minus-squareZkhqrD5o@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up11·7 days agoIt’s wild to me that the only way to have a functioning computer nowadays is to exclusively use Libre software. A computer, that fully saturates the CPU if you press the start menu button, is broken. A computer, that refuses to start if the manufacturer doesn’t want it to, is broken. A computer, that is glued together, is broken. A computer, that disables previous functionality and sells it back to you, is broken. The world of Windows and macOS is wild. These are big things. How do people accept them? People thought that Richard Stallman had a substance filled nightmare, but apparently it was precognition.
