Yeah there was a probably a nicer way to do what they are doing

I understand the worry that this is coup

but if you choose to believe

Seeing as there is nothing I can do about it

I empathize with the sentiment, but you’re delusional.

Ah, I’ve only seen it done by referendum because parliament / congress had been dissolved by then. But hey, YMMV

It’s a coup. They are currently rewriting the rules of how things are done.

The way things are going, the next “vote” you’ll get is to ratify the new and improved constitution. I’ve actually seen a couple of coups first hand, that’s usually how it goes.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s terrible that they were granted access to very sensitive information (government contracts, employee data, probably tax returns last I heard) with no oversight. That’s gone, no way back.

But make no mistake, this is not a heist. It’s a coup. They are seizing control of meta-infrastructures of the government: payroll, contracts, payments, communications, software. This is how you hold a country hostage.

Wie immer gilt das genaue Gegenteil von dem was dieser peinliche Mensch von sich gibt: Vier Prozent für die FDP wäre das allerbeste Ergebnis

Yeah that treeline is sus for the Himalayas

Germans itt: NEIN We ARE NOT LAZY

That’s not mt everest but the matterhorn, confirmed shitpost

From the article:

This would make DOGE a Presidential Records Act entity, meaning records it creates are not FOIAble until years after a president leaves office rather than a Federal Records Act entity, which would make its records FOIAble now.

Should really be prefaced by: Don’t bring your phone. Write the phone number you plan to call if arrested on your lower arm in sharpie. If for some reason you have to bring your phone, read the following.

Weintrauben ohne Kerne, dafür günstiger

Hm, das ist doch für die meisten Straftaten so?

Ich beobachte ständig, dass Autofahrer*innen im Straßenverkehr auf ihr Handy schauen. Das können auch mehrere Zeug*innen beobachten oder Polizeibeamte. Das Problem ist mMn nicht die geringe Beweisbarkeit, sondern dass es wie ein Kavaliersdelikt behandelt wird.

Ist auch ein Generationenkonflikt, gerade deshalb ist die Eintrittswelle von (ich nehme jetzt einfach mal an) jüngeren Leuten ziemlich interessant und stimmt mich persönlich verhalten hoffnungsvoll für zukünftige Positionen der Partei.

This! It’s just the name of the software, not sure why everyone’s getting so worked up about it.

I think it’s a brilliant use case for federation, hope this sees some adoption!

Fair, whatever works for you!

Although from experience, most long-time Linux users have “started over” in different distros a couple of times. It’s not as daunting as one might think, and it’s also a decent learning experience to really understand how distros differ and (maybe more importantly), how they don’t

Yes, specificially hardware missing the prerequisites for Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0 iirc.

I think stability and a clean architecture are underrated qualities for “noob friendly” distros, while badly emulating windows is overrated. I also think you should give Fedora (plus rpm-fusion for non-free drivers and codecs) a try, it’s worth it!
