This kind of mentality only works if you don't play games with other people.

Multiplayer only folk usually have a friend group that plays multiple games. If they don't work in Linux you're SOL.

Back when I tried to use Linux and never boot Windows a good 2/3rd of games I couldn't participate in and was left behind. So while it's better than it was, it's still not good.

Luckily my work hasn't disabled the remote desktop application protocol. So I do the same, but without parsec.

Can't install parsec on the work computer, and the web app displays a black screen.

I'm not a crypto guy by any means. But your point 5 doesn't make sense. Almost all of our digital infrastructure is systems being supported by other systems.

If you want to look at debit/credit card processing that is legitimately "bad enough that it requires a separate tech to work properly". The banking systems that existed before cards needed new systems to process those payment methods. From the outside looking in, your critique could literally be applied anywhere for anything.

Again I don't even use Bitcoin. That's just a bad argument.

You mean you don't want to see the same whiny post about LTT again?

People love to point the fingers at the tool used to do evil things. Instead of addressing why the evil thing is happening.

Banning and restricting guns is a band aid solution that harms the general populace more than it benefits.

Bad actors that want to inflict harm are not concerned with using something legal to get the job done. There will always be inventive whackos out there that will find ways to hurt people. Guns or no guns.

The Swiss have almost the same firearm to people ratio as America ( at least compared to the rest of the world ) and under have far fewer of the same issues. I think this is largely because of cultural differences and availability for healthcare.
