Welcome to the penguin party! 🐧

When I was creating the bootable media for install it, I downloaded the .iso and .iso.sig from any mirror that is near. I followed the things about verification of .iso but I got some errors and gave up.

There's two different things. The checksum and the GnuPG signature. If you used the GnuPG method to check the signature I can imagine you got a warning because of the GnuPG key owner trust and that's actually expected behavior and should not worry you. Normally when you exchange GnuPG keys with a person in real life, you can compare key fingerprints and after that you would set the owner trust yourself for their key, but with downloaded iso images this is a different use case though if you really want you can set the owner trust to make the warning go away.

That brings back some memories of a former US president. https://youtube.com/watch?v=Yq7FKO5DlV0

And to answer OP question :

I think most FOSS zealots simply despise capitalism in general, they want everyone else to be poor like them. Kinda like socialism.

One well known exception to your comment is Linus Torvalds. He didn't mind moving to the USA to make some good money after being a student who could afford a whopping 386! And unlike some people believe, the GPL does not restrict a programmer to make money.

Thank you.

This brings back some memories from years ago. Enlightenment was fairly popular at some point and I think the author "Rasterman" was employed at RedHat. Some Linux distribution may even have had it as the default ?

Wow.

Yes. Glyphosate was reauthorised for further ten years in the EU :(

Is MS Teams the only viable alternative ?

With etherpad-lite the default is guest mode and no protection at all (but I've seen that with plugins user accounts can be made). With Hedgedoc and Cryptpad user accounts can be made and I think with that "private" protected pads are possible.

Since you mentioned Etherpad-lite :

Framasoft did a great job on Mobilizon! Good that they go for a healthy approach and not eventually end up with burned out developers and maintainers.

Yes, indeed. After posting this I did regret it later on.

Many people probably won’t be bothered by these things, but I am. I don’t want to pay full price for something that I don’t truly own. I miss the familiarity. I miss the reliability. I miss feeling like it’s mine. Dependable. Trustworthy.

Picking my old guitar up again has never looked so appealing. I think I want to go back to investing more time, money, and energy into things that aren’t connected to the internet

Upvoted.
