In France, our PM’s party received 5,41% of the votes. All the parties supporting him received, if we add up all their scores, 28.5% of the votes.

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as Windows, is in fact, Firefox/Windows, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, Firefox plus Windows. Windows is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another component of a fully functioning Firefox system made useful by the Firefox browser, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS.

Many computer users run a modified version of the Firefox system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of Firefox which is widely used today is often called Windows, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the Firefox system, developed by Mozilla.

There really is a Windows, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Windows is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Windows is normally used in combination with the Firefox operating system: the whole system is basically Firefox with Windows added, or Firefox/Windows. All the so-called Windows distributions are really distributions of Firefox/Windows!

I begun judo a few weeks ago. The teacher was clear: it may not be useful in actual fight, but we don’t fight often in the real life. But it’s great for your body, spirit and it will teach you how to fall without hurting yourself. And these things are way more useful than self defense.

So how would the judges be appointed under this system and why is it better than having them chosen from the people?

By competition and diploma. A judge is a legal technician. Why elect him on political bases? We do not elect an engineer on political criteria, we take the one who seems the best among the candidates.

If the current system hasn’t prevented political influence, then the method of choosing obviously isn’t guaranteeing unbiased judges anyway, so what’s the point in keeping it as opposed to elected judges?

What’s the point to elect them?

Strong and diverse press, strong and enforced rules against politically motivated decisions. A judge should know that, if they don’t strictly follow the law, they’ll lose their job. This won’t make the thing perfect, but far better than officially political judges.

He may want to retire sooner than that 😅

mutt, because it looks like it’s from the last 20 years. Of the 20th century.

If I understand the original idiom, the nearest French expression would be “you can’t make a race horse from a donkey” (“tu ne peux pas faire un cheval de course d’un âne”).

Thanks.

I always thought that mini computer.were more power hungry than SBC. Am I wrong?

Yeah I thought that the first stanza, while not official, was still often sung by normal people and not just by Nazis. Looks like I was wrong 😅

Okay, thank you both for the correction !

Are you sure? I may be wrong, it wouldn’t be the first time, but I have the impression that people sing easily “Deutschland über alles”.

(For context, I never lived in Germany, but always near the border, so I have sometimes a distorted vision of what occurs there)

I unfortunately saw the video on a shady French site when I searched for his name (here; you can click, but it’s not very interesting and you’ll have visited an alt-right website).

Yes. But this politician sang the Deutschlandlied, not the Horst-Wessel-Lied.

More or less. The Deutschlandlied) is the hymn of Germany since before the Nazi era, wasn’t changed by the Nazis and still is today. But today only the third stanza is officially the hymn. However, people often sing the first one, which is the most well known.

During the Nazi era, there were a second hymn, which is more directly linked to this ideology.

It’s still the German anthem, it’s not especially Nazi.

Denying that Jesus probably had an erection on the cross is a negation of the human nature of Christ, thus an heresy.

For example : I write in French. It wasn’t easy for me to have a way to type É or Ç. Tmux wasn’t easy to configure. It took time to understand how to use USB drives. And now I didn’t use it for some time, and I’d have everything to learn again if I had to turn it on.

I’m no computer scientist. All these things may be trivial for someone who works with computers, but it’s not my case 😅.

I’ve done that on my potato, I installed Debian without a DE. It’s great, but I needed an insane amout of time to make it actually usable.
