Linux will never come close to replacing Windows.

Here's mine, and the exact opposite of another "unpopular" opinion here which is upvoted:

Guns.

First of all pandora's box has been opened in the US and can't be closed, there's 600,000,000+ in private hands with no registry to know where/who and trillions of rnds of ammo and everyone who has any of that intends on keeping it. "American gun owners" actually end up being a larger army than most countries militaries, you're just not going to be able to short of finding a way to Infinity rock (or whatever Avengers sucks) them out of existence.

Secondly, good. I'd rather people be able to defend themselves if need be than not, be that against forces foreign or domestic, or against the crackhead down the street with a knife. All the way from the improbable fighting our government, or red dawn style fighting a foreign power on our soil, to the more likely Black Panther style activity and defending against your average deadly threats, or even just hunting for food in the event of a small/large catastrophic event that affects supply chains (if you can't get food at the store because of a natural disaster or something, at least food is walking around, it's just more work). It should never be your first resort, but you shouldn't exclude it from being your last resort.

It's anything about which people are in denial, be it the need for capitalism, the western role in Ukrain, the environmental impact of a single consumer, the validity of political objectives of the opposition, the impact of immigration, ...

My ultimate opinion is that we need to step back and notice that the denial is built on purpose and that the goal can't be to push for the victory of the own team. There needs to be understanding of the underlying problems that includes the view of the other teams to change the mechanisms that create them.

If we can't do that then all the manipulation is already the best strategy to force humanity into progress.

Milk should be poured before the cereal. I've always done this because pouring milk on top of the cereal gets the top wet and also kind of pushes the cereal down. I love crunchy cereal

COD sucks. The only good ones were world at war and the original modern warfare series. That's it. All others aren't worth a shit.

Now before you respond, yes I know there are many people that agree with this, but with people I know in real life this is unpopular.

Onedrive is not that bad of a service*.

Lemmy is full of bad people

Cycling helmets should not be mandated. If someone is dumb enough to cycle without one, that's on them.

I believe significantly more people would cycle if helmets were not required by law.

The St. Anger snare is fine.

I'm frustrated more people are complacent with the state of the world, including myself.

You can change your (psychological) reaction to everything. All psychological suffering is chosen by yourself and can be stopped if you choose not to suffer.

Of course this is simple, not easy. Almost no one can do it.

Most people I meet don't believe this and hate that I'm saying this.
