Yes this is also my concern with Windows, the spyware and the data stealing. And you are right it is the big step of switching to Linux that is the biggest ordeal.

My god, you blew my mind. Thank you for this great explanation.

Thank you I've learned something new.

No special use case, I'm just thinking out loud what it will take the common computer user to turn away from Microsoft Windows.

Thank you I love your reply!

Yes this is indeed a great step into the right direction. it seems that when I look at all the comments Wine is is indeed the best the option.

[-] stat_rosa@lemy.nl 2 points 1 day ago

Apologies, yes I sounded a bit simple, but your explanation is very helpful.

[-] stat_rosa@lemy.nl 2 points 1 day ago

Thank you. I already thought this would be the case.

Windows is still considered the standard in the world. Most of us know that Linux is the better operating system. What will it take to get people to switch from Windows to Linux?

Did not know this existed, thank you. This is a very interesting OS, but indeed it is not Linux.

[-] stat_rosa@lemy.nl 3 points 1 day ago

So at the moment Wine seems to be the best possibility to come near to the experience of Windows.

[-] stat_rosa@lemy.nl 3 points 1 day ago

Yeah something like Wine, but running natively in the Linux OS.

Is there a possibility and I'm not talking about breaking patents or anything like that, but I'm talking about a possibility technically, to have a Linux OS that can run Windows 11 apps natively?

No bottles or ports, just download an EXE file and run it.

So I was checking Game of the year list on Wikipedia and noticed that Assassin’s Creed was never Game of the Year.

Not on any list around the world did it reach the top. The first one felt very fresh, but it just did not feel complete. But the 2nd one was just an amazing game and that one got beaten on some lists by Uncharted 2 which is understandable, but also by Batman: Arkham Asylum which is basically inspired by AC.

Maybe they should just ditch the whole Animus plot. I wished that Valhalla and Black Flag were just about being a Viking and a Pirate

I Went a little crazy with degoogling.

In general

  • From Chrome to Brave/Waterfox
  • Gmail to ProtonMail

Tablet:

  • Chromebook Lenovo Chromebook Duet 3 to Postmarket OS

Mobile I already had my old Pixel Fold running GrapheneOS, now I also installed it on the Pixelf 10 pro. This one I will use the coming weeks. I heard of rumors that the battery drain is terrible but I will experience that for myself.

I have two phones which run Chinese roms

  • The Iqoo z11 Turbo - This is my daily driver
  • Vivo Fold X 3 - This one does not run any google services this resulted in a very nice nice battery experience.

I do not want to change anything else on these Chinese phones, but I'm wondering what impact Android 17 will have on the Chinese models?

Especially in the last year with Trump taking office I have the feeling that all the declassifying by he government and a rise in so called documentaries like that of Jeremy Corbell are nothing else than a distraction from a more serious subject or incident.

Come to think of it maybe it has always been like that. Governments around the world found out that people were fascinated with UFOs and used this to there advantage. The whole UFO scene probably started with a trick of the eye or an optical illusion. And Alien abductions probably started with abusing of drugs and alcohol or being exposed to dangerous fumes. Hell the need for attention and money is reason enough.

I really would love to believe Bob Lazar and he seems a genuine guy but spilling secrets like he did, people have been killed for less.

Is this me just having an edgy take or do you feel the same way? By the way I still hope there is something out there.
