DUMP AirBnB right away. They are kissing Trumps ass all the way. The CEO is very... very proud to be part of DOGE. Fuck them.

There we go again. Another Trump bitch trying to please the orange morron. Maybe she can share a bed with Nigel Farage.

Bluesky is the new X. After canceling the accounts of Turkish protesters this is the next step for the big money behind Bluesky. That’s why I deleted my account a few days ago.

I'm still in the fase of exploration. When using Windows, you just have 1 choice. I just want to discover what suits me best. So nothing against Linux Mint. It's great, but maybe OpenSuse is better for me? I don't know.

THANK YOU ALL for your replies. I'll do a clean install and made a backup of my files (was not difficult bc most stuff I have in the cloud). I'm moving indeed from Mint to OpenSuse Tumbleweed. I don't know exactely why, but it seems to me an interesting thing to do. Still figuring out what distro fits me best.

 

Question: I'm running Linux Mint right now. Is it possible to change distro to ... for example OpenSuse - without a clean install ?

If we want to achieve adoption by the "main stream" consumer market we have to make sure that the Linux distro is absolutely idiot-proof. In the mind of many people, Linux is for IT-nerds and it's difficult to change a way of thinking. You'll have to prove it with: 1. Reliability (f.e. support of the EU); 2. Influencers who say that Linux is OK; 3. A Linux distro that is effectively proving that it can work idiot proof. Otherwise Linux is dead on arrival to become mainstream.

In the past, Tesla lawyers even initiated lawsuits against customers who dared to criticize the quality of their cars or services. Such cases are documented and therefore not fake news. Last week, moreover, DOGE dismantled the department responsible for safety control and approval of new cars entering the market. Tesla experienced too many problems with this department in the past and now, through DOGE, took the opportunity to simply dismantle it. Moral of the story... buy a Tesla, a “safe” decision.

Is Bluesky the next X ??? Kissing the ring of authoritarian leaders?

The title is misleading. "Some Swiss companies are using the Europe label." Yes, Switzerland is part of Europe, but not part of the EU. But... you're welcome to join the EU as a full member.

It's hypocrit. They don't want to be in the EU because they are "so called neutral", but now the suddenly are using the EU logo because it suits them. Don't get me wrong: I would like to have SUI into the EU, but then they have to go for the full package and not illegaly clame they are EU, while the're not.

That's OK. You don't have to say something about my post. I just wanted to inform you all that on Lemmy there are also haters, keyboard warriors or people that are so depressed that they can't see anything positive in a post, a question or a reply.

 

I am leaving this group. Do I post with a positive message, that Europe is taking matters into its own hands and immediately get a shit load of negative comments, doomsday scenarios and conspiracy theories thrown at your head as if the European Union has a secret agenda to turn the EU into some kind of Russian or Chinese regime. No, the EU is not perfect, but neither am I, neither are you and no country, manager or company is. I thought things would be different here than on X for example, but the negativism here is not much better. I hope you continue to have fun here, but I (try to) seek more positive places.

Bye bye Visa, Mastercard, Paypal, and many others. They can go and play "America First". We'll have our own independent system by november 2025.
