RegreSSHion is overblown ... it was quickly patched and it was not reliably reproducible every time. It depended on "Luck" to have pointer fall on the right memory space in order to allow the code execution.
I think Terrapin was much much worse .... and log4j ... log4j was a DISASTER ... but point taken.
I wasn't shrilling my choice of OS tho, I think eternal blue is a lot worse than those other CVEs because the NSA KNEW about it and did not disclose it, and because Windows has a much wider user base of clueless users that easily fooled.
Same boat brother ... don't let the hivemind bother you. I deal with an oracle linix at work for 8h a day, when I get home I don't want to spend time fixing my own shit ... even if it's going to be better in the long run.
I'll switch to Mint the second ricochet anti cheat has native proton support ....
Who would have guess that another overpriced solution to a non existent problem that no one wants would have been a commercial failure ....
We are in a capitalist dystopia. We could be using AI to predict energy usage and reduce our dependence on fossil fuels, or help in discovering new protein folds ... but no ... Timmy wants to look like a cool futuristic dude and he's willing to pay $600 to look cooler than his peers
