There is also usually a load balancer in front of the actual application servers, so the page is probably being served by that instead

First of all, Linux is not a desktop environment. If you meant “desktop operating system” in that statement, there are still a lot of problems with that.

Windows does have a lot going for it, wide app support, ubiquitous use in industry, and the backing of one of the biggest tech companies in the world. But for most people, linux has enough app support for their workflow with only minor modifications.

Email, web browsing, and office apps are all that a vast majority of people use their computers for. And all of these work “out of the box” in all mainstream linux distros. It just looks different than what people are used to, so they are hesitant to try it when offered, but can usually find their way around given a little instruction and time.

Look at chromeOS as an example, definitely not your traditional linux OS, but still runs on the linux kernel and has all the issues that come with that. However, chromebooks are still one of the most popular laptops for use in high schools. Schools may have ulterior motives for this choice of device such as surveillance, but the devices still work for 99% of what those students need for their classes. And a traditional linux operating system is even more flexible.

There are some apps that the libre alternatives are objectively worse (photoshop and CAD software come to mind), but people that use these kinds apps are a minority of desktop users. And support for them would likely increase significantly with more users moving to linux, making the area more profitable for companies to support.

We are all biased towards what we are used to, and that means that I am biased towards linux. However, from my experience helping others learn how to use linux, they generally don’t care all that much. For personal computers, the biggest concern they usual have is about games working, but those issues are getting easier to fix by the day

If Musk had legitimate criticism of the bill grounded in facts, then I believe it would have been perfectly reasonable to make an attempt to try to influence lawmakers. The issue here was the use of misinformation, influencing lawmakers to make decisions contrary to what a factual argument would lead them to have made.

I always upvote people who always upvote people who always upvote people spreading the good word. Although, this is my first time doing it I think.

Free software licenses (e.g. GPL) allow repackaging and selling the works, they just also require that any of the 'repackaging' is also under a free software license. You can even sell someone a piece of free software without making any changes, nobody is going to buy it though because it can usually be found for free somewhere else.

Dude, we don't upvote anything, we just really love the choice of beans.

Ideally you spend less on the advertising campaign than you make in new customers.

I think the main reason of the "default assumption" that only humans have consciousness is that we ourselves are human, and we are only able to prove our own consciousness. Culturally, at least in the Western worldview, humans are framed as equal. This means that we feel comfortable saying that other humans have consciousness as well, but start to get a little antsy about saying that "lesser" creatures have that same experience.

Yes, SDR is less efficient than a specially designed radio chip, but what you gain is flexibility. With SDR, your radio can use any transmission encoding, you are mainly just limited by your polling rate.

Specially designed radio chips thrive in constrained, high-volume manufactured devices. However, for development purposes, being able to use LoRa with an SDR is an amazing step up.

I like to think of the multiverse as an infinite field of colored static, and our universe is just a tiny segment that managed to represent a comprehensible world.
