This person uses an 8GB mac, and tried to defend Apple in the debate, going as far as to say that Apple hardware is “not that expensive”, and within 2 months regrets buying the 8gb mac.

They think Open Source is “overrated”, insecure, and not important. They think Linux users are “normies” and fakers, Linux is not a desktop OS, and have explicitly stated “F*** LINUX”.

That’s a lot of terrible opinions in just 4 months, especially for someone who calls the internet “stupid”, and supposedly doesn’t have any education.

This is either a troll account, or someone with less than zero credibility considering their opinions and statements.

They tried that, it’s called UWP. A lot of programs don’t want to be distributed through the microsoft store though, forcing them to use “old” .exe’s

Android is a dead end for FOSS in the future, but moving from one corporate owned semi-proprietary OS to another doesn’t solve anything.

The bootloader of your phone (if locked) is one of the most secure parts. It’s very hard to get into a modern phones bootloader. In contrast, finding an exploit in a running phone is a lot more feasible.

If a vulnerability was abused to get into your running phone, it will persist until the phone reboots, and the bootloader verifies the core parts of the operating system at startup. In order to persist past a reboot, malware like that would need a vulnerability in the bootloader, or a bypass for its integrity checks.

Alongside that, any background services (“daemons”) that got stuck or became slow over time are forced to restart. Operating system updates can be applied, and working memory is cleared.

In general, it’s just good advice to just reboot your phone once in a while. There’s no harm in doing so.

Do NOT click the link. Instead, go to google.com yourself, go to your account settings, and “check activity”. If there’s anything suspicious (like an attempted login from another country), reset password and ensure 2FA is enabled. Otherwise, you can safely ignore/delete the email. (But still enable 2FA for better protection)

Surprising that Boneworks wasn’t mentioned. The whole game is physics based puzzles, meaning you can either solve them, or stack a couple boxes and jump really high. These types of solutions are encouraged in the game, and there’s a couple puzzles I’ve never even solved because the walls were too low.
