Not the same at all though.

It is a bit funny that the EU/Australian trade deal is much better than whatever thing the UK/Australia trade deal was.

Problem is that in dictatorships it doesn’t really matter what the population thinks about government policy.

Unless you run into particular bios issues like csm and hd formats. It took quite a while and lot of research before I was even able to begin installation, because every distro I tried just hung even before it initiated the process of installing.

Why are you going on about legalism, as if the US has a functioning legislative and judicial system? It is obviously broken to the core and the constitution or voting doesn’t matter in the slightest.

Who are the people who are going to invoke that 25th amendment on Trump?

The update and driver problem is just one side of the multifacetted windows 11 problems though. The ads, spyware and AI (which is definitely going to get more invasive when they stop supporting windows 10 and they know they have a captive audience) is another great reason to abandon that OS.

Again, complete bull-fucking-shit.

Made the switch during Christmas to Cachyos. I am extremely glad I did, and so relieved to finally be free of Microsofts clammy grasp.

I already stopped playing online competitive games long ago, so the anti-cheat thing isn’t really a problem for me. All the games I want to play works fine, even better in fact than they did on Windows.

The car would still be taken away.

Texans have a God-given right

Theocracy confirmed.

Because they know that that is really what he is. Everyone has him figured out now. That is why NATO and EU brownnoses him in front of journalists, or why Qatar “gifts” him an airplane.

Dehumanisation succesful.

People should read up on the leadership conflict currently going on at the Library of Congress.

On May 8, 2025, two days after Hayden had given testimony to the Senate Committee on Appropriations and the Committee on House Administration,[80][81] via email and without any explanation, she was abruptly fired by President Trump … No replacement of Hayden has been nominated. Principal Deputy Librarian Robert Newlen,[86] who would have served as interim librarian was fired and Trump named Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche as acting librarian of Congress and later fired the deputy librarian and copyright office director (Perlmutter and Newlen), appointing senior DOJ officials Brian Nieves and Paul Perkins as respectively, for the interim. This has been interpreted as an attack on the separation of powers.[87] Perlmutter has sued to dispute the legality of the dismissal,[88] as the Register is appointed by, and responsible to, the Librarian of Congress.

So currently there are two conflicting acting directors of LOC. One, who is a lawyer, appointed by Trump, whom noone at LOC accepts, and one librarian, who does the actual day to day administration.

It is curious that the article doesn’t mention who is speaking for the LOC, they are just twitter messages by the LOC account. I bet that while the Trump sycophant has no power over any of the librarians in LOC, he is in control of the LOC twitter account and the website, with some external techbros doing his bidding, and that is all he has to play with, yet unsurprisingly enough still managed to turn everything into shit just with those slivers of control.

The actual staff of the LOC are just doing their library thing (their youtube channel has been very active lately with some knowledgeable and interesting stuff), while this piece of shit is busy doing his Trump shit.

One should think there were no more US state secrets left for him to hand to Putin. But I guess there must be some.

Trump doesn’t want the US to be treated fair, at best you would have to be extremely naive to believe that nonsense claim by Trump. The US was already treated more than fairly. Trump destroys all previous foreign relationships the US had in favour of a malfunctioning bully method where he wants it all (but in reality it results in him getting nothing).

In short he is applying the bully method of his failed career as a businessman to the US, where it is even less effective.

On the contrary its gonna get a whole lot worse, since this Musk administration completely demolished everything

The Republicans will be all too busy backstabbing each other for the foreseeable future in such a scenario. Trump is in the position he is in now because a majority of GOP voters have a stupid fucking cultish worship of him and nobody else. They tried pushing for other less erratic GOP candidates, but they had managed to brainwash their moronic voters so effectively that they are no longer capable of worshipping anyone else but Trump.

As soon as he is gone, it is going to be a free-for-all among the Republicans, an absolute clusterfuck of a fight to become the next Trump and Vance is not going to be even remotely close to being a candidate for that. He is Trumps pick because he is a spineless vapid non-entity with even less brains than Trump himself. He will not be in a position to do much except getting betrayed by his own party for the rest of the term.

I guess those voters gave no fucks about either Palestinians or Ukrainians, considering both of those genocides have gotten worse under Trump.

Yeah, a Trump never pays his bills, so why would he start paying other people’s bills?
