Why would someone get a free OS from anywhere other than the developer website?

I do wish it was as funny as a younger reddit, I used to be bowled over reading comments. I fesr we have lost a spark from all the fuckery of the world.

It wasn’t an accusation, it was a hyperbolic comment on the state of copyright law and corporate shenanigans in a deregulated free market late stage capitalism environment.

It wasnt deserving of more because you dont seem to be capable of more, you just followed the downvotes and cant justify why.

Yes and no. I support foss and am trying slowly to move myself. I would love a linux phone but supports are not in place to have a similar experience. Banking apps and app availability and feature parity are barriers. Consumers would move to something new if it filled their needs, see blackberry to iphone.

I hate microsoft so I dont care that they lost but they didnt give it enough time to build for sure, but you had huge apps like snapchat saying they wouldn’t build for their phone. This is limiting exposure.

The fact is moving out of tbe established duopoly is more akin to choosing not to have a device then it is choosing a competitor, it may aswell be a palm pilot you move to in some instances.

There were some pieces mentioned on waveform about its set up being out of box ready to be turned on by tv remote and those few console like bits that people like me wouldnt know how to do if we built.

That isnt how it works. We may have preferred others if they had been better, we were not given that option. I would prefer if windows phones existed as an alternative but they had very limited third party support.

Consumers couldnt take a phone where all their apps would not work.

Except that isnt what you said, you said No. Its not strawmaning, I am not defending my point I’m criticising your role in this as useless. My comment and your comment being the two wrongs.

Two wrongs make a right is a very solid footing for an argument.

This is intentionally obtuse, how is something going to gain traction without being hosted on services that are answerable to the US before someone else were to patent it and start the process.

Tell people down the pub and upload it to what? Pirate bay? Tiktok?

It would be incredibly difficult, the law is ripe for abuse.

Sucks that they focus solely on google produced phones though.

The US government fought encryption beyond the millenium. Pretty much still is as it gains backdoors everywhere.

Do you think there would be significant momentum behind someone posting what amounts to detailed patenting information?

Presumably someone without a following that absolutely no one that runs any of the social momentum sites would want someone else to have?

Worst kind of poster, sees a ratioed a comment jumps in for an easy jab. If I’m wrong so be it but you added less than anyone to this thread. You could have corrected me but nothing was easier.

Sure its not, I am delghted for you that you can still see the fappening nudes but if you think for a second that US hosting companies will be allowed to host content that has been flagged under this procedure you ae dreaming.

Its not conspiritorial to recognise things can be made very difficuly to find on the public facing web.

In which case some rich cunt will patent it and nuke the internet of its details

Its the keave pit until territory that people struggle with

Should I get a steam link? Not entirely sure of its purpose but those words look good

I really dont mean to be a pain…but could you walk me through this?

I actually meamt to click linux gaming

…does this just install it for me? I’m not understanding what to do here.

I had used lutris initally but steam became my go to for whatver reason.
