Oh so you can install KDE/Gnome/XFCE apps on Chrome OS and they will work?
You know the "desktop" in Desktop Linux means compatibility is on the desktop apps,and that goes way beyond terminal commands right?

I agree with basically all of that. Problem is USA and UK are essentially 2 party systems, so taking control of either is the only option to gain power.
For some reason UK voted against having a more democratic system, which is so stupid moronic idiotic that I don't have words.
Both countries need to modernize their democracies, and until that has happened the only option is to gain the power to do it.
But yes the media are right wing too, because all media is owned by billionaires, so there is no such thing as fair press in politics.
UK has the BBC, but that too is controlled by right wing powers, so although it's better than American media, it's still mostly on the side of the right wing establishment when it counts.

It's a shitty situation in both places, but democracy is not something that is given, it is something that needs to be fought for. And even when we have it, we need to actively preserve it.

Linux as an OS is generally meant as Desktop Linux, and it most definitely is in this context that is about desktop marketshare, Desktop Linux is mostly following freedesktop guidelines, which has traditionally helped standards on Linux a lot to streamline developments. So for instance XFCE/Gnome/KDE desktop apps can be run in all the different desktop environments. For instance also standardizing things like how tray icons work. Freedesktop is part of X.Org Foundation, and Chrome OS does not use X.org or Free Desktop standards at all. The newer Wayland to replace X is also an X.org standard.

So while Chrome OS is based on the Linux kernel, it is NOT a Linux OS in the original sense, a term that became popular decades before Chrome OS or Android became a thing.

If you include Chrome OS you might as well include Android too. As it can run on for instance Raspberry Pi and other mini systems, and could be used as a desktop system.

Chrome OS is a Linux kernel based OS, and not much more than that.
It's somewhat confusing in some situations that Linux as a desktop OS doesn't have a unique name, but it wasn't a problem originally, as what some prefer to call GNU/Linux was made 100% for desktop use originally.

The Linux kernel is way way more widespread and successful than what we usually term Desktop Linux or GNU/Linux.

TLDR:
Linux OS, Desktop Linux, GNU/Linux are generally meant as the same thing.
Chrome OS and Android do not belong in that category. They are Linux based as in the Linux kernel only, but do not follow the standards of Desktop Linux.

I think the best chance for progressive democrats is to try to take over the party.
David Hogg showed the way, and the ones that helped unseat him for it has now been revealed as the ones that need to go.

Follow the leaders by their actions, not their ability to sweet talk their way out of doing what is necessary.

Democrats:
Yes you really convinced us, we will hastily create a special committee, with the specific purpose of writing a very stern letter to the Trump administration.

If it's infinitely long it has zero energy, making it kind of irrelevant.

You are funny.
Same strategy I just revealed above, asking a stupidly generalized question lacking the specifics about what I'm supposedly arguing with flawed logic. While apparently you are not being able to point anything out.
It's easy to ask stupid questions, but generally a lot harder to answer them reasonably.

You are the one who has me tagged, and when I recalled who you are, you claimed you don't even remember the interaction that caused you to tag me.
You started this making personal attacks, and made comments to me that were so out of line they were removed by the moderators.
And now you claim I'm the one who is pissed off, and is trying to discredit you, just for responding to your attack on me.

You simply refuse to learn, and you refuse to accept when you are wrong.
You are discrediting yourself just fine without my help.

I agree, which is the joke in that the cars sitting idle are perfect for Americans sitting idle while their country collapses.

Funny you ask for proof, when I just gave you proof on your previous question:

Did I claim that? 💋

You did the exact same thing last time ad nauseam, you just go on and on questioning another thing when something was just proven to you. No I'm not going to prove it, because this was months ago, and I don't care to dig through hundreds of posts to find your stupid posts to present them to you again.
If you can̈́t remember, why do you choose to keep this grudge going? That's your problem.

The part about holding a grudge by your own admittance, is shown right here in this thread for everyone to see.
But as is typical for you, you just say "prove it" without stating exactly what it is you want proof of.

When I write: "you argue opinionated on baseless assumptions without evidence with flawed logic. "
You are welcome to interpret that as merely my opinion. And obviously I can't prove an opinion.
That's like being asked to prove a color is pretty.

Again a clear symptom of your flawed logic, and assumption that people will understand what you mean, even when you fail to provide the necessary specifics.

It doesn't make it wrong, but it means it probably is wrong more often than not. Especially when the downvote is overwhelming, and there are no or almost no upvotes, then it is a very strong indicator.
It has happened to me too, and has been cause for reflection, and has meant that I discovered I actually was wrong. None of us can be right all the time.

Wow, you don't even remember what you responded a few hours ago!
I wrote:

Seems like you have an obsession with me?

And you responded:

Nah, just got you tagged.

So yes you did claim that.

I remember you clearly now, you argue opinionated on baseless assumptions without evidence with flawed logic.
And by your own admittance you like so much to hold a grudge that you tag people to get back at them.
That's just so pathetic.

If you don’t like being constantly reminded of various ill comments I’ve seen you post

And you claim you are not obsessed.
🤣 🤡

FDM warns of errors in several models from Tesla, and FDM has now been successful by the Danish Road Safety Authority. FDM has previously described that there are several cases of significant veil in the rear suspension and in the steering column of the popular Model 3.

The Danish Road Safety Authority has stated that the motorists' interest organization, FDM, rightly did not approve two Tesla Model 3 by sight after the car owners had independently complained about the demand for omsyn.

FDM said in a statement.

In both cases, the sight results were due to "too much veil in bushings in rear-wheel suspension".

However, Tesla found no faults and thought the electric cars should have been approved, which led to complaints and the Traffic Agency's review. Many Teslas have "veil in the bushing"

The agency concludes that the cars had a significant veil and that the vision had been carried out correctly in both cases.

Earlier in the year, the FDM warned that there are many Teslas that have veils in bushings in the rear-wheel suspension and in the steering column. See also FDM comes with call for Tesla owners

Veils in rear suspensions mean that there is a looseness or abnormal movement in the parts that connect the car's rear wheel to the car itself.

This applies to both the Model 3 and Model Y. According to FDM, around 37,000 Model 3 and more than 40,000 Model Y have been registered in Denmark. The error is seen on newer cars

Usually you first see the problem on older cars, which have driven many kilometers, but FDM has seen several models with the error early in the life expectancy of the cars.

It creates doubts about the safety of cars, writes FDM, who has contacted Tesla to get the company to solve the problems. See also Tesla gets fined for flawed marketing

"We expect Tesla to help drivers, as it is not fair that the consumer has an additional cost of repair and possibly overhaul, because the car has a fault it shouldn't have," said Lone Otto, area manager in FDM's technical advice.

At the beginning of the year, FDM said that almost one in four Model 3 from the year 2020, which last year was for inspection, failed - among other things because of veils.

For other electric cars, the dump percentage was nine.

I'm stressing the European parts, because my post from yesterday about Russian losses in Ukraine war was removed as "off topic".
Despite this sub is about:
News and information from Europe 🇪🇺

 

Merz pointed out that the restrictions have been lifted not only on German weapons.

"There are no longer any restrictions on the range of weapons delivered to Ukraine, neither by the UK, France, nor us. There are no restrictions by the US either,"

 

Putin is getting more and more desperate. As he is running out of options, he is just increasing the meat waves!

 

In Denmark when a car reaches 6 years, it needs to be safety checked to be used on the roads. After that it's every 2nd years.

Tesla model 3 managed these safety checks extremely poorly, with 3 times the average failure rate.

In total, 1,392 errors were found on the Tesla model, which is three times as many compared to the other electric cars.

What are these updates? Although the game has very few issues, they are never fixed!

Edit:
Apparently it's not updates, but downloads of undermined purpose?
