GNU/Linux is simple -- if one knows how.

Check out my process list, with the network up, X11, FVWM3 window
manager, three virtual terminals, and the Pan newsreader:

PID TTY STAT TIME COMMAND
1 ? Ss 0:00 init [3]
166 ? Ss 0:00 /sbin/udevd --daemon

That's all.

First: your ps tool is either broken or its output is falsified. With
the "ax" option, it should display the threads, which would explain the
gap between the id 1 and the id 166. But that's not the reason of my
reply.

Second, and most importantly: it misses something very important. I
know, you don't care about it. But it can explain why you can't buy your
own food with Linux and need a Microsoft Windows VM to help you. Instead
of running a simple service, you prefer running a full VM with Windows.
Only a limited brainless Windows advocate like you can find it better
than a real FOSS OS.

I won't tell you which service you are missing because I said I wont
help you again. But if you don't care about security, once you are
trying to connect a web paying website, your lack of security wont help
you to be trusted. I'm not helping you because it's not a secure feature
per se, it's a normal feature which is required for security reasons.

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! Try and beat this!

Any major distro beat this: you are the only one in the world who need
to ask help from Microsoft to be able to buy your own food. A useless
computer is not better as a useful one. You can pretend otherwise as
long as you want but you wont impress anyone.

Any distro will show HUNDREDS or processes, most of which are
pure useless BLOAT.

It's not useless as long as they don't require a Microsoft Windows VM to
buy their own food. And their output isn't a broken one as your own but
a real one.

GNU/Linux can be wonderfully efficient and potent -- if one
knows how.

Yes, but you don't as you need a Microsoft Windows VM to help you buy
your own food.

And YOU don't.

I don't know about others, but I need less Microsoft Windows than you.
Which tells a lot about your lack of knowledge about Linux.

The kernel threads are filtered because they would introduce too much
clutter.

The fault is the website. No "service" can magically cure the issue.

As I have indicated previously, only certain websites cause problems.
This can be debugged but I have much better things to do than correct
the problems introduced by INCOMPETENT web developers.

Furthermore, I don't use a VM. In fact, the possibility of a VM
is disabled in my BIOS.

REAL MEN use only the bare metal. VMs are for idiot pussies, like
you.

This is just more total BULLSHIT from a total IDIOT.

If I cannot order groceries then they lose my business. I will spend
my money on sites that conform to universal standards.
