I switched to Linux Mint a few weeks ago and it was eye-opening

So now he's busy dismantling what little consumer protections are left in the US. Makes so much sense.

Folks, this was a year ago.

If only someone would reply to him with the screen Twitter displays when you try to read a post while not signed in…

Is this real? I'm having a hard time believing he posted this.

I guess when you're a head of state you gotta be careful about what goes on your devices.

For anyone reading this that has to install Windows, when you get to the point where it asks you to log into a Microsoft account, hit shift+F10, type oobe\bypassnro into the command prompt and after it reboots select "I don't have an account"...

I would still maintain that Linux is a better option though.

Wasn't that method patched out of the installer?

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 week ago

Nope, it still there

He deserves it

This supposed genius still uses Windows?

Probably is just abusing his power and platform to move public opinion in the direction he wants. Looking at the rest of this thread, most of us took the bait.

linux isnt popular enough for him to claim to be an expert on it

[–] [email protected] 55 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Also the Linux people would've destroyed him

And then he would have cried like a little bitch and go to GNU and tell them he is going to buy Linux for a jillion dollars and then get Pikachu face when he finds out that he can't control the kernel.

Remember when it was possible to browse Twitter unrestricted without having to sign up with an account? Those were good times.

[–] [email protected] 68 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

My exact first thought. If he's going to abuse his power and force govt services to provide twitter updates it should be accessible to all without restriction.

The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) on Saturday said it will stop e-mailing news organizations and reporters with updates about two plane crashes that occurred earlier this week.
Moving forward, the federal agency tasked with investigating transportation-related accidents and disasters said news organizations and reporters will have to follow the agency’s official account on X

Yes you do have to live in capitalist hellscape too, asshat. Maybe you should have thought about that a little sooner. >:(
