No one anywhere is daily driving a fully Foss OS, unless you can find someone running a GNU+Linux RISC-V PC, and is using it daily (sitting in front of it with keyboard & mouse or handicap equivalent) in some sort of non-automated desktop use fashion. Also they can't access like 99.9% of the web.

x86-64 instruction set is proprietary. ARM is proprietary. The drivers within your smart phone modem are proprietary (unless you are someone who is using mainline PostMarketOS, which I have high doubts about)

In this day and age we're mostly doing harm reduction. Android is harm reduction compared to iOS, just as GrapheneOS is harm reduction compared to AOSP. Maybe some day in the gay space communism future we can have pure fully Foss devices, but until then, we are stuck with harm reduction.

I'm ngl the original family guy joke wouldve worked just as well in this meme https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=alUzaMtvAPk

The federal government promises this surveillance saves 9,000-10,000 lives annually.

Wikipedia says roughly 42k people died of car related injuries in 2022.

So, the government is promising that this brand new technology that has not had any field testing whatsoever is going to reduce car related deaths by 23%?

They're lucky theres no way to sue over a broken promise.

Here's a great way to reduce car deaths to near 0%

functional public transit.

I'm not white.

It didnt come off to me as not believing that anal bleaching =/= white supremacy.

The reason I responded was because I thought it was misinformation. The lecture was because I wanted to get the point across that it will confuse people, and I was personally worried some people may just blindly believe the answer without critical thought. Misinformation kills.

I do want you to have fun though. All people against white supremacists deserve to have fun.

You did say

Kidding, of course.

but immediately followed it up with

If you want a white asshole, you can just express empathy for anyone not white, and one will appear 🤷🏻

which lead me to believe the joke part was unrelated to anal bleaching and the intended joke was Ha, aren't white supremesists stupid and annoying? which, yeah they are. The topic of white supremacy in and of itself is completely unrelated and shoehorned into the conversation though.

Saying "Kidding", making people think you aren't being serious that bleaching your anus is a white supremacist behavior, and then saying "White Supremists will show up if youre empathetic to a non-white" subverts that expectation and re-enforces the idea that you believe anal bleaching is white supremacist behavior.

If the joke was supposed to be set up in a way where you did not actually believe anus bleaching was white supremacist behavior, it was structured poorly. The first part where you said

Justh white supremacy stuff 🤷🏻

wasn't really even a joke. You weren't set up to say that and subvert expectations within the context. I'm sure such a joke couldve worked here, but the way it was executed was doomed to fail. Kind of like white supremacists.

Anyone can bleach their anus if they wanted to, its not a racial thing. If anything, the desire to do so would be body dysmorphia, as its an individuals choice due to feeling like their body doesnt look how they want it to. I am all for shitting on white supremacists but unless you have information that links anal bleaching to white supremacy in some form this just seems like you put the cart before the horse.

Actually, Steve Harvey took it

please let me in I beg of thee

The people who saw the post and artwork deemed it antisemitic. I can not and will not cast a judgment call unless I see it for myself. The article you linked does not contain either of them.

massgrave proves my point. The user has to go out of their way to find and run that script.

Linux would just work ootb. No activation needed. Ergo; Linux is easier than Windows.

It's poor form to say an apple tastes worse than an orange because its purely opinion. Theres no fact. I was trying to show the original reply is nonsensical, because for some, Android is harder than Linux. Android may not be what someone is used to.
