Yes! Yes we can, we have fabulous Windows Subsystem for Linux and we hang out with the OpenAI chaps. I'll rant. MS can go to the ninth hell with Zuck and Larry Page et al for all I care, the only part I cannot swallow is Bill Gates now wants to play the good old man. Everything MS does today is exactly as he would always have done it. I'm sorry bill but the precedent immoral fools like you and jobs set is worth more shit and shame (and damage to culture) than your old age could ever make up for, you're a disgrace unto this world and may the memory of these men rot in a dungeon up to par with their ethical hygiene. I hope this is the year of linux on the desktop.

I hope not. Things get ruined when they go mainstream.

With all due respect, that kind of anger you have seems severely misdirected. There's better targets for it than technology companies and their former CEOs.

    Human traffickers, religious extremists, child molesters, fossil fuel companies, and adtech companies?

      What if I told you it's possible to hate more than one thing at the same time? What even IS this response?

        I would suggest that those are better targets for hatred than tech companies. I am not saying that it is only possible to hate one thing at a time, nor am I saying that hatred is a healthy emotion, I am simply making some suggestions. Of course, whether any particular group or individual is a better target of hatred than another is subjective, but I tried forwarding some groups which seem quite universally reviled.

        I'm simply making the suggestion that "Hey guys, you shouldn't hate $currenttopic, you should hate $completelyunrelated" contributes nothing to any discussion in which it's uttered. Nobody wants to hear it regardless of agreeing or not, because it's a transparent attempt to draw the conversation off-topic. Stop it.

  Oh honey, there's plenty of hate to go around. No need to prioritize.
