  • Oh, I actually meant Windows at home. Windows at work is definitely problematic.

    But at home, for my own stuff, Windows just works, with zero setup or maintenance hassle. I used to do the whole Linux thing, had set up dual boot (again for games that only work on Windows ) it was not only not fun, what was I getting out of it? I found myself not even booting to Linux because it literally was not providing me with anything I needed.














  • You’re getting downvoted but you’re not wrong. I lived in Israel for 4 years and I was in an Arab neighborhood. They were mostly christian, but they were all pre-israel descendants and they had all the same rights as anyone else.

    I’m super against what the government of Israel does, but apartheid just doesn’t fit.

    I have also lived in south Africa, post apartheid but close enough that I’m very familiar with what it really was.

    I see why apartheid is used, in some ways it is descriptive and useful but it ignores a lot and is ultimately inaccurate like you say.


  • Question, do these bodies have teeth? And if so would these teeth exist without the EU?

    My understanding of the EU is that the only thing they can really do to coerce uncooperative members is threaten to revoke membership.

    So, if these bodies are not EU, and it wants to impose a sanction against a member nation, by what mechanism can it enforce that?

    Just wondering.
