Really emphasizing to the world that the US is run by bunch of idiots

Get yourself and your friends on Matrix with Element or any other GUI program for Matrix. You’re on Lemmy, try out Matrix

The more users on Linux, the more commercial software will target it. Can already get Davinci Resolve and Autodesk Maya. Drive traffic to see more

US government really displaying that they’re a front for corporate interests. An arms and marketing division for US corporate lobbyist

And X will continue declining in popularity along with Tesla. More competitiors need to spring up against starlink so anyone on that including the government can dump that piece of shit

Would 100% force the US to fold. The loss of influence of American tech and banking software would cripple America further and without negative sentiment from much of the American populace. Anger directed towards Trump and Republicans

GIMP 3, Krita, Darktable, Inkscape, Kdenlive

Switch to Linux. Don’t use Microsoft email. If possible don’t use MS Office and if you currently need it, encourage Libreoffice, OnlyOffice, etc

Trump tariffs and he can’t afford more shit held against him. Bytedance is going to come out of this doing well

I’d consider it. If they host things outside of the US/start moving operations overseas, it’d be a lot more interesting. I sub to Proton for email, VPN, and drive support. Still hoping someday for proper Linux drive support so Mozilla/Thunderbird can target that

Pretty much. Everyone else will be able to trade with the east and southeast Asian countries business as usual. Maybe even more now that the US is making themselves less price competitive. The bad thing for the EU could be the drop in sales to the US not being replaced fast enough outside of the US leading to squeezing existing customers for more cash or possibly some businesses failing

All these weirdo billionaires building bunkers

Realistically, I would probably try a google free Android long before I’d try a more pure linux phone

Eventually I’ll try one. I feel like it can be like desktop Linux where it take a very many many long years until it starts to chip away at single digit values of market share

I’d be more than happy with 1GB/s drives for storage. I’d be happy with SATA3 SSD speeds. I’d be happy if they were still sized like a 2.5" drive. USB4 ports go up to 80Gb/s. I’d be happy with an external drive bay with each slot doing 1 GB/s

I’m sure there are data science/center people that can appreciate this. For me all I’m thinking is how hot it runs and how much I wish soon 20TB SSDs would be priced like HDDs

Android TV at least you can do simple custom launchers. I’m still hoping a more normal Linux becomes popular for TV. Hoping maybe SteamOS will be the pathway for that

Signal has been with me for a decade. Have had Matrix/Element installed for years but no one i know uses it

It’ll fall won’t be as dramatic as Digg but it will decline over time. Probably not have a major exodus event like Musk buying Twitter and renaming it and sending people to try BlueSky and Mastodon

I use nvme enclosures. Very fast and very hot. I also got some fikwot ssd based flash drive that’s about the size of a common flash drive. I’ve seen it sustain around 500MB/s very well. Some type of metal enclosure. At this point I’m probably only buying enclosures and small NVME drives or USB sticks where the enclosure is metal and reviews seem solid saying it’s hitting SATA 3+ speeds sustained well
