I also have the account @Novocirab@jlai.lu.
lmgtfy always was needlessly unfriendly, but in the age of search result enshittification, it’s even lost the excuse of technically providing a good solution (at least in cases like this).
Creating a live USB with persistence is lengthy and even the decent tutorials out there vary greatly in their suggested approach, making it perfectly legitimate (even for non-beginners) to ask for guides that others have found helpful.
What a needlessly unfriendly response.
In case anyone wonders about the context, this is the paragraph:
In April, Palantir co-founder Joe Lonsdale got into a brawl with former Coinbase chief technology officer and Network State advocate Balaji Srinivasan. It wasn’t on a prominent stage or even Twitter/X; it happened in a Signal group chat that’s become a virtual gathering place for influential tech figures. Srinivasan wasn’t going along with the tech right’s aggressive anti-China rhetoric, so Lonsdale accused him of “insane CCP thinking.” “Not sure what leaders hang out w you in Singapore but on this you have been taken over by a crazy China mind virus,” he wrote.
Oddly enough, this guy Wolfram Weimer is a die-hard right-winger. So I was quite flabbergasted when I first read the headline, and still am doubting whether he really intends to follow through with this or rather is only floating this idea in order to introduce another bargaining chip in the trade negotiations with Trump.
Has an implausibly high number of these comments perchance been posted at night hours? (I noticed that once with pro-AfD comments in Germany.)
I bought a T5xx-Thinkpad from nbwn.de (=notebookswieneu.eu) many years ago. It was an extremely good purchase. They ship to the entire EU for free if your order is above 200€. They specialize in selling demonstration laptops, i.e. devices that companies tried out and then returned, so they are essentially new.
However, I highly recommend to wait for the Windows 10 EOL to really hit around winter time, because then thousands if not millions of used and unused laptops that are sorted out for not supporting Windows 11 will flood the market. (Even if you’re aiming to buy a laptop so new that it will probably also support Windows 11, the flood of older devices could well bring down the prices for such newer devices also.)
Ich glaub die Downvotes kommen einfach, weil in dieser Community hier (auf lemmy.ml) die allermeisten Leute Englisch erwarten.
People with your attitude are a significant reason why people decide against Linux. It’s doing Microsoft a service.
Actually this might make for a fun propaganda game: Set up a website where every person can mark, for each item on the list, whether they made the switch, so that in the end they receive a picture they can share on social media so as to engage in a low-key “competition” with their friends.
Worth noting that with KeePassDX, there’s a compatible mobile app.
There are word filters for Lemmy?
