frustratingly out of date for daily apps like the web browser

Use flatpack for those then?

The most possible answer might be more boring though: this number is increasing because more people are installing Linux in old PCs and Laptops, either out of curiosity or because they want the machine to live more years.

Still, this might make people consider install Linux in their main machine too in the future (after they pass the learning curve).

People here are so scared of bad things happening that they can't even imagine that something good might happen.

If you don't mind reading on an app, Tachiyomi is the most complete of them all: by itself it's not much, but once you go to the browse tab and download some extensions, you basically have to your disposal all manga you will ever imagine. Mangadex, Manga read, mangasee, comics... All of these websites, and many more, are available as extensions in Tachiyomi.

Libertarians can be left or right. What they have in common is that the government should have limited powers, but what they disagree with is what type of limited powers it should have. Rightist libertarians believe in laissez faire capitalism (their main name in economics is Ludwig von Mises), while leftist libertarians believe that corporations should be put at more scrutiny by the government.

The Prince one is different, since he changed his name to something that can't be even spelled.

Thank you, I still don't understand.

You can download a VM program, like Virtualbox, and then create a VM and install Linux on it (I recommend Debian), that way you can learn little by little.

I don't use brave anymore but when I did I don't remember it having a miner, just a wallet (that you can delete it anyway). Did they change it? I couldn't find anything about this miner on their site.

Rumble. I mean, you didn't asked for a good competitor.

There's also LBRY, but it's more niche

IIRC it doesn't matter what version you have, but you need to select "English (World)" when installing, instead of "English (United States)". After doing that you can see a button to create a local user, instead of a MS account user.

Dots?

One thing I don't know: if C is a compiled language already, what exactly does the C library do?

For gaming you should definitely check Garuda Linux.

I've never heard

Well, looks like conversation is impossible then. Unless you have better sources, those two words are not 100% the same. Anarchism is a specific word, coming from the greek anarkhia, meaning "without a ruler". Libertarianism, on the contrary, is a more broad word, since liberta is latin for "freedom".

a trillion

Wait, he was a trillionaire before? Interesting, now I'm curious what effects did this made to the economy, it would be a fun read (maybe).

The way I learned it is that anarcho-socialism is the extremist version of leftist libertarianism. A moderate libertarian doesn't mind the existence of a government, as long as it is limited. As for the anarchists, I know that they exist and I know that there are both on the left and the right, but I don't have interest in reading their literature (it might be a cool theory to read, but the fact that it is so far from practice makes my interest in it practically vanish).

I remember it first from twitch, many years ago.

I wasn't being an ass, I just jokingly pointed how a bit limited sighted your comment was: the way I see, a distro exists to save your time by already doing a pre-customization of the system for the user, even if it's just comestic.

Jesus, how is it even possible to have 181TB on a single computer?

To be fair, cars having safety measures now are the reason why poor people can't afford them anymore though.

And nobody took a video, or even a photo?

Why not use Linux from scratch and customizing it yourself? What's the advantage of a distro over Linux from scratch?

If you really want to pirate safely, I would suggest to use a YouTube downloader. In my phone I just use new pipe (it can download just the audio).

It's sad but it's true. People out there really believe newspapers as if they were sacred texts.
