I would say no* but the asterisk has a few paragraphs involving funding sustainability, cryptobro involvement, and dubious decentralization.

I don’t think that is necessarily out of the running yet. OS development is expensive and low profit. Commodification may be inevitable. Control of the shell and GUI, where they can push advertisements and shovelware and telemetry on you, that is profitable.

So in 20 years, 50? I predict proprietary OSes will die out eventually, balance of probability.

They also tend to have linux support. Where the AAA companies want to eat the entire mammoth and scorn the scraps, small companies can thrive off of small prey and the offal. :)

I’ve been using rspamd for a while. It may be extensible to do token based classification like you want but it may take some work.

At work, when I did desktop support, the number of people who would just hit their power bar when they left every day…

It goes to show that people are complex, and contain multitudes. Cherrypicking isn’t a bad thing. The older I get, the harder I find it to get along with strangers, because I’ll have some point of contention with them. :/

I can’t speak for the others but Dawkins has fallen into an anti-trans rabbithole lately and has said some pretty hateful stuff. :(

Linux has had a long history of worms and viruses, fortunately (sorta) thanks to its server legacy. Dumb and lazy server admins have given it pretty good ‘secure by default’ behaviours and cultures.

Desktop users though: whole different set of challenges.

Among my friends it’s more like 30%

Honestly doesn’t sound like a terrible idea on paper, but this spam outbreak could kill it before it gets off paper in a real way. Giving devs a bad taste will stay around a long while.

Edit: and of course the well-earned general attitude toward cryptocurrency as scammer playgrounds is automatically putting it way in the red too.

These things should absolutely scream on Linux. Looking forward to playing with it. Windows hasn’t historically done all that well with non-x86 chipsets out of the gate.

Eeeeeevery sperm is saaaaacred…

I have crowdsec on a bunch of servers. It’s great and I love that I’m feeding my data to the swarm.

Don’t worry, they made one for you. :p

Some of that (not all) is anti EV propaganda, both funded by competitors or exaggerations and sometimes outright fabrication by people who (justifiably) dislike Musk.

Far longer, with a trust and prudent investment.

LaserJet 4 was a tank. Everything since has been various flavours of mediocre. Buy Brother.

That is nonsense. DNS is a federated system and my servers are authoritative for my domain.

I’ve been running my own DNS for like two decades on a random ass IP

It’s so easy to run your own DNS servers, I don’t expect that it’ll be offline long, unless it’s the registrar.
