(Their point was that Spotify’s free version is sufficient because they only want the things mentioned)

Of course it does. OP asked multiple questions, this was sipposes to answer why they used KDE instead of Gnome. I personally think Arch would have the advantage of having the newewst drivers, Proton version etc. available.

Bro, “Puritanism” is a religious movement of the 16-17th century. Maybe you mean purism?

(Serious) question: How do you stand not being able to select individual tracks? I honestly would rather listen to my music in any of the free frontend apps rather than being limited to that extent…

Honestly, what does this change? For paid users nothing, and the free version was always unusable with you not being able to individually select songs.

The US government doesn’t want an adversary government to have the data of its citizens (because of varios reasons, including mass manipulation for example). They would of course have no issue with having that data themselves though (also because then they would be more in control over how the data is handled).

But not for a foreign government (from their perspective).

It says you only have ten seconds, I doubt you could log onto another (Unix) computer in that time, open the terninal, run the man oage and then run over and enter a valid command…

Generation Z rarely uses computers and knows nothing about them, compared to other generations

I disagree. In Gen Z, there are those that use computers regularly and those that don’t. There is a larger gap between clueless and tech-savvy. But the one’s that do use a computer are genrally more tech-savvy than other generations, while the majority of other generations’ computer users are just getting by with minimal knowledge (how files are organized, some specific software like office and not much more).

Start asking people about PC components or programming (don’t count those that learned it university or at their jobs) and you will quickly realize that your best bet is gen Z.

Yeah but do you think people just drop windows and don’t move to any OS afterwards?

What part is wrong then? That’s pretty nuch what they say in the article.

11-20 = -9 10-19 = -9 -9 = -9

Fixed that for you.

A 3rd party votes subtracts one vote from Biden’s total vote count, so to say. Here is the 1M$ math equation you desire (assuming you would usually vote for Biden):

Definitions:

(I) VoteDifference = VotesTrump - VotesBiden

(II) VotesBiden1 = EveryoneElsesVotes + YourVote (Scenario where you vote for Biden)

(III) VotesBiden2 = EveryoneElsesVotes (Scenario where you vote for a 3rd party)

Calculations:

(II) VotesBiden1 = EveryoneElsesVotes + Yourvote =〉VotesBiden1 - YourVote = EveryoneElsesVotes (III) VotesBiden2 = EveryoneElsesVotes =〉VotesBiden1 - YourVote = VotesBiden2

(I) VoteDifference = VotesTrump - VotesBiden

VoteDifference1 = VotesTrump - VotesBiden1 VoteDifference2 = VotesTrump - VotesBiden2

=〉VoteDifference2 = VotesTrump - (VotesBiden1 - Yourvote) =〉VoteDifference2 = VotesTrump + YourVote - VotesBiden1 (!!!)

THUS WE CONCLUDE:

In scenario 2 (which is the one in which you vote for a 3rd party), the vote difference (which determines who won and by how much), is EQUIVALENT to one additional person voting for Trump. You’re welcome. I don’t even need the 1.000.000$.

If I understand this correctly, they are only using it to track terrorists who actively participated in a terror attack, right? What’s the big deal then…?

CVE score of heartbleed was 7.5, the score of this XZ backdoor is 10…

Yeah but the backdoor does not work on Arch (as far as we currently know). It relies on a linking of libraries that Arch doesnt do by default.

I do think it shoukd be left up to (potentially big) companies; however, we should put restrictions on e.g. ink cartrige compatibility, just like what the EU is trying for smartphones and messagin right now.

Seems that immortality thing is working though. At least since the first time he was caught un 1866.

It cost me an arm and a leg. (No, it wasn’t my arm, obviously…)

It may be essential, but not sufficient. That’s all this statement claims.
