  • None of the “attacks” you cried “ad-hominem” over were aimed at you personally; a requirement of an ad-hominem attack. Every criticism has been directed at an argument you made. That’s NOT ad-hominem.

    Calling an argument “stupid” isn’t ad-hominem.
    Asking if the subject of your post is “that Nazi guy” isn’t ad-hominem.

    Now if someone had said “Msikoivt is wrong because he smells funny”, that would be ad-hominem. But no one is saying that.











  • Yep! They should be terrified. I was still keeping a laptop around with Windows on it to run Vectric Aspire (CNC design software) because I couldn’t get it to run on Linux. Proprietary software like that is the anchor keeping many people on Windows. Just last week a new version of Wine was released that runs it perfectly. I now have zero reason to keep any Windows computers around. Wine and Proton are advancing so fast that soon they will run Windows software better than Windows (they already do in a few cases).
