Linux Sucks (Video)
How do we know Linux sucks? Because Bryan Lunduke says so. How did he become a Linux authority? By using Linux, of course. He has also written a kids Linux book, Linux for Hank, and a grown-up Linux book, Linux is Badass. But wait! That's not all! Bryan is also one of the people behind the infamous Bad Voltage podcast.
And now, for something slightly different: In moments of weakness, Bryan admits that maybe Linux suckage isn't total, and Linux may have a good point or two and maybe some of the suckage could be removed. Zounds! Is that possible? Watch our video chat with Bryan (and/or read the transcript) and see. Or watch the entire 44 minute speech he gave at the 2014 LinuxFest Northwest, which was the 5th (or maybe 6th) "Linux Sucks" speech he's given at LFNW. That makes this a tradition, not just a speech. So if you find yourself in or near Bellingham, Washington, in 2039 you might want to pop in and see if Bryan is still updating his "Linux Sucks" speech. He'll be the geezer hobbling to the front of the room with help from his AutoCane, a device sure to be developed between now and then -- which will no doubt run Linux. (Alternate video link)

So far I'm 17 minutes into the video. And from the things being mentioned Linux sucks far worse than any of the commercial desktop OSs.
Looking forward to the "Linux doesn't suck" video, because I can't imagine what he can possibly say to counter the admissions of suckiness he's made so far.
I agree--government must be abolished at all cost. To enforce the abolishment we'll need to setup some sort of collective, to which we all contribute financially, with anti-government policing authority and all necessary powers thereto.
You can't spell "oneiromancy" without "roman".
So at some point along the way, you were indoctrinated/guilt-tripped into the PC way of thinking and now you're defending it and calling him names for preferring to read text than listen to someone babbling. There's nothing wrong with resisting change when the previous configuration was superior. Fear of change has become a new favorite fallacy among the politically correct.
On the contrary, everyone has opinions based on race, sex, culture, and ideology. In fact, those are the most common traits used. It's really quite normal and healthy for people to organize themselves by tribe. There's nothing wrong with this so long as the attributes are relevant and in context. Unfortunately, the left wing has codified a broken list of assumptions into law. If you're an overweight, disabled, non white, non straight, non male, you're privileged in law and doted on by society. If you're only a few of those, you're less privileged. If you're none, you're assumed to be a dogshit oppressor.
You're offering a false dilemma. Either we can conform to your politically correct list of assumptions or we're dogshit. I don't see how this is evidence of wisdom or growth.
