Most companies try to gain and retain customers. You’re suggesting that at Chipotle, they sat down and decided to actively not help theirs?

Buddy, we are talking about planes. But no, that isn’t the issue.

Agreed. I highly recommend a bidet. Feels so gross without one. But this works in a… Pinch

Am I the only one around here that just wads up an adequate amount, based on thickness? Even the cheapest of toilet paper is never an issue with this method.

Ash is the only one I’m aware of, but that’s primarily going to be found and used on stuff like routers or other embedded devices. Any modern shell can support history. That said, many users will disable it or wipe it on logout for security reasons.

Well, yes. I wasn’t really intending to make a comparison. I was just explaining the meme. There was a time when getting your wifi/network card going in Linux was somewhat of a hassle for many.

This is true today. Had you tried that back in 2005, you’d very likely be fiddling with drivers. I specifically remember making a disk that contained all the drivers I’d need if I had to reinstall for any reason. Without it and without a network, you’d have to have another computer available to grab drivers from the internet.

I think when people say it is a smaller target for virii, they are talking about an actual virus such as ransomware, crypto miner, adware, trojans, etc. I have zero doubt these types of virii are more targeted on Windows platforms. Linux servers on the other hand are indeed going to be the largest target for exploits. The primary mechanism by which a Linux server is compromised is going to be via an exploit, not an actual virus. That’s not to say they don’t exist. I administer hundreds of Linux servers in several data centers. I don’t believe I’ve ever come across an actual virus in the last decade or so, but do deal with exploit and brute force attempts nonstop. Perhaps this is a matter of semantics. I don’t consider the tools and methods used to exploit systems as a virus.

It can’t run literally everything, but it’s pretty damn good, in my opinion. Not that I find myself needing to run a whole lot with it, though.

Pretty sure that is what they are saying. They are the one who initially said that in this thread. I read them saying lower user base as meaning a lower desktop user base, which you acknowledge. Or maybe you’re responding to the wrong person.

Which part are you saying isn’t true?

I wouldn’t mind if they moved Signal to use smart contracts for messaging, but call they have to come up with is crypto? Lol.

You do not need crypto to call with it. It is simply a payment mechanism. I don’t see anything wrong with it. If anyone is uninterested, they can simply turn it off or not use it. Conversely, burning up fees to interact with smart contracts to message is what seems more silly to me. There’d be no opting out of that.

I hear what you’re saying and I’m not trying to promote Whatsapp, but want to note that backups do offer encryption. They did not use to and I believe it is off by default, however.
