I don't mean control from the perspective of someone posting data. I mean from the perspective of the server owner.
Because you're arbitrarily restricting yourself to old versions of tools and software. The idea is you don't want unexpected conflicts to bring down your system. But, what that means is when you do go to upgrade on something like a server, you would test the whole thing on the new version, and then migrate. That's not how people use desktops. You just feel like one day upgrading from 20.04 to 20.10, and then get a massive burst of differences. It's really hard to pin down what specifically goes wrong when something does.
So unless you have a staging environment for your desktop where you test the new version before migrating, then what is the purpose of running old versions of stuff?
Janeway for me
Non rolling release distros for your desktop makes no sense.
It's also different in who is going to take the hit, and what happens to that hit. Many of the most impacted companies are going to be major global companies who have invested in sprawling campuses. Generally they're not just going to walk away from them, leaving the banks to deal with losses and unsellable properties. I realize there have been instances of this, like in san francisco with that hotel. But It's pretty substantially different. Google can take having their multi billion dollar campus drop in value by 50% without making it anyone else's problem, or really even caring themselves.
It depends what you mean by inefficient. It's very efficient if you're optimizing for robustness and control of data.
I was arguing with one earlier about how you can't criticize desantis for attacking Disney because Disney is a corporation
It's because those are terrible ideas. You'd trust your life to a fingerprint censor or nfc nonsense? I sure as fuck wouldn't
No shit you're European. You seem to be totally obsessed with Americans
Yeah this is totally relevant to bring up Americans vs Europeans.
