Oh please, don’t start this Nazi narrative. I’m far from a supporter of this government but it being a Nazi government is a bit too far from reality.

How is this even possible? Does Musk just gets to do whatever he want without any questions? Why don’t the us. Marshals just deny such insane requests?

Yes but will they? The story so far doesn’t seem to point in that direction.

And, I forget the source, voicing your opinions online has shown to be quite useless in terms of making actual change. Will try to find the source if needed.

We use OG version at our school but will introduce this instead. I try to implement use of foss where possible in my teaching. S little unrelated but very good CAD alternatives to fusion 360 that has a similar “easy” GUI? Blender is ok but not really a CAD tool.

Not the first nor the last time Burr has made similar comments on the billionaires place in American politics. He is right though.

Yes, thought the same but have a quick look at this: https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=en&user=WLN3QrAAAAAJ&view_op=list_works&sortby=pubdate Seems about right? But yeah, must be advising lots of students or something. He is rarely the first, second or even third author on the papers.

I have the same experience as the author you just replied to. While some of what you are saying is true, I have never had everyday issues like these on windows. I switch to Linux once a year to change things up. Mint, arch, Debian… A few major issues I experience

• login screen just freezes after standby
• wifi not automatically recognizing what settings e.g. security protocol my work wifi uses
• external monitors not working
• updates just breaking my whole OS or not working

These are essentials, not something I can simply learn to live with or fix on the fly.

Would love to switch! I can get through work without proprietary software so that’s not the issue.

LinuxMint

• Stop crashing when I log in after standby
• Weird graphical glitches
• The WiFi manager. Trying to connect to work WiFi but I then have to fill in info on certificates, protocols and what not. Stuff I don’t understand, don’t experience on Mac/windows and don’t want to know about.
• At least try to make an interesting package manager/store. How about some screenshots and icons?

Yeh and apparently Lemmy folks down votes legit bad experiences with gnu/Linux. If you think the user is the problem here, this community seriously have a problem if thet want gnu/Linux to be mainstream.

Installs mint. Connects to wifi at work. Prompted with a window that wants me to specify certificate versions or whatever. No clue about what any of it means and never get to connect. Uninstalled and back to Windows. Mint so easy to use /s 👍

Probably not though. Common people don’t understand Internet. Nor does politicians or journalists. What else is on Twitter? Advertisements?

Well, only way to solve this is by having people here who aren’t idiots (whatever that means to you) to participate and make things better. But this is too hard for most people, I guess.
