I currently have 8 Linux computers and none of this has been necessary on any of them. It surprises me how many people claim to have endless difficult experiences. Many distros make it all very easy these days.
And editing a config file is hardly a “brick wall”.
floofloof@lemmy.caOPto Technology@lemmy.world•Microsoft rolls Windows Recall out to the public nearly a year after announcing itEnglish1·15 hours agoUse the free Rider for home and ask any new employer for a commercial license. It’s a pretty mainstream piece of software. There’s really no reason an employer should force you to use Visual Studio.
For those times I need Microsoft tools, I keep a Windows VM handy on my Linux PC. I feel much better keeping Windows contained and mostly turned off.

They had a decade and a half of terrible right-wing government then voted for something else, but what they got was terrible centrist government and they’re frustrated. The centrists expelled all the left politicians from the Labour Party, so now the choice in England at least is Labour’s centrism-with-bigotry, incompetent Conservative, neo-fascist, another fairly directionless centrist party that appears to be led by a clown, or Green. Because people are angry, it’s likely to flip far right.

Actually, please no. But we’re headed that way.

floofloof@lemmy.caOPto News@lemmy.world•FBI arrests judge in escalation of Trump immigration enforcement effort45·2 days agoWhen ICE are kidnapping people and trafficking them to foreign concentration camps without trial, it’s a judge’s responsibility to defend the rule of law and protect people from being unconstitutionally disappeared. This is Trump’s Gestapo trying to intimidate the judiciary for taking actual action they can’t just ignore.
floofloof@lemmy.cato News@lemmy.world•Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan arrested by federal authorities at Courthouse92·2 days agoSources have told the Journal Sentinel that ICE officials arrived in Dugan’s courtroom on the morning of April 18. When they went to the chief judge’s office, Dugan directed the defendant and his attorney to a side door in the courtroom, directed them down a private hallway and into the public area on the 6th floor.
Perfectly reasonable behavior for a judge, given that the ICE Gestapo are kidnapping people and sending them to concentration camps without trial. But it’s enough to get the judge arrested by the ICE Gestapo. Trump’s regime doesn’t respect judges or the law.

Even more junk for landfill, to salvage a device that is inherently quite useless. It’s good to keep the original hardware running but it’s a shame this requires more hardware.

But there are fascists in charge of the USA right now, and they’re apparently modelling much of what they do after Mussolini and Hitler.
