A Russian word play around Roskomnadzor, i.e. The Federal Service for Supervision of Communications, Information Technology and Mass Media, an agency responsible, among other things, for censoring media and blocking access to Internet resources, as well as proceeding with criminal allegations on illegal content.

Pozor (Позор) means "shame".

This is basically the very instance most piracy communities are hosted on, so you get extra benefit of ALWAYS having access to it regardless of defederations.

The benefit is that it isn't just another reddit but rather network of reddits

Banned on one? Get from another.

So many questions, actually.

From a legal line of thought, Ohio age of consent is 16 years old. The guy could wait less than a year and be completely clean with cops.

But then, from the human standpoint, man is 49, what's wrong with him?

While it is true all information is available, it is not feasible for a person to educate themselves on all aspects of life to the point that would, in case of OSes, make them see Linux as an alternative and render them able to operate Linux without any issues.

We know the value of this knowledge, and we focused on that front. Someone else is great at stitching and can create great sustainable clothes, avoiding the trap modern industry gets us into. Someone else is a hacky mechanic, and can fix even modern cars themselves, and knows which ones to avoid etc. etc.

Are we to blame for not knowing everything?

We have to come from the current situation, and, as things stand, most people are not aware of Linux as real desktop alternative as opposed to "hacky server thingy". Heck, for many Windows is the way PC's work, a weird magical word to describe whatever computer software they see. That's just the mainstream narrative, one we heavily rely on in other ways.

That's not taking into account professional software and other factors holding people on Windows. A lot of it doesn't run well in the VM (even QEMU with passthrough), and dualboot is not the most comfortable way to manage different requirements.

Note to self: buy said laptop and run Linux happily ever after

You're probably vaccinated then, aren't you?

I'm talking about being non-vaccinated :D

To be fair, you have to sit at home since 2019 in order to be cautious enough not to catch it without protection :D

Watching this graph more often than that of Bitcoin
