From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

That title could be better.

[–] TheGrandNagus@lemmy.world 15 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yup. Literally just add "To" before the "blame" and it suddenly becomes a lot more parsable.

Good video though.

"broken arm promises" sounds an awful lot like a violent threat. that's all. that's the joke.

Making the sentence make sense doesn't undo that joke. It still says broken arm.

[–] ASeriesOfPoorChoices@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I wasn't suggesting to fix it the way you suggested.

It was a redundant comment.

Wow, did you ask a 4 year old for that comeback? I'm getting second hand cringe that you even typed that out.

The title doesn't make sense, I stated it should add a word, you said the title is that way so they can make a broken arm joke, I explained to you that that joke would still work, then you basically said "well I don't want it fixed anyway", pointless comment.

Inb4 you do another negative IQ I know you are but what am I retort

Basically it means you have incurable stupid.

[–] ASeriesOfPoorChoices@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

oh no! you're insulting me! whatever shall I do?! 😂🤦‍♂️ You children are hilarious.

[–] TheGrandNagus@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I only called you stupid because you're incapable of understanding basic sentences. You had it coming.

[–] ASeriesOfPoorChoices@lemmy.world -1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

oh no! I had it coming! I got called nasty names because it's what I deserved and now my entire self worth is shattered!

😂 fuck me, you're pathetic. 🤦‍♂️

Wendel does amazingly deep dives on all things hardware. Hes got that deep, deep sysadmin understanding of various components and integrations that always make his videos on hardware a smokeshow, no matter genre.

I wouldn't even call this a bad title, but if that keeps you from watching one of the best IT youtubers out there, so be it.

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

How so? It seemed fine to me. In the video he discusses the problems with arm and one of those problems is Qualcomm

Jesus fucking christ. Microsoft sucks.

Linux could’ve still been in 2010s and users would migrate to it because of what microsoft is doing.

[–] Presi300@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

Definitely Microsoft... I haven't watched the video, nor do I know any controversies, my M3 MacBook air to me is proof enough that Microsoft was and still is handicapping arm on the desktop...

[–] Omega_Jimes@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 months ago

Wild that he drops this video right after I had a conversation with a friend all about this. Now I don't have to explain how Microsoft has been handicapping ARM for years.
