Back in the day, find required that you added "-print" to actually print out the results in the terminal. That was bad UX, and now -print is the default. But.. following some syntax like supplying path as first argument for find is necessary to not create ambiguity in some cases, and enforcing it makes it more readable imho.
OpenBSD works surprisingly well as a desktop, probably because the devs use it themselves. As long as you have supported hardware that is.
Reading bell hooks back in the day made me interested in understanding feminism. Things like the bear makes me go do other things and care less.

This is paraphrasing a swedish politician called Annie Lööf. She has been made fun of and ridiculed for that phrase for a long time.
However, that's not what she said. The context was simplifying rules and regulations for companies, and she was asked if fewer rules would make it easier for companies to do illegal things. Her answer was: "In Sweden it has since long been illegal to run a business with criminal intent, and that will continue."
This "criminal intent" is the difficult part. If I buy and sell antiques that's one thing, if I buy and sell stolen goods, that's another. The difference is criminal intent.
To be fair, iirc, macOS is certified UNIX despite having the XNU kernel which stands for X is Not UNIX.
If Debian fails in the same predictable way every time, for the same reason, it could be argued that it's very stable, just not functional :) What kind of hardware do you use by the way?
I will never buy anything with Nvidia again.
