When you're a pirate, you can't be picky on which booty to plunder

I understand you have qualms with Linux, and that's plenty fine, but when the large majority of servers and smartphones around the world run it, you can't say that no one uses it.

Healthcare is a huge sore spot in US culture right now. There's been too much high-level corruption and greed to have faith in any change.

Being a huge NIN fan, I'm completely biased and agree that Trent's version has a bigger impact. But it's important to know that Trent is definitely a fan of Cash's cover.

Systemd sounds like a way to avoid learning Linux by learning an abstraction.

Anyone could just as easily say:

Windows does not compete with macOS as a desktop operating system and I doubt it ever will. It simply does not offer the compatibility and ease of use (including for power users) that macOS - for all its faults - has.

Windows isn't compatible with Final Cut Pro, has a lackluster implementation of Adobe Photoshop comparatively, and has no support for common cli shells such as bash or zsh (without creating an emulated subsystem ala Cygwin or WSL). Setting up a Windows desktop for my day-to-day tasks is a huge pain as opposed to macOS or a Linux-based desktop OS.

As the goto "Tech Support person" in my friend group, this really strikes a nerve. I really hope I haven't come off as a know-it-all. Trying to explain any kind of broad subject feels like playing pinball with all the thoughts in my brain while trying not to let the conversation flow sink into the gutter.

I invite you to check the multitude of examples and references here. Russia's history of cyberwarfare goes way beyond the US media's recent obsession.
