Windows as a primary OS is somewhat vague. Server or Desktop?
Microsoft is a given.
Maybe 15% of Google uses their version of Ubuntu for desktop.
FB and Amazon are probably in a similar boat.
Apple, well, would be stupid not to use their own OS.
If you're talking the Server OSes, you might actually be right
Right now this post makes me think of Ned Stark and his paper shield, except that you don't really have a paper shield, merely a piece of paper with no writing on it.
I hope to god you have some actual proof and can take it to the FTC. If you don't and you file a complaint, you might well be facing a lawsuit on any number of grounds. To be completely honest, I don't expect this to play out well for you
No this is not true. It never ceases to fucking amaze me how people fail to understand the differences between "things" like bitcoin and things with inherent value.
Unable to google even remotely well or just unable to type? Clearly it's not the latter:

Notice how those graphs trend over 50 years at a time? There are surely peaks and valleys in them but those are still measured over years if not decades. In a pre-industrial, pre-bank, heavily agricultural world rife with plagues and famine, that's not exactly surprising. Meanwhile bitcoin is here:

It's not even remotely comparable in any, way, shape or form. Timeline is not something to discard so wantonly. The fact that 40% of gold isn't held by 1000 individuals is another huge red flag in the comparison. And as I type this, bitcoin has lost 10% of its value in a few hours this morning (9:30 AM CST). This has happened multiple times in the last month. Gold has lost some pretty heavy chunks of its value in a day, but that kind of fluctuation has happened maybe twice in the last 50 years and it's quite hit that 10% threshold. That's because while gold has easily and is often speculated on, it also has intrinsic and explicit worth in the form of jewelry and industrial use. Bitcoin, as of now, really does not have anything comparable in terms of use. It's neither the most efficient way to acquire something nor does it do something better in terms of technology than most existing technology.
Basically the only thing I see happening is people getting really pissed off if they check their luggage at the counter and it never shows up at their destination. Anything brought through security is deemed, well, "secure" so gate checking them isn't going to result in another screening. The airlines banning them from carry-on and checked will be able to do jackshiat about the former.
It's like having the stewardess check to make sure every phone is off before the flight leaves and makes about as much sense..

Because they are
It has not been on par with inflation. Please stop spouting lies.
Value of gold and silver are not pegged to inflation, so they are most certainly not inflation resistant.

So re-engineer every existing plane in the US? Fucking brilliant there. I'll let you suggest that to the airlines and the FAA.

Right, so you don't hear it.
Duh
No. Both gold and diamonds have practical uses in industrial and scientific settings.
No not at all. Then again, if you limit it specifically to fiber audio, it might well. However that is a flawed, dumb definition.
Take your pick on AI limitations, government regulations, or customer reticence.
Then why are you scared?
It is not.
Smarter when it comes to social things? Sure why not.
What country doesn't have a property tax?
No fucking shit. That's why he typed his post.
So do not use your finger or face to log into your phone?
Fucking mindblowing I know
No one tell this guy about RSA
WTF are you ranting about
They are standard. I just don't answer them
I can't tell if this is serious or sarcastic.
RAID is not backup. Just keep repeating that to yourself.
