No I've got an Oculus Go. And it's got bullshit Facebook spyware on it.
Nah I'm good. Not really that cool anyway after a few hours.
Maybe one day I'll get a Valve Index.
Will I never picked it up again to find out.
I have one. Not long after I bought it, it became a brick because it forced a software update that forced a Facebook sign in to use it.
Agreed, you get to pick between a system that empowers you to do whatever you like, or an unborkable system.
Yeah that's not true. There is no such thing as an "unborkable" system. There are, however, systems that aren't often borked by their developers, and systems that are easy or intuitive to fix when they do become borked, or systems that quickly ship a fix when they do become "borked" (this is Windows BTW).
The implication that any "borked" Linux install was somehow self-inflicted by the user is ridiculous.
They won't. The vast majority aren't using any kind of ad-blockers in the first place or Google would go out of business.
Nope, it doesn’t.
Yep...it does.
It’s either the user, the distro, package maintainer or upstream fucking up.
Yes that's what I'm referring to.
Remember that Android is Linux-based
People keep saying this without understanding that Android was forked with several billion dollars in funding and aimed squarely at "normal" users, and had a decade of development since then.
Most "Linux" OSes really don't bother with this. How many times has someone sent you into the Android terminal to fix a problem? Literally never. It doesn't even exist without connecting a PC. Because you don't need it.
Initial setup can be hard, and then, because GNU/Linux lets you do whatever you want, It's not hard to bork the system if you're using commands you don't understand.
But it borks itself. It doesn't require my assistance.
I have to try to find the right wifi and sound drivers from the manufacturers website, and make sure you get the right driver version that works with Windows 10.
Meanwhile these drivers don't even exist for Linux
No man, you're just supposed to say "Sup." back to them and then repeat ad nauseum.
