But don’t blast me with hot air!

I’m sorry! As a large-language model, I have no capabilities to blast hot air at you. Would you like to talk about something else?

Unfortunately, corporations have bastardized the term “open” (looking at you, OpenAI) trying to get the credit Open Source software has earned.

Libre was a good choice to emphasize “free as in speech”.

Okay, it’s not a dire wolf, but it might qualify as a concerning wolf, don’t you think?

Apple has teased with making the iPhone-as-a-service, meaning you lease it instead of owning it. The tariffs might give it the pretext it needed to go ahead with the idea, because the alternative would be sacrificing some of its abundant profit margins.

My litmus test is: “Have you tried Linux?”

Even if they just used a live cd for curiosity, it means they know enough about computers to grasp the concepts that make them versatile, and were exploring around the net enough to read about it.

IIRC Sapiens, Neanderthals and Denisovans coexisted for some time, so it could be not about things that aren't human, but humans that are different. To this day, xenophobia and ethnocentrism are common attitudes.

Risk is practically nothing in your case, because you're being careful, and know what you're doing. You won't run a binary when you were expecting the Barbie movie, for example.

If you were downloading binaries, then your risk is significant, but even then, unless you're downloading new releases immediately, it's likely that your antivirus will catch the new popular ransomware after a few days, when a few thousands of people have become infected. Governments won't employ valuable zero-days on any rando who just wants to see their new isekai episode.

Probably because beautiful melons had it easy, while the ugly melons had to work on their personality and talent to make up for the shunning they got from the melon community. Big Melon always presents attractive melons on media, making it harder for ugly melons.
