Yeah, in some countries you can buy SIM cards at 7-11. In others you need to submit your ID, connect your bank account etc

Corvid supremacy! They'll be the first to operate ancient human technology no doubt
See, the problem is they're not shooting teslas. We all know you can't do anything about shootings, it's just a fact of life

Being critical of the government vs oppressing criticism by calling it hate
Yeah I think I know what side I'm on
There is one, the interrobang: ‽
But personally I don't like this glyph, it doesn't really work outside of sarcastic questions imo.
His last comment is from 7 minutes ago so I would say no x)
Man, there's some lore behind Nvidia support in Linux. Short of it: Nvidia are assholes, they pretty much could give Linux users an on-par experience to Windows, but don't want to. Things have been generally improving in the last 5 years or so I would say though. CUDA and PCI Passthrough also usually work, so getting a cheap Intel Arc to draw your DE and using your Nvidia for heavy lifting is a relatively cheap and 'drop-in' fix to your workflow.
Linux focused companies like Microsoft
my sides
Being a contributor to an open-source project is not the same as actually owning a "commercial" product. They can voice opinions in the mailing lists, but they don't have direct influence. Sure, some maintainers work for those companies, but I would say that's hardly the same. It's sponsorship, and it's welcome pretty much no matter where it comes from in my view.
If those companies disappeared overnight, Linux would be fine. Development would be a lot slower, sure, but it wouldn't implode and instantly become worthless like macOS or Windows
"Richest" doesn't mean what you think it means
"Paradigm" is a word I chose to convey a specific meaning, which is "the way you approach/think about something". It might be more common in my language, I'm not trying to make either crypto or me sound smarter. I'm for precision of language, if you're more into newspeak you do you. You also seem to think I'm trying to convince you that "crypto is good", which is not the case. You have either misunderstood my comment, or are just trying to pick a bone. Either way, that's not very debatable for a racoon :)
My point is that people fall into fallacies by simplifying things too much, and only looking at the surface. See how your doubling down on "crypto actually bad" is beside it? Granted, I really should've picked a different case in point than cryptocurrencies ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
