hey now let’s be fair here, people hate C++ too
seems like not that long ago i would’ve thought that the idea of a PC without any disc drive was insane. i had to help a neighbor kid the other week when forced bitlocker bricked his gaming PC, sure enough it didn’t have any disc drive!
that can’t be real… oh no. wtaf!

a monopoly patent was literally a government invention. an actual monopoly does require the government. what you are talking about is called a “natural monopoly” in the literature. that would be a situation where there’s only one seller for something like say water in a desert town. in that case you can have price gouging and such.
now, the important bit is the LEGAL ability to prevent competition. if there is a natural monopoly on water, and the seller decided to start charging obscene amounts for water, those extreme profits would normally induce other sellers to enter the market. except when they are legally prohibited, we can expect that a natural monopoly will not last if what we call “monopoly rents” are extracted.
so you see, a true monopoly requires legal force, eg the state.
but almost no two libertarians will agree about those things. if you think there is only one “blessed” or accepted viewpoint on those topics, you’ve been duped.
for example on the rights of kids. there will be somebody who will argue they fully own themselves and parents are never allowed to hit children or otherwise harm them. then there will be some idiot who argues that because babies are helpless and the parents made it, that the parents “own” the child until some point and can do what they want with it. other libertarians will have even more differing viewpoints.
they so so fucking intolerably slow to get any amount of information out of. useless for sharing any information
so you admit you weren’t using arch in 2015? pffft
you didn’t mention your distro. is that because it’s ubuntu?
i didn’t start my tech career after high school because every career advice i got was “all jobs going to india.” could’ve had 10 more year’s experience but instead i joined the military. ugh!
easiest would be to install it on a ras pi: https://freebsdfoundation.org/freebsd-project/resourcesold/installing-freebsd-for-raspberry-pi/
another easy way to get started is to install it in a VM. once you have the process down, you could try installing it to a secondary disk or partition on hardware.
take stuff apart and put it back together. install obscure operating systems. build a network and servers for just yourself. put multiple operating systems on the same computer. repair a broken laptop or phone. just fun things like that
unfortunately they are like the only two competitive corporate email providers. all the business tools integrate with gmail or outlook and almost never anything else. shit is annoying af
well howdy and welcome, stranger! i was just wondering why anyone would leave such a comment. i didn’t intend too imply that you couldn’t comment, of course.
I’m hazarding a guess that since you immediately went and looked up statistics about my user account and included them in your reply, you’ve come here with a lot of habits from… the other place.
i don’t run this place or anything, and this is just my observation, so don’t take it as gospel. i would say that the tone here is generally a bit friendlier, so (imho) there is no need to assume hostility on the part of other commenters. i was just curious!
did somebody specifically ask you to look at this and comment? just wondering why are you asking such a weird question
i think you’re supposed to say wooosh or something like that
