This meme shows up here way too often...like every other day....
Obviously there’s a need for people in this comm to uninstall their boot loaders, and a frustration that Windows won’t let them.

And it's not even that great of a flex too. "My OS lets me sudo commands that will break my system." Great, so your system lets you accidentally break the system with a fat finger mistake? Why would I want that?
Windows is geared towards a general audience that includes some of the dumbest and least technically literate people to ever walk the earth. And they have to support it. Of course they're going to limit your permissions.
Using that argument as a basis for why it’s ok for MS to disallow uninstallation of Edge: 🤡
Did I say I was defending MS' restrictions on Edge? No. I think it's dumb, but not for the reason you think.
MS prevents you from uninstalling edge because for some stupid reason a bunch of system processes and their store all require and use edge as a dependency. Removing edge would actually break a lot of things in windows. Is it stupid? Absolutely. But the reason they don't want to do that is because MS implements a lot of restrictions like this to prevent their end users from breaking windows with stupid mistakes.
But this meme isn't about allowing people to removing edge. Its trying to flex on the capabilities of linux vs. windows but using the laziest smooth brained way to do that. There are a lot of benefits to linux over windows. But the ability to sudo fuck your bootloader isn't one of them.
The reason they don't is because of the antitrust suit they had back in the day. The tried to argue internet explorer was a integrated part of the OS so they didn't have to remove it. Now they are forcing edge to be just that so they do their old anti trust shit again

Noticed that too, my memory is absolute godshit and even I remember having seen it at least twice now in the current recency.

In case anyone is wondering, that pile of symbols means true in brainfuck
I wasn't wondering. My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined
Wait, all of that for just a Boolean true value or is that some sort of logical expression?
Maybe it’s the string “true”?

Me: "I'm going to change Python3 default to >3.7" Ubuntu: scream in exceptions
pyenv and chill. Practical default it in your shells without messing with what installed packages expect.
Yeah, but still those packages should probably not be calling the generic python3 if they need a specific version of python. If they depend on system installed pip packages, there's got to be a better solution.

Wait... Microsoft is still pretending that having their web browser installed is vital to the continued operation of their OS?
Mac does the same. You can't remove Safari and you can't sudo chmod 0 /Applications/Safari.app
Ask me how I know 😒
how do you know?
Well, in their eyes, it seems vital to be sending me adverts as notifications, I guess it's probably also vital that those adverts have a browser to link through
Did we not teach them a lesson about this in the 90s?
The lesson they learned in the 90s is that you can drag a trial out long enough to get a favorable administration in office to give you a slap on the wrist.

that brainfuck code gives a memory error :(
No way you actually tested it. It would be impressive
This is the correct piece of ~~shit~~ code, somehow my lemmy app didn't write it well in the title

The first thing I do on every install. Delete the bootloader and all the bloat files in /. Especially those goddamned .files
Bailing out, you are on your own now. Good luck.
I swear I've seen this meme like 10 times
Rookie numbers. Between Reddit, Twitter and Lemmy, I'm at 50+ right now.
C is the same. Free to do whatever you want until the system stops you. Yet people hate coding in C for some reason, as there isn't enough hand holding.
Please, have mercy, I have seen this meme sooo many times already...
I recognized it as Brainfuck, but assumed it was going to be a fork bomb for some reason.

Uninstalling the bootloader will brick your device.
Are you sure you want to uninstall the bootloader?
