Well, if you prentend iterm does not exist, you can probably still use a mac to browse the web.

You mean Word, Excel, and so on…

Bulgaria, Hungary, Kosovo are European contries

Your logic is sound, but Bending Spoon is not know to care about value. If Vimeo owns any infrastructure, they’ll sell at it at ebay.

You don’t have to switch if you like what you found. Some people distro hop, some stay on the same one their whole life.

Too answer your question: Keeping your data is not hard and you should have a backup. Keeping your configuration/customization is a different story; if you don’t like the defaults, the tweaking is practically lost when you swap distros or DEs.

Too address the elefant in the room: Those beginner-friendly distros (e.g. Mint, Ubuntu, …) that you “start with” are actual full-fledged Linux distros under the hood. They usually try to create a UI that’s easier to navigate for someone switching from Windows (rarely from mac) and have a friendly community. They are opionated on some design choices but otherwise 99% identical to the underlying generic purpose distro.

Ubuntu is based on Debian. Mint is based on Ubuntu. Most Everything build for Debian will also work on Ubuntu or Mint. If you like Mint and it works on your hardware, there’s no objective need to switch to Debian (or Arch or Gentoo) ever. People switch as a learning exercise or for bragging rights.

The main purpose of trying different distro is to find your style. Experts could probably configure Debian to look and behave just like Mint, but it’s easier and more consistent if you get it all of the box.

I could live on 50% my salary now – after building my retirement funds. I’m probably a lot older than you are. I’m not married. In Germany if this matters.

Progressive taxation and health insurance costs help a lot. You’ll earn half the brutto, but the interesting question is the netto. You can run your numbers here: https://www.brutto-netto-rechner.info/teilzeit.php (in German)

1400 net can be a perfectly liveable depending on location / housing cost, but you need to think about retirement savings!

Before 1956?

Have you recently vibe editted a Microsoft Copilot Excel Sheet on your AI PC (but actually in the cloud)?

This may be the strategy. 90% of all business users use copilot daily (after we renamed their coffeemachine and the kitchen sink to copilot)

Real people, live!

Unlike other countries’ health care systems where it’s cash or credit card.

Third-party email clients would work if not blocked for employers configuration.

Teams works on Linux and i think OneDrive is technically webdav. I avoid mixing Microsoft and Linux, but i believe the modern (web) applications should work everywhere.

Not sure about the devs, but Salesforce’s sales force is in it. Shove Salesforce into any company (usually through incompetent employees on the buyer side), recommend motivated Junior consultants to set it up. Then require more consultants and more senior consultants to operate and fix it. Until everyone hates Salesforce.

That’s speciest.

What would the countries be supposed to do? Let’s ignore politics. I’m a small law-abiding country, I’m a member of the ICC. Let’s also assume that I’m aware of the warrant and have knowledge about the flight path and the passengers.

Now what? Shall I politely ask them to land in The Hague? Should I use force? Risk starting a war?

The only realistic option I see is to diplomatically request to use a different route. Or maybe make it so that I can pretend I was not informed.

Not sure i would call this drama, but I’m still confused.

I’m on version v1.30.0.2 of Syncthing-Fork from f-droid and i have disabled updates for now. I need a reliable source and preferably no battery issues.

This description of AI songs could be a lament about most pop music: formulaic, sweet, generic, produced in a studio to sound perfect, not human. Works on radio or Spotify, but not so much for a live audience.

Sure, that’s hard to detect. AI reproduces what we’ve been exposed to for decades.

You can create a VPN through HTTPS. Bad idea performance-wise, but it’s harder to detect.

It’s a nice palace. The deal seems fair
