I mean, he seems to be hinting at that now, but he can’t really do anything else. “Whoops. Didn’t think this button I pushed would do that” is just not something he is able to say, even if it might be true. Then again it would be difficult doing something this extreme accidentally I would think.
If China stops exporting these to the US that should influence the trade deficit in the way Trump is looking for, right? Isn’t that what this was supposed to do according to Trump? So he should be happy about this, right? Because it’ll bring the manufacturing of the minerals home? /s
Good call. I have 2 hard dives and really thought that if I didn’t touch the win 11 drive it couldn’t possibly cause windows issues. Lol. Not making that mistake again.
Good for you! Nuking windows is indeed the end goal. Dual boot for me is a proof of concept as a step on the way.
I use a lot of adobe programs, like photoshop, illustrator and Lightroom. The standard MS office stuff, Dashlane for passwords and a bunch of games both via steam and the EA AppStore, some of which are windows only. Mind you, I know most if not all should work using wine (or similar) or have good alternatives. But I’d rather try first before nuking windows.
What I can mainly find about Austrialia is that that a local LGBTIQ+ organization called “Equality Australia” has released a 5 page document to warn people.
I tried setting up a dual boot Mint next to my Win 11 last night. Just so I can experiment with getting all the (replacement) programs of my Win 11 install to work on there… froze during install and was busy for hours getting my boot files for Win 11 back.
I’m not a technical genius or anything and now I’m scared to try again. I assume it’s way easier if I would just rip the bandaid off and do it in one go. Sadly too much relies on me still being able to use the computer close to the way I could before. Ah well. Another day, another chance to nuke the boot files.
I love Pixelfed specifically because of the artsy, visual inspiration. I dearly miss browsing through my instragram feed and getting incredibly inspired by seeing people create amazing and beautiful things, including using techniques and crafts I had never even heard of before.
Pixelfed is starting to kind of be that for me, but Reddit did some of that too. Some of the most niche crafts even had their own subreddits. I just want to be able to be inspired by my social media feed again - ideally without algorithms aiming to get me stuck there. And without the broligarchy threatening to take it away at any moment.
Sure, but I still suspect that we’ll get a large influx of crafters and other artists that will be visible in Lemmy directly. Still very much excited
This is absolutely perfect! The crowd I am following on Pixelfed is pretty much exactly what I am still partially missing on Lemmy. So excited about this. Thanks for sharing!
It doesn’t help that Tesla are also screwing over the people who buy them. I have heard so many horror stories of what happens when something in your Tesla breaks. Most of it sounds like purchasing a Tesla doesn’t mean that Tesla thinks you actually own that car. Lookup “Tesla right to repair” for just a taste of the mess.
Sadly so far claiming asylum in an EU country hasn’t worked yet for US trans people as far as I am aware. Also if an asylum claim is denied you will be sent back and barred from re-entry and work visas for a while. It’s not an application anyone should make lightly. Wish it were different. Maybe give it another few months and maybe they’ll stop being so worried about annoying the Cheeto and they will let beurocracy catch up with reality.
