  • To be clear - I do not disagree. OneDrive sucks and Microsoft is a greedy piece of shit company.

    However, do you think he would be better off with Linux? Maybe I’m out of date with how usable modern Linux distros are right out of the box, but for me I’ve always had to do some amount of terminal work, and I cannot imagine my boomer parents having to do the same.

    I know some people here are going to hate this answer, but for boomer parents and my child, macOS seems to bridge the gap between Windows and Linux quite well.

  • Ever shined a powerful flashlight or laser around and seen all the particles floating in the air? You can also see them sometimes with a particularly bright sun beam coming through a blind. While these visible particles probably aren’t spores, it does illustrate how much stuff you’re constantly breathing in. There is no escaping. You’re part of life, there’s billions of organisms on you and in you at all times, and they’re fighting for survival too. There’s no escape. The only reason you survive is because of your immune system, and that’s why immunodeficient people like severe burn victims and AIDS patients just die despite nothing particularly “wrong” happening to them.
