I am brave enough to say it: The ocean has water in it.

Praise me for my braveness.

    I get the sentiment but the article is more targeted at the PC gaming crowd that isn't exactly tech-illiterate but probably only knows Linux from memes about it requiring you to recompile a kernel to install Chrome or some other BS like that

    I think a good portion of Lemmy and the fediverse already know it's been at this level for a long while now but I'm excited to see articles like this since it means the tide is turning against Windows for the average user

    Yeah just look at the article's comment section (not recommended). Still full of ignorant misinformation. Borderline disinformation IMO.

    I heard somewhere that by the time the scientific community officially announces life on mars the rest of us will have already concluded that there is life on mars. I feel like this is the same thing.

    The problem is there's a large difference between the 50% the average person needs and the 99.9% the scientific community needs. It's just a different level of proof they're looking for.
