Its been so painfully obvious this man's been Putin's bitch since 2016, there's a reason people were suspecting Russia interfered with that election, his supporters denied it, and now that he's openly supporting all of his asslickers showing support as well and following their herd like the good obedient sheep they are.

Not saying I agree with the whole 2 terms 4 years each thing americans have let alone their political system in general, but who was actually surprised? That's what fascists do, just take Mussolini.

Ofc Trump has a fucking faith office. I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if he tried implementing biblical laws like some type of Christian version of Sharia law, or called for teaching creationism as fact in schools.

Credit cards make you in debt to the bank and your debit card balance is the bank's debt to you.

It's literally be just as simple as choosing a distro, preferably a just works one or something thats piss easy to install like Linux Mint, Fedora or OpenSuse.

Then you choose your Desktop Environment, from which you can choose either KDE Plasma, XFCE, GNOME or the new COSMIC desktop environment (still currently in beta so not recommended js yet) which you can choose when installing your distro or while choosing your distro. You can always change it once you've chosen.

KDE Plasma's infinitely customisable, yet also really user friendly, with a lot of incredible software included by default, including phone compatibility software similar to what you'll find in apple's ecosystem. XFCE's really lightweight and power efficient. GNOME's very macOS like by default, being a lot less customisable than KDE but really user friendly. They each have their own versions of software.

You should know what your distro's package manager is and how to use it, which is basically what you use to install updates and install and uninstall software. That's literally the only thing you'll need to use your terminal for, it's basically just a text based file manager which can run programs/software. That's basically it, just make sure to frequently update your system, they are voluntary unlike Windows updates and don't require reboots or crash your system, and you should be good.

Don't have a CC, debt is a trap don't fall for it. I'm a monero maximalist.

Dis ain't even a shower thought bro, icl I'd rather leave politics out of some communities, but 100% I agree. So many people looked past his politics and js looked at his skin colour instead. America's a 2-party illegitimate oligarchical corrupt shithole anyways, a fake democracy ruled by 2 parties with largely the same interests at heart. A land in which both communists and fascists manage to coexist, 2 of the most cancerous groups of people to ever exist.

He committed and covered up hundreds of war crimes in the Middle East and other countries, declared Linux users terrorists, Snowden, Assange etc. like with Trump the list is too long.

🤣🤣🤣 I don't remember hearing anyone say "murder is horrible" in response to Ted Bundy's execution, what goes around comes around innit.

Fr tho, people forget jokes exist sometimes, I obviously don't wish rape on anyone, besides the whole dropping the soap thing's a myth anyways.

They're arguing that as if they're not doing that exact thing themselves, as if they ain't silencing their critics. Worst part is he's disguising himself as a libertarian and someone who's pro free-speech, when his ideas of libertarianism only extend to his govt. and cronies and his ideas of freedom of speech extend to his own views and his own supporters. He's using the guise of being censored himself to censor literally anyone who opposes him.

In comparison with the US democrats they are.

Well as always, if he's guilty may he have fun rotting in jail and hopefully drops the soap, if he's innocent I hope he bounces back from such life ruining accusations.

He was charged, not found guilty yet, a charge doesn't automatically mean you're guilty. You should wait for criminal proceedings to end before declaring he did it. So many people are quick to presume the guilt or innocence of people who were charged before they're even convicted.

Musk has been a fraud since day 1, I can't believe it took him fully becoming a full oligarch for everyone to hop off his dick.

Once he sees not everyone will he'll start censoring those who don't. He's fixated on getting things done his way regardless of how it affects anyone else.

Regardless of what you or anyone has on your phone that is, in any context dystopian and authoritarian asf, there's already been cases of people being detained by US border authorities for anything anti-govt. found on their devices. It's like Trump read 1984 and thought it was an instruction manual.

Worst part is he's disguising himself as a libertarian and someone who's pro free-speech, when his ideas of libertarianism only extend to his govt. and cronies and his ideas of freedom of speech extend to his own views and his own supporters.

On another note, for those who don't care abt using free software, or don't care about privacy cuz they have "nothing to hide". Think about how much power the US govt. has over data collecting corps. like Microsoft, Google and apple, now think abt how much power a man like Trump can give himself over the US govt. How much control do u rlly have over your own devices? If there's no way to truly, freely express yourself without govt. interference then there is no democracy.

Best thing to do is just avoid the states all together, I've done it my whole life and am continuing doing so.

I agree with all the Linux comments but another thing you could do is use FOSS self-hostable front-ends to those proprietary services like invidious and newpipe (android) for youtube, redlib for reddit, nitter for twitter etc. You don't have to host them yourself, there's already plenty of people hosting their own instances.

Aside from removing ads which you can already do with an adblocker (which takes 1 revenue stream away from them) it lets you browse privately without any data collection which would be sold to advertisers (taking away their 2nd revenue stream) plus it frees you from the clutches of the algorithm, it helped stopping my ADHD from leaving me 2 binge yt vids for hours on end.

Majority of AAA games run invasive software like kernel-level anticheat, I'd personally recommend js buying him a PS5 or running them in VMs (Linux or windows).

"Free speech absolutist" 🤣🤣🤣

Frameworks are the best modern laptop by far imo.
