    I don’t see the other companies fucking up so badly though.

      That one recently with the 2.3 billion record data breach is pretty bad, and we collectively had no way to prevent it since it was through a private company.

            Ok, and what else? I mean saying it happens all the time and listing one doesn’t really prove the point.

            That was super bad, and bad things like this do happen. Just saying it’s all the time seems like it’s really hyperbolic.

          Rofl, like Unix OSes never have problems. Even developers, who are among the most tech savvy users, tend to drag their feet on installing updates unless forced.

            i was mostly making a joke about how this absolutely is not a common problem on any platform, not to this degree. and at least when my Arch and Nix systems go down i don’t have anyone to blame but myself. sure, systems have update issues, but a kernel level meltdown that requires a safe mode rescue? that’s literally never happened to me unless it was my fault
