commodity like gold. This is the highest price I’ve ever seen gold. That has me concerned of how volatile people’s finances are. The cost of living was a huge amount cheaper when gold was 65 to 70% cheaper than now.

If bitcoin ever hits $400,000, I see implosion and collapse being imminent. Crypto will never be worthlesss, at least crypto that casual observers have heard of before, but there’s no huge profit to be made from it without engaging in financial criminal activity.

So if you want to get into crypto, do definitely protect your identity at all cost before purchasing whichever currency, but also know for what principal you got it to it. If it is to get wealthy, you wasted your money. If it’s to hold on to something of value that you can trade for if economy falls off, then that could prove to be a wise decision in the future.

There’s more I could say, this might already be blah blah blah, but I hope that you understand my overall premise. I genuinelly don’t now why individual stores don’t accept crypto and then sell it almost in real time. If crypto stablized, a few people would take their pay in crypto instead of bank deposit, and just that would take money away from the elite global class if staff got paid in crypto to do their shopping.

I understand that it was an honest mistake to read as “maga”, but you have to stop viewing the world through politics or have a phrase make your mind jump immediately to a political meaning of the phrase

I’m suspicious that is code language for allowing opinions not approved to speak on the internet.

Pixel 5a is the last phone with a 3.5" headphone jack.

If you look through Braxman’s content history, he never does a video showing how to flash a phone, he only talks about it. You can do a search and from random videos from people you’ve never seen before doing step by step showing how to unlock a phone, flash it, and lock bootloader, Braxman shows nothing.

Look at hist website from 1995. He uses buzzwords. There are free website builder tools that can make a website more flashy than his. I question his skill level of what he can do vs what he has someone else do and then he takes the credit to sell.

It would be cheaper to buy any Pixel and then flash any custom ROM yourself, rather than pay an extra $100 for flashed phone that you can do in 10 minutes.

I flash GrapheneOS for free because I only touch the computer for a few steps, the rest of it is waiting for the installer to finish and automatically reboot phone.

PBS and NPR do sell a partisian message, they are not for anybody and everybody to speak. NPR and PBS only allow presentations from those who have the correct opinions and views.

That would be good for government to cut funding. Users should give away their own cash to support the projects.

Funders of any project can influence decisions, but users giving from their own personal money can keep open source software free from any influences.

GPL is evil. GPL is poison. You’re an ideologie. You are vapid of the original UNIX cultural mindset. It’s all mushy feelings you care about, not best tools to accomplish the work. You have no experience how to setup a BSD desktop. If you had a job as network gateway admin for employee network services, your argument would sound very different. You might as well as well say GPL fills my heart with so much love, I wish I could make passionate love to the GPL"

I don’t know what you are saying. Can I assume that you have never touched BSD, know nothing about how it functions?

To make it easier and more flexible, I would suggest FreeBSD on desktop and servers. For routers or firewall, there’s nothing else but OpenBSD.

You’re not a tech person, you’re an ideologue, so you wouldn’t understand the culture around ISC. If a company wants security, constancy, and longecity, BSD is the only thing to use.

Choosing between Windows and BSD, which would you prefer everybody use? There are companies that already banned GPL software from company computers, what should they use?

Unless they switch to running BSD, it’s all crap.

All games work in 11. You will get the best picture quality for graphics on 11. More DX9 games work in 11 than worked in 10. Path tracing is best on 11. I have some games that are DVD installs, no game store launcher.

There are different Linux programs that address most Windows issues but not all. With Windows, you can install Win 11, install GPU driver, and start playing games. I do avoid using Steam due to their extortion, so eventually I find games that can’t run on Linux.

There will never be any video platform that attracts talent until they pay uploaders. Every YouTube channel that has paid staff will never post anyone else, except a few on Runble. Either buy a subscription on other view websites or YouTube is the only option for anyone to not work for free. It seems that Twitter is starting to pay users but for serious information, shows, and livestreams, everyone watches on YouTube. Again, start paying out of your own cash if you want other sites to build something. I do see an alternative in the future due how giant YouTube is and its censorship of unapproved thoughts it’s going to implode on itself.

When superficially labeling anyone as “far right” for having a different view without understanding their nuances, it shows that you demand all people must be forced into conforming living under a tyrannical dictatorship because dissent is never allowed.

Does something like this look like it might work? It requires having an extra phone?
