  • He wanted to be popular with the regular, poor people. He was throwing money left and right but always denied where his wealth came from. He wanted to come across as a self-made, honest man. Some believed it, or just weren’t willing to accept the atrocities he was capable of. He was overthrowing the government, blaming it for everything that was bad in Colombia, and wanted to appear as a savior, hence the contrast he was creating by wearing simple outfits in certain public appearances. But he did also wear suits and shirts that were considered tasteful and fashionable at the time.






  • There are websites detecting adblockers that instruct you to disable them in order to view the website. It’s a constant game of cat and mouse between ad companies and adblockers.

    And I would like to not watch and hear 3 x 10 seconds unskippable ads when one of my parents wants to show me some 30 seconds funny cat fails clip on their phone.





  • It was a default for so long that people just got used to the feel of it and its “ecosystem” if you can call it that.

    I use Win at home and at work as my main desktop, because of familiarity, the apps I got used to and because I just don’t feel comfortable with any Linux UI. I get annoyed when the Win UI gets even slightly changed between OS versions, so imagine how it would be for me just switching to Linux. I have a dual boot, but the Linux partitions always gather dust no matter the distro.

    But I wouldn’t touch a Windows server. I’m apt with the Linux on work servers, my home server, RaspberryPi and routers. It feeels like having swiss army knives and I feel at home in a command line.

    This doesn’t make me a fanboy, but I do get raised eyebrows from co-workers.
