Fun fact: open source has a definition: https://opensource.org/osd

I don't know much about Grayjay, but how you are describing it, it at best is "source open"

But the funny thing is that even with a larger user base, Spotify has NEVER posted a profit

I honestly doubt if you'd isolate Apple Music it'd be any different for them.

Lossless is pointless

I wouldn't say its pointless, but it really doesn't help much considering the quality of your average headset/earpieces.

It’s incredibly easy to fuck your partitions to hell and back, especially through Windows.

Fun fact: Windows won't allow you to delete any EFI partition (that is the only one I know of/tried) unless its through diskpart with a specific override/force option.

But then again, I somehow nuked my recovery partition by accident at some point as well.

bless the drive with a boot loader that doesn’t suck, like Grub

Ah yes, I need a whole separate OS just to boot my actual OS...

I would in no world call GRUB a bootloader that doesn't suck.

Sure, the other option is having it tied to an email, which is reliant on your single vendor and is also an easier way to create an army of spam bots. Phone numbers at least are transferable between carriers.

  1. SUSE is an in germany founded company (now in Luxembourg)
  2. https://www.sovereigntechfund.de/
  3. Not having a government directly develop a "blessed OS" is probably for the better

Got myself an IFixit Mako a while ago, really nice even if I mostly just use the philips head ones

I genuinly hate NV as a company and their propriatary software, but I can say that the software they provide is decent/good. Like... good cards and software, terrible company and philosophy/moral

I suspect they skipped checking who controls that domain at the time and just saw that it would make for a good name. Not good practice but I can see how that happened.
