That's some interesting logic. Do you bother looking both ways before crossing a street or does that make you a servant to the highway system/common sense? > I

> I'd rather have an OS that doesn't get me viruses...
No problem. The OS isn't the one getting you viruses. It's you.
> Plus, it's not even about "scanning"...
Yes, that's why I said to do a quick search on the Internet, to see what other people are saying about a given piece of software. If you can't be bothered to do that, then you deserve every piece of malware that you get.

Walking wasn't created to automate tedious tasks. Computers were. Your "common sense" is of those who accepted as a law of nature that you have to defragment your hard disk, clean your registry every now and then, and re-install your OS when it gets bogged down to get a clean start. Some other stuff that was also "prevalent wisdom" among Windows folks... >Yes, that's why I said to do a quick search on the Internet, to see what other people are saying about a given piece of software. If you can't be bothered to do that, then you deserve every piece of malware that you get. Or you know, use a proper sanboxed OS and matching software, like it's 2015... It's not like permissions, sandboxes, chroot jails and containment is some hot-new fringe research topic...
- WorldWideWayne 12y agoThe OS you want doesn't exist. If you think it does, I welcome you to please just go and use it or invent one yourself instead of wasting your time trying to convince little old me. TempleOS is probably a good fit for someone like you. Enjoy that!
