  • Not even sure there is that much will on politicians side. I hope there is, but they are mostly ignorant (judging from politicians in my country) and wouldn't distinguish between Word and Windows. They might be interested if there are elections and public pushes for it. But once elected then it's another song based on US stick and carrot. Mostly sticks from this administration. But I really do hope we start to move and now is the best time possible. Also recently there was data that German Federal Administration is paying Microsoft something like:

     
        
    2023: 274.091.361,75 Euro
    2024: 347.665.579,71 Euro
    2025: 481.369.660,77 Euro
    
      

    The trend is not encouraging, isn't it, and those are insane numbers - imagine what could we have for that amount with OSS. There is another neglected area - computer education in elementary school is practically non-existent and tiny-existent in middle school in my country while MS is subsidizing software for government and specially education sector. And so the circle of is closed.

  • Is it, though?

  • Request comes from masked cowards

  • If he was corrupt then that's even worse than Russians

  • So we are doomed you are saying...

  • Again, where is this correlation coming from?

  • Where do you get correlation between father's age and autism from?

  • Dare I ask how come we don't see them?

    • in the clean coal dust
  • And people starving

  • I see how it can create problems for some, but OTOH I also don't want some bureocrats tell me what's good for me. I bet those are the same bunch that brought us infinite cookie warnings clicking.

  • But why? I don't mind infinite scrolling here. And an option to opt in/out and everybody's happy I suppose.

  • Reading this on Jerboa with infinite scrolling 😱

  • Antisemitism!!! /s

  • Sure, but even that would take time at that scale. But you are right, everything helps. I wonder, though, would the Orange block Chinese help...

  • That's not realistic. Not at present (energy storage is missing) and it takes time. It'd help though.

  • And it's by far not the first such case, fcuk this.

  • How it should go ^^, how it is going: everybody is silent, nobody dares to object the Orange, all countries are cowards, selfish and shortsighted. Even Chine just whines a bit. #wcgw

  • Every protection against US is welcome.
