I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!

In other words, Linux is the most deployed kernel. But if you’re talking about the “linux OS” then you’re probably actually thinking of GNU/linux, which I don’t think is as widely deployed as windows (maybe I’m wrong? that’s why I was asking). Or, you can include all OS’s using a linux kernel, in which case you’ll include all androids, but that’s not what most people mean when they talk about linux os.

Most deployed Kernel, but not desktop OS right? I don’t want to, but I will post the gnu/linux copy pasta

I left your comments as unread so if I got sick of doing the Easyeffects fix, I could try out changing the sampling rate. But the problem just… went away. lol. IDK if an update fixed it or if the gods just blessed my graphics card, but the distortion is gone after a couple months of doing nothing.

I’m surprised I can’t find any actual abacus input devices. Like, shouldn’t there be an abacus with usb that sends bytecode

Sometimes you need to enable something in the bios (virtualization? i forget what it’s called)

IDK if you can have a live windows usb, but virtualbox is great for that sort of thing.

Krita is nice. IDK how it compares to commercial products, but ctrl-c + ctrl-v works like you’d expect it to

Is that with flatpak?

I just make little videos for myself a couple times a year. So I’m far from a pro. But holy shit kdenlive and blender are powerful programs (blender moreso, but kden is still pretty cool)

Ah, cool. That sounds useful for like if you’re recording at a protest/action

Wow, too bad they didn’t at least open-source it. Take it off the app stores and disconnect the cloud service, but at least let others develop it

rsync 😪

The original intent was a hobby project, not a competitor to orher kernels

Look at the success of Linux. It’s not in opposition to capitalism, it’s ba kernel widely used by capitalists. If Linux was truly a threat to capitalism, google wouldn’t use it in their phones.

I still think that Linux and open source are great. They’re just not neccesarily anticapitalist. They definitely can be in certain circumstances, and definitely make some rent seeking impossible

I aint reading all that.

Have you tried Gnome? IMO it does a better job than OS X at providing a simple, clean, streamlined gui

Yes. That was the last straw for me. I switched to debian stable, and haven’t looked back since

less neutral than they claim to be.
