I see they still don't understand where the National Rally vote came from.

Debian used to be so good. What happened!? ( lemmy.world )

Firefox on Debian stable is so old that websites yell at you to upgrade to a newer browser. And last time I tried installing Debian testing (or was it debian unstable?), the installer shat itself trying to make the bootloader. After I got it to boot, apt refused to work because of a missing symlink to busybox. Why on earth do...

They're a feature of the economic system, not a bug. We don't have a good track record working against it.

You learn a lot more by reading and fixing. That's simply not possible with Windows.

Missed previous highway exit:

Use Debian stable / Ubuntu LTS

Don't forget to extract the product key before nuking it. For your Windows VM. 🥹

I'm so annoyed when I tell rm to delete a terabyte of data and it's nowhere near instant. I'd have probably gone insane if I was using Windows.

God doesn't work. Linux does. Prayers to God are left unanswered. Prayers to Linux are accepted via well defined interfaces and answered if you have the correct permissions.

Memes are cool. Blatant misinformation in the form of a meme to manufacture outrage, not so much.

Even though this has been explained many times since the whole hullabaloo, I'll assume you're genuinely unaware and/or perhaps got rage-farmed by someone else's meme. The current meme implies that Ubuntu/Canonical have actively disabled safety/security features in the form of withholding security updates, unless you pay for Ubuntu Pro subscription. The Ubuntu package support hasn't changed with the introduction of Ubuntu Pro. The packages that were supported by Canonical prior to this are supported the same way today. The packages that were community supported prior to this are supported the same way today. Without Ununtu Pro. There is net new support by Canonical that covers community-supported packages too which is available with Ubuntu Pro subscription. Therefore Canonical hasn't removed any existing, previously free security support. In addition, this newly added security support is available for free for up to 5 machines and it lasts for 10 years.

So tell me, what do you call the object drawn in this picture, taken from a popular Linux operating system?

A picture of a folder icon from Ubuntu

Say my name.
