Current state of Linux

Considering the current state of affairs where America started using their technology, including Windows and Android, as weapons of economic warfare (read: sanctions), I’ve been looking into Linux again and let me share my findings. The current state of Linux is this:

void fork(void v) {
    return fork(v);
}

Essentially, Ubuntu forks Debian, everybody else forks Ubuntu by adding their skin and a few configurations, and they are all pretending there’s variety and choice, and if you’re trying to get anything to boot on an old Macbook with Nvidia graphics, the same thing breaks almost everywhere in the same way, and when it doesn’t break immediately, you don’t know why, you only know it breaks on suspend and not on startx. Sure, I’ll give it the benefit of a doubt and assume it works better on modern hardware (they all actually work on my 15″ Macbook Pro with Intel graphics), but one of the often recommended usage cases for Linux is installing it on old hardware, thus giving it new utility. There’s even a website recommending what distros to install on an old Intel Mac, and they are obviously pulling it out of their collective butts because I tried top two of the distros on their list and none of them managed to boot into GUI. The important thing is that they are all so incredibly certain that Linux is better than Windows and Mac. Also, there’s so much variety, almost as much as in today’s politics. Tons of political parties and they all amount to shit.
