Well, correct me if I’m wrong, but RedHat also had more recent updates compared to CentOS, while also being certified.

Not only that, usually lettinf people out fully and then going is is faster than getting all crammed and sruck trying to enter.

1. doing things you are not supposed to do is fun
2. thinkering with electronics in fun
3. we are sacrificing our freedom to megacorporations that continously tell us what to do, what to think, what you can and can’t do with devices we own and enshittify them. Taking back some of that freedom feels good

Linux Mint has a program simply called “Drawing” that does exactly that. You can resize pictures, draw shapes, write text, paint and save as other formats. It’s a big buggy and unoptimized, but it’s cool. For simple things, it’s sometimes more convenient than GIMP.

Laurel & Hardy vibes

The Alps are pretty freacking impressive. You see these enormous pointy rocks in the background and your brain knows how massive these mountains are. They are incredible.

Unfortunately, that is not really possible.

The UEFI standard, a pdf that describes in detail the unified system that all motherbpards use during the boot process, is 1200+ pages long. And that’s only one of the many subsystems in a modern system (that gigantic pdf tells you nothinf about PCI, about ACPI and usb, nor any other hardware peripheral). Also, since you are talking about a modern system, you also would need kernel, drivers and operating system calls documentation. All of these exist (for an open source OS like linux, and if you follow the aforementioned standards), but bundling them in a book, and keeping them uodated, would be just impossible.

Yes, it’s normal, or at least it’s not super unusual. People can be the meanest to your face and then pretend that nothing happened. Is it because they are ashamed of themselves? Because they want to pretend that nothing happened and hope you won’t bring it up? Because they want to maintain happearances in front of others? Are they trying to gaslight you? I don’t know, but it did happen to me and to other people I know.

You don’t have to cut ties with american people just because their president is an ass to the world

Bring back latin as the lingua franca

I wouldn’t be so sure. From the little I know of Greenland, the people are quite combative of their independence, as all native people are once they have been absorbed by western culture. The prime minister/governor/can’t remember the title said quite clearly that they aren’t for sale.

Also, I don’t feel like 100k/resident is really a lot of money.

Trump is offering them to be part of the North American Technate which provides an abundance of resources. Look at the map.

That’s bullshit. Trump wants Greenland’s resources for his empire. The Greenlanders will get exploited and see no benefit to these resources. They will probably lose welfare and gain police brutality.

Did any south american or african colony ever gain anything from being ‘acquired’ by european powers?

• replacement parts for appliances (dishwasher wheels, feet, brackets…) • upgrades for your 3d printer (a camera holder is a classic) • if you are a thinkerer (I’m assuming you are) custom boxes for small projects (electronics and so on)

Because 1) EU laws defend the customers a lot more and 2) US companies have already so much power and money, they can fuck over you easier, and you don’t have easier alternatives, or at least some people pretend you don’t

That feels so bad for signal integrity, especially at 5+ GT/s

I know, but many people barely know what “supported hardware even mean”, they will see the message " this computer won’t receive any more updates" and simply buy a new one.

Windows 11 refusing to install on hardware it can absolutely run on.

IP rating on smartphones so there’s seals and glue everywhere and opening them up is a fucking nightmare.

I don’t know, my experience with python is “sudo apt install python3” on linux and “download the installer on windows and run it”, I see many comments mentionting python difficilt to install but I really can’t see why

C is full of complex paradigms and low level details that are great if you’re learning computer architectures, but pretty bad if it’s your first languages.

Python in the other hand is great to learn programming practices and for quick, non-optimized, easy scripts. I think it’s less suited for more complex projects, but that’s another thing. I honestly fon’t think it’s a great language, but it’s easy to use and has pretty much a library for everything, that’s why I think it’s good to start and for simple things.

Java is also quite high level, so also good for beginners, but I’ve never used it so I don’t know how easy is to setup (python is) and how easy it is to download dependencies (on python it is).

For your case I would say Python is best.
