How to make easy money without working for it?

Hi All,

just thought this was kinda scummy esp if they don’t keep the usb iso up to date.

Could give people a bad experience.

Thoughts?

true… they got good feedback must give free tech support with their usb sticks :slight_smile:

I am wondered by this one :

I have used linuxFX some years ago, I thought they would be given a big smash from M$ for copying their UI , but they are still here :upside_down_face:

We get free tech support without paying someone who isn’t even related to Garuda for their USB stick that any any of us can get for under 5 USD.

Well, I made an official complain/report at Amazon about selling an USB with Garuda Linux without agreement from the rightholder. As source I pointed right on this thread. Let’s see what Amazon will do next. But I can only point them to it, I have no legal rights about.

Odds-on for “nothing”.

I have gradually come to the conclusion,

  1. that I am too old to see the end of a lawsuit against this company.
  2. that anyone who can’t find the free, donation-funded, download link deserves nothing less than to pay for it.
  3. even bad advertising for Garuda is advertising, if third parties think that Garuda is so good that they can make money with it.

Happy Halloween and that we can soon welcome the 10 thousandth forum user.
He will get free access to all updates as long as he has an ISP that allows him to do so. :slight_smile:

It’s shabby how crooks profit from other people’s work.

There are people here who have been ripped off.

to add on your second point: who falls for it has more money than common sense.

Would be possible for you guys to sell even empty USB sticks with the garuda logo or similar things? It would encourage donations.

I agree! The point is NOT the candy. It’s the cool PEZ dispenser design.

And a recent Netflix(?) documentary suggests PEZ Europe will take and make dispenser design orders. :wink:
