I only post drunk

Dude I conceded to you why do you keep writing essays that I’m not going to read?

You’re right okay what I posted had nothing to do with ops post. I’m glad that we got down to the crux of the matter though and you’re just arguing about my opinion on whether most normal people use smartphones or not.

It’s just my opinion I’m drunk. If it makes you feel better all the stuff you wrote is true.

I told you I won’t

Nah I’m good

Hill me dying on it

lol I didn’t read what you wrote there is nothing left to debate I conceded to your point.

Ohhhh Shit you replied to my to long post with an even longer post and it’s 6am and I just cracked open another beer so let’s go.

I’m on my phone so idk how to do the quotes

The thing is, you are NOT addressing my point. I can simply return it back (without adding much) by reiterating that OP (or whichever Linux-user) just happens to be someone that has a use case for a desktop PC and has the freedom to choose their distro

Yes so what that doesn’t address my point that desktop pc computing for the majority of computers users is on the decline from my completely shitty anecdotal points most normal non tech people I know literally use their phones or tvs as computers.

Can’t help ya out with that. I believe I was pretty clear. Consider to use an LLM to explain it to ya. Or return back to it in the morning.

Wow now who’s being dismissive?

I already apologised for being off topic and random posting on a thread my original comment was already deleted and I’m fine with it. I didn’t share any misinformation I simply shared an opinion that desktop computing is going the way of the dodo other than for specific uses. I’ll fully admit that all the information I have comes from just hanging out with normal people and doing market analyses on all this would be pretty interesting but ya I was drunk posting my original comment was deleted and I apologised to op. As for the proselytising part you’re right that did just come from me and the fact that I just don’t see desktop pcs as the future of personal computing that shit is done on smart phones now.

For the second time I’ll apologise to op for derailing his question. Are we done debating now?

Or I’ll put it another way, you see that fucking weird hill? I’m dying on it.

Sorry most people touch pcs at work when it comes to the average worker they have no choice over what distribution their company school or government uses. You’re being a debate lord, the mods were correct to delete my original comment I’m drunk af and it had nothing to do with the original thread, but the fact of the matter is most broke ass people I know don’t really touch pcs unless their in a specific consumer group(gamers). I’d go as far to say that most people would never touch a desktop pc again if they didn’t need to.

No disrespect to OP I’ll remind you once again I’m drunk posting but I’ve read your comment three times now and you didn’t refute anything I said.

I’m not being dismissive I just think that this weid evangelism for replacing windows with Linux or whatever the fuck is straight out of the early 2000s when desktop pcs were the main interface people had with computing, want to be on the cutting edge of providing people with open source or free (or whatever the nerds are calling it now a days) computing for the masses targeting smartphones is the move. I want to apologise once again for derailing the thread with my drunk posts I’m gonna go buy more beer.

Doesn’t change anything I said. The whole dream of Linux as a free alternative to the desktop is fucking dead as we all have mostly close sourced computers in our pockets. I’m on a drunken rampage sorry op

Yeah me neither since I barely ever touch a desktop pc it’s not the 90s anymore and most people are on their phones.

Sorry I just got reminded of that somehow

It’s fine I’m not here asking people for forgiveness or for people to defend my shitty behaviour which I engaged in the real world. That’s why I find it strange that people will defend pewdiepie when he did the same shit and monetised it and did it all behind the safety of a first world country and a keyboard.

Ok? Why are you grouping a whole bunch of people together for something I did, I’m not speaking on behalf of a community……

Also I find it weird that people would ask my why I would admit this. It just says to me that some people are willing to hide the shitty stuff they do instead of confronting it and actually dealing with the source of the problem.

Because it is different and I’m not saying what I did was ok. I’m using it as an example of problematic behaviour that I exhibited in the real world. I’m not proud of what I did but I also can’t change the past. I could also be a coward and pretend I’m some kind of saint which I’m not. I’m not defending my what I did I’m also not defending people using the n word. As I said it’s something I did and something I knew was wrong the second I did it but as I said earlier I was ready to accept the social consequences of what I said to somebody.

Anyways I used the story of some very bad behaviour I engaged in as an anecdote to show that when people act shitty in real life there are actual consequences mainly the possibility of getting punched. The person I said it to and his friends decided not to beat the shit out of me and I’m greatful for that because I would of deserved it.

I don’t go around using the n word and I have no idea why the fuck I said it but yeah two days of drinking not sleeping will do weird shit to your brain.

No not as an insult. Just I got called it and I just said it back as I said no hard r. I was intoxicated and going through some mental health shit. I’m admitting it to prove a point that it’s very different when you say shit online then when you say it in real life, I would could of been hurt and would of deserved it as well but I talked to the guy I said it to and it turned out ok. I also didn’t monetise me using the word to an audience of prepubescent children.
