It's also the leader in building up renewables instead while everyone else sits lazily on their ass crying "why should we do anything when China exists?"

How about we do better than China first and then cry about them, instead of using them as an excuse to fail even harder than them?

No, I'm referring to reality, not your alternate mirror-universe version.

The one where militants attacking civilians don't become innocent civilians because you like their terror.

That's not an EV problem, but one of infrastructure.

This is like complaining about useless combustion engines when driving somewhere with no gas stations...

Computer-illiterates aren't the problem with Manjaro.

People using the pre-installed accessed to Arch's User Repository and landing in dependency hell or just updating the wrong package with the same result, to then look for help on the forum that is already a big joke and probably forgot to renew it certificate for the 4th or 5th time... that's the actual problem.

Also delaying critical security fixes for security reasons is the biggest bullshit concept ever invented.

Windows likes to mess with the EFI partition on updates, scrweing up bootloaders. That you can prevent by separate EFI partition on another disk, This way Windows doesn't see the other efi files to boot. But when it feesl really obnoxious, it also edits your EFI table and sets itself as the default. That doesn't actually damage your linux boot files, but you still need to log back with some bootstick and revert the change, to make your bootloader/menu the default again.

That's the reason people often switch to Windows only as a VM (there are even solution to passthrough a dedicated graphics card just for Windows, if that's for gaming) after some time. Because Windows is actively working against other OS's on your computer.

In a way their Secure Boot bullshit is nothing different. Get vendors to include MS keys by default, then pretend that Windows is somehow more secure because you need to deactivate Secure Boot to install soemthing else (who cares that one key on every machine is not exactly secure, even more so as MS keys were already found in the wild in malware so they don't even know how to not lose them...)

The clock thing is normal. Windows doesn't like UTC clocks with local adjustment for timezone like every sane system does it.

About the resolution issue. Did you deactivate fast boot in Windows. That's a bullshit feature decreasing boot time by not actually shutting off. It's some kind of hybrid standby. And it can lead to all kinds of problems, like for example not properly shutting down and releasing control over hardware. Which then leads to stuff like graphics or network cards not working properly in linux.

It's worse... sometimes you forget your bag or go to buy something unplanned. And after a decade you have more reusable bags at home than you will ever be able to use up in your life.

By your logic, Denmark, Germany and Spain aren't independent of Switzerland

By his logic the US isn't independent of Norway because they couldn't send NASAMS to Ukraine without approval...

So his "logic" might just be bullshit.

You don't realize how incredible funny (or sad.. depending on perpective) it is to see people like you parrot the same lie spoon-fed to you by lobbyists again and again while talking about other being too stupid to think.

This incredible post-factual world where popular narrative trumps reality is truely lost...

No, his proposal is requiring approval to be able to vote. Next step is to be the one controlling the approving instance. After that they don't need a long-term plan for voting anymore, as it's either them being in control or a revolt.

For Russia, or in this case their puppet, to invade a NATO country? Yes, it actually would be the first time.

Sure... as if there will be anyone who escalates with nuclear weapons against teerorists ever.
