Disney climbed the ladder of public domain and then pulled the ladder up behind themselves.

In this case the person you were responding to was right. It is where they put their news and weather widget. Which only exists to push people onto Bing. It is annoying, and by default pops up on rollover, not click, so it is trivially easy to accidentally pull up, pumping those Bing engagement numbers.

Some people are really tied to Unity. If you dig into the comments of the YouTube video, you can find people trying to claim Godot isn't a real engine, or is otherwise not good to use. Some people have turned game dev into a team sport in their mind.

An FYI for Windows users, check out Everything for searching your harddrive. It is insanely fast. Like, search your entire harddrive in real time as you press the letters fast. Compared to the crap Windows has built in, it feels like magic, until you realize that searching a database at fast speeds has been a solved problem for decades and yet Microsoft still continues to struggle because they want to throw in every possible piece of metadata and contents every time you search when most people just want to type a name in.

I'm sure that is what the car manufacturers claim.

Cars have been home repaired since cars existed. It has never been a notable safety concern. Somehow it suddenly is?

At that size they are certainly targeting enterprise and cloud servers. Cool that they are getting that big, but they probably cost as much as a house.

Most websites are cookie cutter garbage anyways. I see no problems with cutting out the middle men of people who know his to fill out a template and install WordPress plugins.

Actually good and unique websites will still require design and programming work.

It's certainly why it is being used to build browsers and OSs now. Those are places were memory management problems are a huge problem. It probably doesn't make sense for every match 3 game to be made in Rust, but when errors cause massive breaches or death, it's a lot safer than C++, taking human faulability into account.

DisplayPort is a better system than HDMI. It even can ride piggy back on USB-C, which means a display can both power a computer on the same line as it connects to a laptop with. DisplayPort also supports daisy chaining(although it's not a common feature on monitors), so you could potentially have a single USB-C cable going to a laptop and then have multiple monitors connected with needing a dock or anything of that sort.

Not everyone has the money for a copy of Word. There once was a time when free rich text editors were valuable. But at this point I agree it isn't needed anymore. There are plenty of FOSS alternatives to word that hit that market. Microsoft has probably kept it around this long to prevent people from looking, but now they've put their bet on cloud services.

It also has nothing to do with Linux and everything to do with how Github works. I actually give him a pass on nuking X while installing Steam, that shouldn't happen(although he did get a nice big warning, but that warning was far from user friendly). But some of the other stuff they ran into was "This doesn't work exactly like windows, therefore is bad." type stuff.
