> Am I missing something here? The fact that all of the above is being presented as an exclusively Russian strategy. When almost all companies mentioned on this website are proudly and directly tied to non-Russian war industries. The tendency to omit pointing out non-Russian examples almost always indicates endorsement of their actions. And let me beat you to this that I condemn all offensive war industries no matter…
If you interact with American businesses, use American technology or pay taxes to any Western government, you're indirectly funding genocide, slavery, wanton environmental destruction and countless other crimes by the US, its allies and corporations. There is no ethical consumption under capitalism, none of our hands are clean. We all deal with our complicity in various ways, and draw our lines in the sand where we w…
And this whole falsely applied narrative is unironically a very frequent laundering tactic of their proponents.
And btw I don't even think most are really willing to accept the accusations of the American companies, as they've been told for centuries that these are the good guys.

#234The solution is to run Linux. KDE is a good desktop environment: https://kde.org/ 90% of Windows games run on Linux: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45736925 LibreOffice is an okay office suite (good enough for my purposes): https://www.libreoffice.org/ GIMP is a good image editor: https://www.gimp.org/ VLC is a good media player: https://www.videolan.org/vlc/
> LibreOffice is an okay office suite writer, perhaps. calc, not even close - google sheets is unfortunately better in almost every way, and google sheets aren't great either.

Aren't they're used for slightly different things though? GIMP for image manipulation and Krita for digital drawing? (Krita is pretty awesome though, it's up there with Blender for me)
What do you want to do in GIMP that Krita can't do with a better UI?
GIMP also has an excellent print interface. Krita doesn't have one at all.

Another great media player for those who prefer minimalist UI: https://mpv.io/ . Includes yt-dlp integration and a much nicer terminal interface.

#238This is probably youtuber drama about some random youtube algorithm led takedown and likely nothing to do with Microsoft or the actual content of the video that got taken down

And in the Linux community, "run" apparently has a slightly different meaning than what ordinary people are used to.
I thought the same but let's not pretend Windows is a holy grail for compatibility anymore. Especially when it comes to older games, this facade / image breaks down fast. I once tried to play Trackmania Nations (not Forever or United Forever, the ESWC one) because that was the first entry of this series I played. I still have all the files from back then so I thought it would be as simple as installing it and running…
