Nothing actually, I was just making a stab at vegans because they get so much flak lol.

I actually think the choice to go vegan is awesome, really it's the ones that just shit on others that rubs me the wrong way, a good bit of Linux users do this as well. Personally I would never use windows unless it was absolutely necessary (I am a DJ and Producer in my freetime and I had a "pooprietary" controller that only worked with traktor, but now Mixxx has support for it so we cool now)

Even then, whenever I did have to use windows for that specific use case, I had it on a dedicated machine running an extremely stripped down version of windows (ameliorated) and it wasn't a machine that I connected to the internet.

That being said though, I seriously respect people's freedoms and even if I have different ideas or opinions than someone else, I'm not going to tell them they're wrong unless it could harm them or something like that.

That being said though, and this could just be me, I think going vegan would be more difficult than switching to Linux in today's day and age. With Linux you just need to find alternatives and integrate them into your workflow (there's layers to that of course). With veganism, you have to inspect every single product to make sure it doesn't contain animal products (which also has layers to it).

Hell with Linux, you can even use WINE to use windows programs, veganism doesn't have anything like that! You can't just wrap a cheeseburger in lettuce and call it vegan!

It's honestly pretty awesome, genuine vegans are really strong people, and although the radical ones had put a sour taste in my mouth at first, over the years as I learned the hardships of their way of life, they definitely have earned my respect!
