Old Thread >>87006060

do you take computer breaks? If yes then how often?

what do we think about it?

why would robot maids have to be bipedal?
a more stable 4 legged platform would be ideal for the home environment, and a pair of "hand" appendages would be able to do the same things as a pair of arms.

I'm just curious if its a meme or if people really run into all these issues while trying Linux? As I get close to 20 years of exclusively using Linux I have not run into one tenth of the issues people cry about. Just seems like a weirdly forced corporate OS shilling.
