Tja, schade das unsere geliebte EU so devot ist und Daddy machen lässt. Zeigt mal wieder ganz klar, wer klare Kante gegen Trump zeigt, gewinnt.

Ist schon spannend, ein CDU-Außenminister gerät unter Druck, weil er die Wahrheit sagt. JU legt ihm einen Rücktritt nah, in der CDU sagt man, Wadephuls Äußerungen "entsprechen nicht der parteiinternen Position". Wenn ein Land kaputt gebombt, instabil und gefährlich ist, kann ich dann einfach sagen "Ne bin anderer Meinung"? Ich verstehe wirklich nicht wo hier die Auslegungssache ist? Ihr auch nicht, schon klar...

Okay this may not be relatable for a lot of people who do not separate their trash into 4 different bins. But we have a dedicated bin for organic waste, we use it for energy production etc. The supermarkets put these little stickers on their fruit and veggies, they are similarly infuriating as stickers on non organic stuff.

Which instance did you switch to? Have you considered PieFed? Could you bring your communities with you? Do you miss it?

And the others, do you miss lemm.ee communities that died out where you couldn't find a replacement for?

I think about switching from Spotify for a longer time now, but with the recent ICE ads I want to be in solidarity with the people in the US and kick Spotify out.

Now I checked the Quboz app and I am in a test month with Tidal right now - so far Tidal is great on my mobile. However I also need a client for Linux!

I am using spotify-client on Linux Mint and works flawlessly. I know its development is not the main goal of Spotify engineers, but it just works.

Now for Tidal and Quboz it seems to be problematic - only Electron apps without HiFi sound because the chromium engine throttles the quality. How am I supposed to switch from Spotify if I can't use the alternative on Linux? Any advices/experiences?

Hey guys, when I installed Linux a year ago, I created a Windows / Linux Mint dual boot system, because I thought I would need Windows from time to time.
Guess what, Linux Mint is so great I only entered Windwos like 2 or 3 times, but in the end I don't need that trash anymore and want to get rid of it.

When I set up the dual boot, I read somehwere to seperate the partitions, so I installed Linux Mint to its own partition as you can see below, maybe this helps for the taks. I have a 1TB Toshiba HDD /dev/sda. I used it as basic file storage under Windows, now under Linux I just annexed it for the same purpose. It has some weird Windwos partitions I don't know what they are and how do they get there, I only mounted dev/sda4 for storage.

But the evil Windows partition is that 500 GB SSD. As my steam library is expanding a lot, I need space! So how can I get rid of Windows in a safe way? In my boot menu (it's called "GRUB", right guys?) I have a couple of entries, 2 partitions are named Windows but only one of them actually boots into it, the other goes into repair mode and then bootloop. I can look those up if they are important.

So, how can I get rid of the Windows stuff, make the boot menu recognize this, while not harming the Linux disk?

That is how the partition schemes of the 3 disks look like:

1000 GB Crucial NVME

/dev/nvme0n1p1	FAT		649 MB		/boot/efi  
/dev/nvme0n1p2	Ext4	41 GB		/root  
/dev/nvme0n1p3	Swap	18 GB  
/dev/nvme0n1p4	Ext4	941 GB		/home  

1000 GB Toshiba HDD

/dev/sda1   NTFS	419 MB  Microsoft Windows Recovery Enviornment (System, No Automount)
/dev/sda2   FAT32	315 MB  EFI Sytem (No Automount)  
/dev/sda3   Unkn.	134 MB  Microsoft Reserved (No Automount)  
/dev/sda4   NTFS	981 GB  Basic Data  --> mounted at /media/gigachad/Data
/dev/sda5   NTFS	367 MB  Microsoft Windows Recovery Environment (System, No Automount)  
/dev/sda6   NTFS	18 GB   Microsoft Windows Recovery (System, No Automount) (Push Button Reset)  

500 GB Samsung SSD

/dev/sdb1   FAT32   105 MB  EFI System (No Automount)  
/dev/sdb2   Unkn.   17 MB   Microsoft Reserved (No Automount)  
/dev/sdb3   NTFS    499 GB  Basic Data  
/dev/sdb4   NTFS    694 MB  Microsoft Windows Recovery Environment (System, No Automount)  
Free Space 2.1 MB

Found this in my local supermarket. Does anybody want to buy my NFTs? I got bored ape #8273748 in ultra edition with a radioactive beard and missing nose. I would post it here so you can check it out, but in the past people have illegally stolen my possesions. Hoping so much president Trump will introduce legislation to punish NFT crimes.

NFT theft is real theft!

Well, fuck

I noticed this for a longer time but I just thought MSN flooded the web with its shit. It didn't came to my mind it is actually duckduckgo trying to shove these msn links into my face...

I guess this is similar to google amp links, just stealing the content of other websites.

It annoys me big time, -msn doesn't seem to help

Update: I bought the Lift mouse and it just works perfect out of the box.

I know there are better communities such as !linuxhardware@programming.dev , but it isn't as active and I hope you understand me posting here for outreach.

So I have problems with my wrist from working on the computer, so I thought about trying a vertical mouse. I found the Logitech Lift Vertical would be a nice option, but after doing research I read it is a pain on Linux and does not work reliably. About some other models I read you need to set them up with Windows first to get them working (uurgghh)

Does anybody have good experiences with a vertical mouse on Linux?

I use Mint btw
