The people who do care have already switched to Linux.

Am I the only one who first thought that the dog in the picture was wearing shoes?

Yeah, for sure, complex things like that require jumping into config files such as the fstab. Very nice you figured it out! I've been there too.

I don't doubt it would be faster and easier to do in Windows when the router manufacturer intended for users to be using Windows. You are going against the grain sometimes when using Linux, but it is ever so much more satisfying when you do get it working :)

You can use the file manager program or the disk utility for a permanent mount. It works a bit differently than windows. However, it sounds like you are not willing to learn. So I would recommend sticking to Windows.

Honestly, I appreciate those "is this dead" issues. It's a good way to check the pulse of project before you try to integrate it as a dependency for your own. But really it should only be done of there has been no activity for some time (like 2 years or so). A simple "it's not dead, it's just feature complete" or "big fixes only" would go a long way to assure the community.

I never make those issues myself, but I appreciate the others who do.

I wouldn't say elitist, when most Linux users are trying to get more people to use it. Most are just trying to help show there are better ways, and you have options, instead of just taking whatever shit Microsoft gives you.

If you are perfectly happy with Windows, by all means stick to it. It's a fine operating system. However, if you can get through the learning curve and accept not all hardware manufacturers will support Linux well. It opens up a lot of power and capabilities.

With proton, Linux can play almost all games just fine. Is it 100%? No. But it is good enough to no longer make that an excuse anymore.

It makes it legal for doctors to perform abortions. I would think free market will dictate who will offer abortions pretty quickly. Doctors gotta get that bag.

Politics isn't about solving problems. It's about money and power. That's it.

I get it, America does suck, but it becomes exhausting consistently being told how much America sucks.

Back when it was still called YouTube Red, they actually used to create exclusive content (or at least fund the creator). It was a selling point at the time. Now they just increase the number of ads to make not paying for it hurt more...

Ouch, right in the wallet!
