I'm feeling pretty smug. (Linux user since 2001).

@pthane @praest76 @Walrus I expect the problem with smugness to be most concentrated among Linux users. After all, Apple users have little reason to be smug since they are owned just as much as Windows users, it's just that they are owned by Apple instead of Microsoft. There is no significant difference between them.

I prefer the term "indentured", though "owned" is also accurate. =)

@praest76 Crowdstrike screwed their RHEL 9 users pretty hard a couple months ago.

@jamesbritt @praest76 At least it shows a way to do this without full kernel privileges.

@jamesbritt @praest76 is this verified? Could be just an Internet story for attention.

We are going to bring back Tea-bagging just for this celebration.

Prepare for bollocks. Many, many bollocks.

@praest76 Yeah I guess they don’t travel or use banking services?

@praest76 Whereas Windows users will probably still suffer Windows indefinitely.

@praest76 @oftencalledcathy The weird thing is that all our smartphones are Unix based computers now, yet the actual corporate world is still using Windoze and still having the same problems we were having when we ditched it for Linux in 2003.

@praest76 Meanwhile, us network engineers are just glad you can't possibly find a way to fracking blame this one on us for a change.

@praest76 why is Linux getting backhanded by somebody else's failures? Take your self-inflicted punishment and suck it Windows "experts"! You crawled up that black hole sun of your own accord.

@praest76 Hmm, nobody has heard any smug from the BSD and HURD users out there... things are oddly quiet. 🤔
