  • If you count Android too, then this: I got my first Android phone when I was 10 or 11 and rooted it on the first day of having it. This was during a time when we were all still using ClockworkMod because TWRP didn’t exist yet, and I somehow ended up with a system without a kernel. Panic ensued, and I spent that entire night (like 10 hours) digging through xda in order to find a tutorial on how to get this damn phone to run again. Imagine having to tell your parents “I broke my phone I got yesterday.” I did get it working at like 6:30 AM. Fun times.



  • That’s why so few people yarrr music. It’s pretty much accessible everywhere, on different platforms, for reasonable prices, with mostly good UIs. I mean, there’s always that person who has 10+ TB of FLAC files on their server and good for them but most people just pay the [equivalent of 10 USD] per month (or less on a family plan) to get access to everything at a reasonable quality (I mean, you get 1400 Kbit/s FLACs with Deezer Premium). As other people here have said, it’s always an access and convenience thing.



  • Unfortunately not possible for me. I daily Arch (btw) and hadn’t booted into Windows for months and months until my university professor came along and said “btw, we’re gonna build GUIs using Microsoft Foundation Classes in Visual Studio now, and yes, you have to use Visual Studio on Windows in the exam”. So nope, not uninstalling Windows.
