How will they buy a family owned private company? That would require the family willing to sell and that’s simply not the case 95% of the time.

The real problem is that those hidden champions can not grow further because they already dominate their small niche. Often they inhabited this position for generations already and are very conservative and don’t really innovate.

I tried to install ArchiCAD via bottles done time ago. At first I thought the DRM inhibits it but they even have native Linux support. And ArchiCAD does have a good MacOS version, too. I don’t get it…

It seems to format documents differently though. That means it scrambled a few files for a co-worker I sent it to who uses MS Office. Stuff like that never happens with LibreOffice although I like the OpenOffice UI better.

For office, there are great alternatives, imho. LibreOffice, Thunderbird, Obsidian, to name a few. What functions do you need that these don’t offer?

It all fits. The OpenAI board was hired by Altman to keep an eye on ethics. I remember that a few months ago, Microsoft fired their entire AI ethics team because they apparently kept slowing the development down (despite that being the point). Now this OpenAI drama and the involvement of Microsoft…

In my experience, gaming in Linux works even better than on Windows. Every game I installed so far was supported by proton.

The main thing holding Linux back is professional software I think. If Photoshop and the likes are supported better, a lot of people will switch and find out that they also can play games on Linux.

But I drive my car less, that should do it! /s

This is the reason we’re should focus out efforts to make a ruckus and force decision makers to enforce carbon neutrality BY NEXT YEAR instead of by next century. Of course that won’t happen but that would be the reasonable way.

I appreciate this. It does require some skill to get a good picture like this from AI so there is indeed since skill involved, too, if that matters.

Shoot POC and trans people on sight ofc. They are responsible for unemployment, crime rate and gay frogs.

Actually, that sounds quite rad!

Also, there’s GrapheneOS

Nebula is pretty awesome and the type of content is great. I miss some light entertainment content though, so the network effect is at work. Still, nebula is the only streaming platform I’d consider subscribing as their policy is great and they do provide good value.

Is there maybe a way to use this to revoke citizenship of all these CXU/AfD Fascists?

• Oil refineries
• concrete factories
• mercenaries
• energy producers that still don’t use renewables exclusively
• private hospital corporations
• cruises companies
• unsustainable agrarian producers

All of these are literally killing children. Not directly and immediately but according to the IPCC report we have 1,5 to 2 years time to get to ZERO emissions, else we got some tipping points and risk turning earth into a Venus-like planet.

Why is he not in jail then? Crimes like these shouldn’t be possible to change with a fine or whatever.

Weren’t there some huge high power sonars that could melt people to goo?

If encryption is outlawed only outlaws will use encryption. That means citizens are made much more vulnerable, business models are made mir difficult and democracy is significantly weakened. Add to what kind of people still want that - the people who will benefit from that. Corrupt despots and criminals.

I always wondered, is it still a legitimate democracy of there are only two parties?

I stopped using Macs years ago because with every update I lost more control over the computer, making even basic configurations difficult. It felt like walls closing in.

If all specialized software would work there, I’d be 100% in Linux now because it’s just the superior OS - stable, easy to use, flexible and accessible (aside from Wine).
