The analogy doesn’t even work if we ignore the massive difference in time scale. Languages develop organically, they are not managed. Comparing a managed and developed system and a twenty year timespan to an organic language system over a five hundred year timespan is just ridiculous.

Because it is a paid OS and it’s developers are writing code for financial gain, if they are not being paid to write the code, it doesn’t get written.

They are being paid to write the code. Microsoft is just choosing which code they should write, and it doesn’t include any old devices because they want you to buy new devices.

It’s perfectly reasonable to expect compatibility, and lay blame when there isn’t any. Microsoft simply doesn’t provide it.

you can’t blame Roland or Microsoft for not supporting a 20 year old device on the latest versions of the OS.

Why not?

You can’t expect indefinite hardware support for every random little device you happen to find, this like the sound card above is on you, not Microsoft.

Why not? Linux development is mostly volunteer, and these things are easily compatible with Linux. It seems like you can absolutely expect support for every device, it’s just that Microsoft isn’t willing to provide it.

None of the above quoted examples are noob issues, this is like you are talking to a person in old english from the mideval times and being mad that a random guy in the middle of Londing in 2024 can’t understand you.

Notice that you had to exaggerate a 20 year timespan into a 500 year timespan to make this analogy work?

well you seem upset that an archaeologist suggested it was likely a woman, so something made you mad

To all the upstart website-havers: no, you probably don’t actually need to use cloudflare

as the small brewery industry developed I went from “fuck IPAs” to “hit me in the face with another pinecone please” and I’m not sorry

Maybe they know I’m not very useful?

yep - my experience is if I make a joke about biden to most democrats, the next thing out of their mouth is something about trump

Well by that logic, merely saying “I have a job” is a political statement.

I can see that you lack the intelligence to actually see that I never really said much about my own ideology,

None, just liberals willing to go along to get along with fascists. Which you are.

But while Western media has an underlying bias to shape a narrative that fits the interests of the wealthy, Chinese state media has an overt and explicit bias to push the narrative in a direction that fits the interests of the state.

Wild, when I read or watch literally any popular western media I find the bias overwhelmingly explicit and overt. It’s almost like you’re too deep in the propaganda to claim any perspective outside of it.

Maybe you’ve never been to America, but christian fascists are staggeringly common here

That’s not what you’ve done, though, is it? If you’re unable to describe your own arguments, how can you possibly hope to engage with other people?

Your position is idealist and neither rational nor good faith - don’t expect others to meet you with merits your position lacks.

have you confused the internet for a court room?
