WasteWizard@lemmy.worldto Buy European@feddit.uk•Microsoft's getting cold feet and is now 'pledging' its new commitment to Europe2·3 days agoYeah… no. Commitment ends at the tip of a pen signing a new executive order.
WasteWizard@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•U.S. declares military zone around El Paso, allowing soldiers to arrest migrants78·3 days agoNever forget this: Everyone participating and ‘just following orders’ is also responsible, from the highest bureaucrats and generals to the lowest public servants and soldiers. Couldn’t have a death camp without everyone greenlighting and then Private John Doe following orders and building it.
Good fucking luck, USA. And may god have mercy on your souls.
WasteWizard@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•MAGA’s era of ‘soft eugenics’: let the weak get sick, help the clever breed23·6 days agoThey don’t need them anymore. Every future election will be fixed.

WasteWizard@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump Orders Hegseth, Bondi to Send Military Assets to State, Local Police 'to Prevent Crime' in Latest Executive Order56·10 days agoAlso straight, healthy and neurotypical.
WasteWizard@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•ICE deports Venezuelan teen despite reportedly knowing he was not a target9·25 days agoThe US is not a member of the Rome Statute, nor the ICJ. They’ve openly threatened those institutions with sanctions if they go after them or their citizens.
The ICJ/ICC are only for the powerless, fallen, disgraced. The big players just don’t follow those institutions’ orders, at best cherry-pick what to follow.
I’d say I’m well aware how this works.
WasteWizard@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•ICE deports Venezuelan teen despite reportedly knowing he was not a target6·25 days agoOf course, the situations are different. Nazi Germany had to be broken and the trials were conducted locally by the winners. Can’t just abduct high ranking military/politicians of foreign nations, that would set a bad precedent, and probably only work just exactly once. That’s why no-one is really giddy to arrest Putin or any of his boot lickers, too much unpredictable fallout, probably literal fallout.
WasteWizard@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•ICE deports Venezuelan teen despite reportedly knowing he was not a target37·25 days agoJust following orders… the Concentration Camp guards all said the same during the Nuremberg trials. Most of them got hanged. Just FYI.
WasteWizard@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Trump administration says it is not required to help wrongly deported man return to US12·26 days agoWe’ll see what happens when their weakest start dying by the scores because Medicaid and social security are gone. If that and the concentration camps won’t do it, what will? For now it looks like they might become a subdued peasant folk like the Russians. Their protests and political actions won’t do anything because there is no-one listening to it, and more extreme opinions are nipped in the bud by aggressive censorship on all types of media.
WasteWizard@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux?English1·1 month agoThanks, that was some great insight. Especially the drawbacks regarding cinnamon. Those are 100% things no normal user should ever have to think or worry about.
WasteWizard@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux?English3·1 month agoAlso it’s soooo easy for someone not very knowledgeable to misconfigure the boot loader. Don’t touch boot loaders unless you’re okay with potentially losing access to both your original OS and the new Linux install. You’d then have to either learn on the go and repair it yourself, or beg/pay someone else to repair it.
WasteWizard@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux?English16·1 month agoAlready prepared everything for the jump. Switched MS Office for LibreOffice, and Outlook for Betterbird. Tested install, configuration and access to backups in a VM. Next vacation I take I’ll go for it. Mint is my choice of Distro, because of Steam/Gaming reasons. With the US being antagonistic, if not outright hostile, right now, and Microsoft having their disgusting Copilot AI Analysis Fingers in everything, it’s the rational choice I think.

WasteWizard@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Musk immediately calls for judges to be impeached after DOGE rulings51·2 months agoHe was already pissed when they built the Tesla plant in Germany. Strong unions and worker rights and environmental protections. All the things he so heavily dislikes, the Muppet.
WasteWizard@lemmy.worldto Buy European@feddit.uk•People who joined Lemmy in the last few days thanks to posts on /r/buyfromEU, how are you doing?1·2 months agoSwitched to LibreOffice, and Betterbird for Mail. Works well so far. Using Vivaldi as a browser, that’s a European project but with a modified Chrome core as far as I understand, the built-in AdBlocker works fine in combination with NoScript, even on mobile. Trying out Linux Mint so I can switch the OS when Windows 10 loses support later this year.
I liked freetube very much because I could export all subs to newpipe on my android. Adblock is a bit iffy on android browsers in my opinion, and newpipe works and looks a treat. Then youtube broke freetube. After about a week of it not working I stopped looking for an update and went back to browser+adblock on pc.
Sorry, freetube devs. Still appreciate you <3
