  • I think it’s “Safe” as in “No one was ever fired for choosing IBM” or more on the nose: If you choose to install Linux on all company computers and the CFO gets mad when Excel doesn’t work, why aren’t we just using windows??!?!? Then it’s your ass on the line. You will have a million enterprise software vendors that supports Windows, fewer that supports Linux.

    It’s no longer the safe bet for a lot of companies/countries because of how USA is being run at the moment, but that’s s whole other reason.













  • The elite don’t like the “socialist” countries as it’s much harder to exploit the people. They hate the EU as it has the economic power to put rules and regulations up, that limit the amount of money they can make. And all of these companies have one goal: to maximise profits. So, they might not be directly facist but if the EU was to be broken up, they could more easily get s bigger profit.

    And if you don’t think some of these companies are controlled by people that think this way, you’re naive.





  • Starting from version 12 or 13 (don’t remember exactly) proprietary drivers have been included in the installation images, which removed the biggest pain point (IMO) for novice users.

    Yes, from version 12. I have some kind of relationship with Debian (I like the philosophy behind it) so I have always wanted to use that when I was going to switch to Linux. Version 12 was what did it for me - removed the installation pain points, as you said. I would use it on any set-and-forget computers (like parents mail-and-web computer) if I get the chance.
