He has an excellent delivery though, you can't fault him for that.
Unlike many of you, I don't feel as though my identity is somehow harmed
when someone points out the flaws of the operating system I've chosen to
use, so I just find it funny. The only thing that bothers me is that he
doesn't, for a minute, question what the media tells him.

When "pointing out flaws", attitude is everything. Those with bad
attitudes should not expect friendly responses.

Also, DumFSck (and all of the other haters) went way past "Linux has
flaws" or "Linux is inferior". They all used idiocy and lies to
attack decent, reasonable, FOSS advocates.

In the end, they all have to admit they love Linux or they wouldn't be
spending as much time as they do around here. I love Linux even though
my hardware doesn't often cooperate with it. My current computer does,
but I've shot myself in the foot by investing so heavily in Microsoft's
platform that migrating would require me to sacrifice something. Had I
continued buying DVDs and ripping them like I used to - because I
believed in truly _owning_ a product I bought - I wouldn't be in this
predicament. Unfortunately, when Linux makes me angry, I often
"retaliate" by jumping back into Windows hard and buying exclusive
content... like a housewife who sleeps with some loser to spite her
husband. It's sad, but I'm admitting to it.

Agreed, but it is nice to have a tui progressbar when copying a ton of
files (yes i know you can use rsync but that doesn't give overall
progress i think).
It's also nice to copy files from different folders into one without
copypasting a lot.

I enjoy urxvt, but Alacritty was also a pretty good terminal.
