  84. I partially agree with what you said in this video. However, I do have a counterargument arguing as to why these channels should continue to exist and be watched. Every one of these types of channels has a place in the Linux/Unix/Darwin community. Those who speak about the technical and productive benefits of these operating systems only, in addition to reviewing entire distributions and more general topics, appeal to new users and those thinking of switching. They help newbies to decide their level of involvement and whether or not they wish to switch, when these people would normally not even be thinking about the FOSS community. Those who do not take sides at any costs, instead opting to explain everything in depth, appeal to users with small amounts of experience in computers, who need unbiased reviews and tutorials. Some users actually do have compelling reasons to choose proprietary software as well as their open-source equivalents, and need to know which choice is best for them. Finally, provocateurs act as countermeasures against arguments generally accepted by most people, allowing users to know why they might not make certain choices. Their videos provide compelling concerns about topics no one else argues against. Users with higher experience with computers could be attracted to some of this content, due to the fact that they posses the expertise to be able to look critically at every aspect of their device. Sure, this content can be annoying to someone who is set in their ways, but for someone who is starting out, or is still building their opinion and their workflow, or wishes to know what they are sacrificing and could gain from an alternative, these channels can be invaluable. At least, these channels are invaluable when done well; I have nothing to argue for those who create subpar content.

  503.  @Legate-Jon3s  My one problem with the K Desktop Environment, and the Plasma shell it uses, it that it relies on the Qt framework, which is very rigid when it comes to theming and customization, and thus relies on external tools which in themselves are limiting by nature. Instead of having every aspect of the framework be themable by virtue of allowing every object to be changed, Qt's theming is programmatic. Because of this, any prospective themer must either learn the language and risk framework failure, or rely on a theming engine which often provides heavy overhead and may also be very limiting in its options. QtCurve, DeKorator, Kvantum, and Aurorae are good products, but they shouldn't really be needed, and each of these engines provide limits to what a theme can do. Not to mention the notorious lag of Aurorae and QtCurve. Meanwhile, GTK+3 relies on stylesheets and styles for each possible element, with engines only supplementing the capabilities of the toolkit. The only problem is that GTK+ is designed around a gris-based layout, which is not going to prove beneficial in a future based on a vector-based display protocol. If I could have an ideal, though, it would be Qt's flexible placement, and GTK+'s easy, open theming, and all it would take is a redesign of Qt's theming system. Once they do that, I will switch to KDE, but until then, and perhaps until the KDE Foundation and the Qt Compay resolve their differences, whether or not it ends in KDE forking Qt, GTK+ is my go-to, and it is the one reason I don't use KDE.

  848. Personally I feel like there's another component here, which was essentially glossed over in this video as societal/psychosomatic. I hereby propose Supplementary Postulate 2a: The Real Component. It is a well-known fact that (Postulate 2a-i) any sort of hurtful stereotype, expectation, or assumption that gains a large following is able to gain that following because some see in it a kernel of truth, and in fact, the targets of this hateful thinking may in themselves find some modicum of the claims these judgements make. This is especially evident in cases where the "othered" group is significantly biologically different from the "main" group, to the point that it could affect behavioral patterns. This pattern of thinking has been explored in countless works of fiction and nonfiction, to the point where it is even emphasized in content which young children can understand, such as the 2001 feature film Shrek. It would therefore logically make sense that the assumption of virulence that accompanies the male form would incidentally be compounded within the mind of a man by the results of said man's personal introspection of his subconscious, as a result of the, due to our current circumstances, rightful, problematicization of heterosexual masculine thinking. Upon hearing the stories of hundreds, if not thousands or millions, of women who have had traumatic experiences with the actions of men, he may decide to, in other words, take a look inside himself, and find, lurking beneath the surface, that same potential for violence, forceful sexuality, and mindless impulse, that they know has been the cause of the trauma of billions over the centuries. Alluding to the aforementioned Shrek, the ogre will be hounded and feared by the villagers to the point where the ogre resorts to the very thing those villagers fear, in order to survive, and loathes themselves for it. It would make sense that a man, seeing in himself that little seed of truth in what others fear him to be, may in turn retreat into self-loathing and self-repression in the same way that Shrek isolates himself from society. In order to continue logically, this train of thought requires input on human internal morality and intention. However, that is not the topic being discussed as of now, and it has been explored countless times before. So in order to continue logically, I am going to assume that the overwhelming majority of humans have, at their core, some good intentions for their fellow humans, and wish the best for the people they know (that is, until some sort of stress overload causes them to abandon this notion and become a cynic). With that out of the way, assuming that most young men, at this phase in life, generally want to do good for others, knowing that they have, deep within themselves, the potential, nay, the instinct, to commit savage acts against the ones they love, in the name of perverse satisfaction, having been told this throughout their lives and also seeing it within themselves, would naturally set them to at least begin trodding along one logical path, which has one conclusion: that they are, deep down, monsters, and must keep their impulses completely repressed to keep others safe. This logical chain applies not only to sexual immorality, but, I theorize, to all preemptive assumptions which have the effect of making their target seem a danger. For instance, a man, knowing that men have the potential to easily overpower women, may see that latent physical potential in himself, and thus seek to never raise a finger. This phenomenon, which I dub the Reflective Warrant Effect, is, per my theory, the cause of the social, emotional, and physical repression, not to mention competition, redirection, and seclusion, that together make up what we know as the masculine cultural pattern. This unwritten code dictates that due to men's innate physical potential, men must never be emotional, angry, or violent, except as a last resort, in order to prevent harm to others. It then goes without saying that this repression, which many men see as necessary in order for society to function, will eventually take a toll on the repressed party's mental health, leading them to seek new means of self-gratification, backpedaling into violence and objectification. In conclusion, it is not only societal norms of masculinity which leads to the distress of young straight men, but also the real component that they see within themselves; it is not possible for this outcome to be reached with just one or the other. EDIT: This analysis may be slightly skewed by personal philosophical experience, as I may myself just be feeling guilty about my own subconscious. I don't know if it's a male thing or a teen thing but it's making me feel like I'm a danger to society please help.

  1310. To be fair, there are a few caveats to GNU/Linux or any other Unix-like OS. For instance, most distributions do not offer a way to directly access the package manager graphically, meaning you have to know the command to use for your distribution, or go through PackageKit. As well, there are points where the entire display system crashes and you have to know some commands to get back (like, say, using your sysctl program). And many of these commands have names that people wouldn't normally guess (why use cat for printing lines, or cd for goto, or nano for a text editor?). This problem also can extend to Linux's very old and extended-upon file hierarchy. Most people would probably have no idea what goes in bin, lib, var, or etc, and I'm betting tons of people would wonder why home and usr both exist at once. Most NT users would barely even know how to use their command line, since generations of graphical tools have been built to automate things. However, since Linux is at its core a hobbyist OS which has a decent shell, people don't do that much on Linux. A decent solution would probably be for a beginner distro to list basic commands on shell startup and/or if you type in 'help', since for new users there's nothing less intuitive than a blank screen, but I have yet to see any distro do that yet. Sure, DEs exist, and they work very well, but chances are people will need to use the terminal at some point, and right now that CLI has a UI which makes it seem difficult for new users.
