I mean he's tech illiterate when it comes to anything semi complicated but with the way he uses his pc and the software he uses it would just not be possible for him to switch at all, would be unable to do 70% of the stuff he wants to do.

Linux is only good for the truly tech illiterate/pretty noice users in my opinion. After that you hit a point where they are literate just enough that they would need to solve problems on linux they wouldn't have to on windows and their inability to solve problems on Linux make their experience bad.

One level above that Linux is the better option again though.

But the same can be said with windows. My life long windows user friend occasionally (a few times a year) reaches out about some significant issues they are experiencing with windows on their modern desktop.

I truly wouldn't recommend Linux for a fairly tech illiterate person like him, but really Linux is better in every category that matters to me.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Users not putting their foot down and switching to a different OS is all the consent they need. I dropped windows a few years ago when I felt they were just getting too invasive.

I use it for work and I'd say it's terrible. Although the work in do is a bit demanding for the hardware I'm given.

I remember this story and re skimmed through the article, it has nothing to do with exit nodes.

[–] Zetta@mander.xyz 2 points 1 year ago

The story you linked is from 2015, and has nothing to do with exit nodes. The feds bsuted the actual server that was used to host csam and kept it up while collecting user information for two weeks. Not exit nodes related.

There are many illegal sites hosted on tor that get taken down quite often. Tor in itself is not an insecure software and it proves that by readily having nefarious and illegal sites operate for long durations of time.

All the instances I have read about large sites that host some form of illegal content on Tor going down have all had quite unique and extensive efforts put in by law enforcement agencies to make the bust happen.

Fair enough, but hey I'm rooting for you man. I think you're gonna make it to 85+!

This 100%. My partner and I bought a house in October, and we've been doing a complete remodel on it since, spending anywhere from 30 - 40 hours a week working on the house while also working full time. This has easily been the fastest 6 months of my life and I feel like I'm going to blink and be 80 years old on my death bed.

Routines are the enemy of slowing time!
