  • So you set individual preferences accepting certain pros and cons.

    The claim “doesn’t work as a replacement” hence only is inside your criteria.

    Regarding the “social live”, lets be real there is hardly anything social about Instagram aside from forwarding memes to your friends, which you can do in any messenger app. Regarding mail providers, the medium ones are not affected by the distrusting problems. Regarding office, you can switch for anything outside the office. I also have to use MS at work. At home i run LibreOffice and don’t pay any more money to MS. Same for searches, where i definitely use search engines more at home than at work. But even at work you can get reliable results from other search engines.

    Lets be real, how often do your searches end up being a shortcut to the specific page on the same half a dozen websites? You are a programmer? Chance is most of your search results you click will be stackoverflow, w3school or similar. Most people will have Wikipedia articles among the top 5 they click on after searching. Just going to wikipedia directly is perfectly viable.

    Honestly not much changed for me. I wasnt interested in travelling to the US. I am not interested in buying or selling product in the US.

    However i wake up every morning to yet another stream of people being brutally murdered by the US or with US support through US allies. My country keeps hosting a drone relay station integral to US murder programs in the Middle East and everyone in politics pretends this to be okay and the US soldiers stationed here to be totally for our safety and as not being quasi occupied and serving as a logistics hub for invasions, mass murder and genocide.

    Another issue i care about is child rapists not getting away with their crimes. Turns out the US administrations of two Republicans and two Democrats have been covering up a child rapist ring involving thousands of victims and probably as many perpetraitors, with a former D and a current R president among the rapists.

    My country is quasi occupied by a natiom of child rapists and there is reason to believe they rape here too, as the US soldiers are knowm for that.

    I used to run SUSE on a laptop i only used once every three years or so. Because of the “full open source” principle i couldn’t run a lot of online Videos because the codecs were free but proprietary. When i decided to get a new computer as my tower was getting 15, i wanted to switch to a Linux distro as my daily system. Bought a laptop without windows preinstalled and decided to roll with Manjaro as it has KDE and was recommended as suitable for gaming.

    Works fine for the most part. The last wave of updates caused some fuss with the desktop, but i can just do everything important from the terminal, while waiting for the next release.

    The fact that saying $4k net per month on the side is “not good” and “does it to survive” is showing what a failed and depraved country the US is.

    There is 60 countries in the world, where the annual GDP per capita is lower than that, and only 20 countries in the world, where the GDP per capita is higher, if we multiply the $4k by 12.

    If we assume this to be taxed, then only the tax havens are above that and that is certainly not going to reach most of the people living in these tax havens.
