Because it's always so easy to compile everything you need from source! Just make sure to download, compile and install the dependencies first as well. Oh, and the dependencies' dependencies. And the ones from them. And so on. Unless you're lucky enough that there are already packaged dependencies available for you. Don't know how to compile? No problem, just read the documentation. You can be absolutely 1000000% dead serious sure that everything you need to know is documented and extremely super duper easy to understand if you don't know the source code or barely know how to code at all. And if not, maybe you can find the bits of information on the respective Discord server. It will probably be also very intuitive to know which build options you have to set in which way and which ones even exist. And that without causing conflicts with other packages you need to compile. Still got got problems with compiling? EZ, just open a bunch of issues on the respective GitHub pages. (If present. Otherwise, try to find another way to contact devs and get support, Discord for example.) Maybe, about six months later you're lucky to get a response. And if not, don't worry. Some will tell you, you should RTFM or are an idiot. Some will just close the issue because your platform isn't supported anyway. Then you know, what you did wrong. Also don't mind if your issue gets ignored.
If you finally managed to compile everything from source, congratulations! Now run the program and test if everything is working. If it's not or if it is crashing, don't worry! In developed and civilised countries you can just buy a shotgun and blast your own head away to end this suffering.

EZ! Just compile from source! /s

Yes yes. Let's continute to use energy sources which are limited in terms of available but necessary resources and cause highly problematic by-products. It has been going on so well so far. Hasn't it?

Humans need at least some meat to survive. [...] It causes long-term, serious harm to people who do not supplement their diet with at least some meat. [...] completely cutting out meat is bad for you.

That is not correct.

Advocating a vegan (or even vegetarian) diet is ignoring science and how our bodies function. [...] Pure veganism is a cult that ignores science, diet, and common sense.

To the contrary. It is very much supported by science. Are you interested in the scientific literature? I'll happily share.

Everything is a resistor. It's just a question of voltage.

*they're buying studios who make legendary games and kill them.

They are a parasite to the gaming landscape.

In the context of the comment you're defending, it isn't clear whether it is a joke.

Also, making such "jokes" in contexts like these, still carry a hateful message. If you don't mean it and don't want to shit on people like that, then simply don't do it. It doesn't get better to defend it as a "joke" as it is not clear what the true intentions are. As such "jokes" can also form opinions / views about some topic, it is reckless not to mind the hazards created by such "jokes". Furthermore, stuff like this is often seen in Motte-and-bailey fallacies.

What's next? Laughing about all the Jews who were gased by Nazis? Or all the vicitims in Ukraine who get fucked in the ass by Russia?

I think, there are some clear lines.

People care about privacy. But they care more about convenience. If the browser is preinstalled on your system and you are not making a deliberate choice to switch, you'll keep using it.
Changing a habit is a difficult task. Usually, people don't like to do it. So they stick with the worse, even though there are such beautiful things like Firefox.

That's what giants like Apple know. They draw people into their own ecosystem in order to groom them into the perfect customer. They start in schools by giving schools special cheap licenses to use Apple products. An investment into future customers, because as we know, customers will gravitate towards stuff they know.

And I wonder how such things can be legal.

Yes. Not just because of that.

Yes. Look at cost-benefit-ratios.

For my requirements it has mainly been AMD in the past (and ATI when it still existed), because usually, intel and Nvidia charge you much more money and don't really delivered that much more benefits for what I was looking for. They charge more, because they can, as they are dominating their respective markets.

However, there might sometimes be factors which would still lead to a higher benefit compared to AMD. All depends on your requirements and how much you would benefit by the respective device.

They don't care about monopoly. They care about evil China. It doesn't seem to be an issue to strenghten evil Meta and Alphabet.

I'm giving free advice:

Clean your screen regularly and don't touch it so often.
