Denmark Switches from Microsoft to LibreOffice and Linux

Jump

  • A step in the fight direction is what we should take out from this.

    Its great news even though it's not the whole country. Which would be insane to do all at once.

    Jump

  • How did we expect it to start. Of course one ministry should switch at a time to get the best transition possible.

    Switching all infrastructure at once would be insane.

  • Strike first, wait for respons, call it an act of terror, and there we goooo.

    Just like Iraq.

  • Could also be unpublished because the method was absolutly inhumane.

    • The EU smartphone repairability law will take effect on 20 June

  • EU actual laws vs headlines about non excisting laws. Refering to other threads.

    Great for consumers once again.

  • Fuck Musk and all, but how the hell is this c/technology

    • Iran asks its people to delete WhatsApp

  • Meta is also literally developing AI war machines for the US. That also runs on said data from WhatsApp.

    • climate.gov will stop publishing new content on July 1, after Trump administration eliminates entire staff.

  • The idea was stupid and easy to get through. That's how Taco Trump rolls.

  • Didnt anyway. That's why we call it 'believe'.

    • 'We're done with Teams': German state hits uninstall on Microsoft

    Jump

  • Linux is great for government work.

    They dont need compatibility as much. They have their systems only they use, therefore they can easily make them on Linux or emulate.

    Otherwise they need a office suite like Libre.

    And there's money to save. Benefits the whole country.

    • The female TikTokers silenced through murder: Women influencers around the world are killed for simply speaking online

    Jump

  • There are women who get killed for speaking up, but the latest one the article also admits is probably not one of them.

    A 22-year-old man has confessed to killing her after she allegedly rejected him romantically.

    And that is a much larger issue with many more killings than the influencer one. We need to look at that more.

    • Why Denmark is dumping Microsoft Office and Windows for LibreOffice and Linux

    Jump

  • Im Danish and had no clue about this, even though Im rather interested in open source.

    Thanks for sharing.

  • Article says they also switch to Linux, which is kind of an even bigger deal!

    • The Current System of Online Advertising has Been Ruled Illegal by The Belgian Court of Appeal. Advertising itself is Still Allowed, but not in a Way That Secretly Tracks Everyone’s Behavior.

    Jump

  • If these laws came into place, you would ofc create a grace periode, resulting in løser punishments.

    It will give corps a window to really check wtf they are doing, and take it seriously.

  • Then maybe dont do anything illegal???

    You have to activly track someone, it doesnt just "happen".

    • Power-Hungry Data Centers Are Warming Homes in Nordic Countries

    Jump

  • This is also a thing in Denmark.

    It's required by law to even build a data center.

    • UK car crash expert says cars sold in Europe are so much safer than in the U.S.

    Jump

  • Sounds like it's both.

    But the reason I think this means alot in favour of regulations, is that in EU over the last 30 years, death rates have dropped in almost every single country. In Portugal it was 80%.

    Europe didnt change car size in that periode, but they did get much better safety standards.

    Here's the source: https://ourworldindata.org/data-insights/portugals-roads-have-become-much-safer-over-the-last-thirty-years

    It also says other measures did take place in Portugal, but it's an universal change in Europe, safety being the key factor.

  • Yeah, sure. Go complain about your life in the EU. Must be awful.

    Maybe go outside and enjoy your privileged life in Europe.
