Individuals should certainly follow that advice. Unelected bureaucrats shaping domestic industry with their extra-legislative regulatory power should not.
The FCC exists solely to serve American interests - nobody else's. There is an enormous problem with unelected government officials flagrantly ignoring either the constitution or the will of the people - often both - in the United States. Coming to an anonymous international forum for advice on exercising regulatory power which arguably shouldn't exist in the first place is a spit in the face to every person that this bureaucrat is meant to serve.
It is extremely disheartening to see one of our many bureaucrats come to an anoymous international forum for input on an American domestic policy issue. A domestic policy issue that should be exclusively taken care of by the elected legislature rather than an unelected bureaucracy.
I hope that all of the comments in this thread are fully discarded by all who hold actual power at the FCC; the opinions of the international community are not relevant.
It seems very obvious to me that a 99% satisfaction rating for an electronics product is extremely unlikely, even given the factors that you noted. Not impossible like the other poster is indicating, obviously it's impossible to prove that claim, but very unlikely.
If you reflect on it and genuinely believe that 99% seems realistic and even "very likely", well, we'll have to agree to disagree.
These two municipalities may have similar populations, but this statement is not really fair. Evansville is the only major population center for anyone within a ~75-100 miles from it in most directions. It is absolutely a rural "city"; businesses in Evansville have a significant number of their employees commuting from ~500-5000 person towns in Southern Illinois, Western Kentucky, and Southwestern Indiana.
It is significantly more rural than Santa Barbara and I can't imagine comparing the two locations unless you have never visited the American Midwest.
The person you're responding to is responding to a comment asking what is missing from Podman Desktop it to replace Docker Desktop. It is missing nothing for them per their message.
While I agree with the general gist of what you're trying to communicate, the person you're responding here did no such thing. Take a step back and re-read; they're just following what you're suggesting to one possible natural conclusion. If you don't believe that's what would happen, you can state that without accusing your partner in this conversation of "reading too deep".
What's the source on that quote? I searched it and this thread is the only result.
Edit: I found the context around it, at least. Seems perfectly reasonable. [1]
"Recently Inc published an interview in which I said we'd noticed a correlation between founders having very strong foreign accents and their companies doing badly.
Some interpreted this statement as xenophobic, or even racist—as if I'd said that having a foreign accent at all was a problem.
But that's not what I said, or what I think. No one in Silicon Valley would think that. A lot of the most successful founders here speak with accents.
The case I was talking about is when founders have accents so strong that people can't understand what they're saying. I.e. the problem is not the cultural signal accents send, but the practical difficulty of getting a startup off the ground when people can't understand you."
They all use Delta Chat. I self-hosted a non-federated Matrix server for ~3 years, but once I found Delta Chat (a little over a year ago) I asked everyone to transition over to using it to stay in contact with me. About 15 people in total, I haven't heard any complaints and it works great.
