    the point is that they will be locked into a walled garden with minimally-powerful hardware. Can such a device even really be considered a PC anymore?

    My main laptop is an ancient chromebook that I jailbroke and put Linux on.

    While they’re locked down, I wouldn’t really consider them to be a PC. But if you can unlock them…

    Yes. Not because Linux PCs become so much more common, but because Windows PCs become much less common.

    More and more people (normies) don’t own a desktop and only use tablets or phones. As the percentage of normies who own a desktop decreases, it will become more of just a nerd thing to have an actual desktop PC … and those kinds of people are much more likely to run Linux.

    Neither. While violent resistance to Israel’s abuses is very understandable and maybe even commendable, deliberately targeting civilians is not the way.

    I’m also under no illusion that Hamas would be any less abusive if they were the ones with the power. If they had the ability to do so, they’d gladly commit genocide as well.

    They’re also, to some degree, themselves a tool of Israel, propped up by Netanyahu’s regime in order to justify Israel’s continued aggression, oppression, and war.

    Sure buddy, sure.

    Take it this way, then:

    Socialism is when the workers are in control of the means of production. Supposedly, socialist countries accomplish this by the state being in control of the means of production and the workers supposedly in control of the state. But in reality, the workers are not in control of the state, so the workers are not in control of the means of production, and it’s not socialism.
