This is just Russian propaganda. Ukraine weren’t even close to being considered for NATO membership when the special military intervention was announced. They’ve had a border conflict with Russia since 2014 and therefore they could not join NATO.

Ukraine is defending itself. Zelenskyy said “I need bullets, not a ride” and the west simply helped Ukraine with what they actually needed. It’s completely reasonable that Ukraine can use western aid to strike military targets within Russia that threatens their sovereign territory.

That’s true, but you hardly blame any one else than the Russian government for this three-day special military operation that’s now in its third year. Allowing Ukraine to defend itself is just the right thing to do.

Yes, but windows was not designed for the application. The application was designed for windows. This is a huge difference and blame for it not running on Linux should be placed at the producers of the application, not the os. If you want to criticize an os, then do so by looking at what does and does not work in the hardware interface, not by listing applications that have been designed for particular systems.

For all I know, windows could be the worst thing ever to develop applications for, but since it’s the most popular OS, most companies targets it for development. It doesn’t make it a better os.

Or you know, the fact that the application can’t run on Linux.

Yes, but this is a design choice made by those who make the app, not a design choice made by those that make the operating system.

If I make a screwdriver that isn’t compatible with any screws on the market, that is my poor design choice, not that of screw manufacturers.

That’s not due to the operating system but rather the choice of those producing the program. The operating system simply provides an interface to the underlying hardware.

Well, as operating systems go, they both accomplish pretty much the same thing: an interface for programs so that they get access to hardware resources. One thing that Linux does is that it supports many more architectures than what windows does.

In windows, the UI is a part of the operating system so customization is a lot harder than what it is in Linux.

These are the only things that I can think of that are directly tied to the operating systems, but I’m not the most knowledgeable on these things. I honestly wonder what makes windows better as an operating system, because I can’t find anything.

What can windows as an operating system do that no other can do? Do they have magical scheduling?

Truefitt and Hill makes a fantastic aftershave balm that I find greatly reduces razor burn and ingrown hairs. For my hands I use lanolin, it’s a bit greasy but works wonders for dry hands.

It’s really common here in Sweden. “Bastuflotte” we call them and there are a couple in every lake around where I live.

Exactly. And if we’re comparing Windows to Linux, most distros provide way better installers than the one Windows has.

It could have to do with the make and model of the razor. Some have a more aggressive angle than others. There’s also the blades. Have you tried feather blades?

Oh, how lovely. More power plants where we already produce almost all power in Sweden.

I think that this is a good thing. If companies want to make money from FOSS, they also have to contribute, especially if they want to do it when using it for a closed source and proprietary product.

If you’re playing games, then latest software in terms of kernel and libraries are important. There’s a reason why valve switched to arch as a base for steamos. For my use case, I do a lot of coding in C using emacs so thing don’t really change that much. To each their own, that’s the beauty of Linux!

You can just keep the smoke in your mouth, no need to inhale it if it’s just for show.

Nope. I’ve been running Debian for the past six years after I got tired of messing with arch. I’m over my shiny new thing syndrome and am happy with old but stable software. I’ve tried some flatpaks but the only two that I use are Spotify and signal. They take a lot of space and updating is slow.

Personal data according to gdpr is data that can identify you or be tied to you as an individual. Such things are e-mail addresses, phone numbers, names and so on. Posts and comments does not necessarily fulfill this. If you post your name, yes, but this comment that I’m making now would not be classified as personal data.

Russian soldiers seem to have been complaining about shortages for some time now. Just look at how the amount of shelling has gone down. They’re sending T-55’s to the front line now. Even the Kremlin will have to acknowledge the reality at some point I guess.
