  • You would do good here in The Netherlands. Lots of tech jobs, over here you actually have rights as an employee. No max amount of sick days for example, as no one plans a certain amount of days to be sick. The “FrEeDoM” Americans claim to have is so twisted and extremity far away from actual freedom. Here in NL I do feel I have true freedom. As in: not having to be scared when going out on the streets at night, no matter where I go. There are no guns. No crimes against humanity. Of course we do have issues, every country does. But they are tiny compared to most countries. Although we did vote for right wing parties sadly, we’re not heading in the direction I want.

    Oh and EVERYONE speaks English. From child to boomer. Officially it’s not a foreign language anymore due to the high level English most speak. They are even discussing it should be a 3rd national language.

    Edit: there’s also a (very unfair to us natives) 30%!!! tax cut for expats to make NL more attractive. So you will make a lot of money yet pay less taxes while having loads of benifits as an employee.

    Only issue right now is finding a house. Not enough houses so insane prices. A real housing crisis.




  • I highly doubt the US would invade France. Sure, let’s meet back here in 12 months. I hope you’ll manage during that time, with the massive recession around the corner and all the Trump decisions putting the US in a massive economical crisis. Better stock up on food, water and toiletpapier buddy! Please let me know what life is like under a totalitarian regime.

    Having the war mongering US on your side sure is handy, but we’ll manage without. I’ve spent 15 years in the navy, I’ve seen the US operate. I rather have 3 Russian ships nearby then 1 US ship. What a bunch of dumb idiots they are. You could thank me, as I personally intervened to prevent a US ship to shoot down it’s own helo near the German coast. Never have I seen bigger idiots with guns then the US during my time in the navy. It’s not hard to believe me either I guess, seeing the convict nazi clown which just got re-elected.

    Both the definition of ‘stupid’ and ‘egocentric’ is ‘US’ these days. It’s mainly the US making the comedy movie “Idiocracy” look like a documentary instead. You certainly help with that.




  • But it would solve a lot of issues. Like, people are ONLY allowed a rpg. When you’re in a fight, you will have to get range to fire otherwise you will die in the blast too. This will give you time to think “ah, is it really worth it? Maybe I’m overreacting.”

    An rpg is heavy. Obese people will loose weight carrying one.

    People with a micropenis won’t buy massive trucks anymore because they will be too easy to hit.

    You only have 1 round. So using it should be a wise decision. It will help people think before they act.

    People will be more polite, because you’re talking to someone with a fucking rpg.

    I can go on an on with why this is a good idea, honestly.










  • I have to confess, I disabled internet when installing windows to avoid all the booking[dot]com etc apps and ads. But I got ads on win11 and besides the MS apps ads I didn’t get anything else.

    I’ve seen several reports stating win10 is faster. I’ve based my opinion on those reports.

    Thank you for adding sources to your reply, I’ll look into it. For now I’m fucked up (drunk) because of the US elections as the outcome is either bad or extremity fucked up. And have a major influence for us Europeans as well.

    In the end, MS is fucking up their OS big time, whether it’s 10 or 11. I feel forced to switch everything I have to Linux, although I do depend on some apps which do not support Linux sadly. Like Directory Opus. I had a hard time working with network drives on Linux, which makes a switch hard for me as I have a NAS for my main storage. But MS sure pushes me to switch.


  • Bogus. They are the same in that regard. Stability is mostly dependent on used hardware and drivers these days.

    Ah, so all the tests must be wrong then. All the articles must be mistaken.

    A few minor things around taskbar placement. Even though my personal preference is a vertical taskbar on the left screen edge, it’s less important than WSL2.

    Just that? Then where are the old settings? The old configuration screen? It’s gone now in win11.

    Win10 also has ads, MS added more ads through updates. My work desktop PC runs Win10, my work notebook runs Win11. I have the comparison on a daily basis.

    I only had ads for win11 and office365 on win10. That’s it. Win11 has loads of ads.
