Not many arguments. I can't see why Gnu Guix is discarded for Nix (similar OS management)..

This is how all US government works. US and the Mericanized EU works by lobbying, information management, and threats/gifts to people with a Tie.
Capitalism makes sure we have 'one vote pr Dollar', instead of 'one vote pr human'. This is not "Democracy", so we in the West ARE in a fascist controlled society, and have been for most of our lifetimes. Check out our votes in UN, and see how we have supported US in all their insanity for ages. We supported Israel, ISIS, Kurds and all other bad players that US wants our elite and us to support.
EU for profit media works the same as in US and are being paid to output certain information, and not other information. EU media soes not deliver 'truth' - they are corporations. So EU elites are manipulating their populations also. Find out how the rich uckers manipulate our own 'Democracy' in our own countries. It works the same, but less openly than in the US cesspool..
Well, he is forced to try to end the war he and his buffoon predecessors started. There are plenty evidence for that fact, and both Russia and Iran were to be 'beaten' before US tried attacking China.
However, things have gone completely sour for the US plans from day one, and US are now trying to get rid of the war against Russia so they can focus their attack/resources in the middle east.
US also manufactured the 'evidence' for a war against socialist Yugoslavia, and later Serbia etc. All right in front of the entire EU population. Oc, US lies about every single 'enemy' they have, so Iraq, Syria, Libya, Afghanistan etc was ALL build on lies. That same lying/propaganda was used to manipulate Ukraine, convince EU populations and get 'manufactured consent' for their scheme to attack Russia by proxy. Sweep the headlines of the below videos if you don't believe a word. Everything is documented for those that have not closed off opposing information. Ukraine war was pure manipulation, and it still works because they created a European 'lynch mob' that can't re-evaluate the 'facts' their anger are build on: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrMiSQAGOS4&list=PL6-hcqTF_eSc6PIdk3QIwtoxtTK1wr30y
Everything that happens now in the world can be understood if we extend the US insanity to beyond Trump - to all US administrations, and to understand how US works, and what they want (curb China/control Oil). US have always been an enemy of everyone - decades and decades before 'Trump' came along and dropped the US fascist mask. They are always in a war they them-selves started. It was always fascism directly under the primitive 'Democracy', 'Freedom' and 'human rights' propaganda that simply doesn't exist in US sphere of control. (as IF the US Epstein class would care about any of those things!)
Trump is just following the think-tank policies he is given - just like all the other smiling psychos from the US Oligarchy did. They are not to be trusted at any time.
So all in all, good for EU. There are only a few solid rocks that want to stop this manufactured war, so we should all support Orban and all other critical non-war voices. It doesn't even matter what 'side' people believe is right. Europe are being hammered from all sides and should not actively support US wars at the same time. We need to end that conflict ASAP, or EU and its citizens are done for..
Support Orban, and all the other smaller EU nations that are revolting against US manipulations in EU, and winding down our war against Russia and other US manufactured 'enemies'. Trump and his predecessors actions are purely for the benefit of US Oligarchy, and they'll switch intentions without blinking, without warning their vassal states, and kill millions of innocent civilians without blinking, and manipulate the whole world for their own benefit - pure psychopathy. All of this can be found and understood by anyone. Start with the link.
Hm, I tend to like weird small distros, but I don't think "This command-line-only OS can help you learn the CLI." is enough to recommend it. ALL distros have a terminal, and many many of them are similar to this distro.
"Peropesis is a special kind of Linux distribution."
No, its not, and the reviewer that have 'reviewed lots of distros' didn't even explain what boot system it uses. Is it a Debian variant or ? What does it do that any other distro with a terminal doesn't do ? (Except not being persistent/installable) Why not just spin up a normal Debian server in lxc ?
There are many other suitable terminal distros out there..
It's gonna be great. China is years ahead of western societies in any social technology !
The "Ball" we 'dropped' was just the soft-power technique of bullying everybody else - nations or humans alike - that didn't want to be run/owned by Western Oligarchs, and then hide the fact to its citizens. Someone should have kicked that ball of the field long ago.
So we are all lucky that US dictatorship is getting clubbered by all its enemies, and that China+ is appearing as the future direction of humanity..
China already did long time ago, and US were already finished before they put Trump on the spot.
All the insanity from 'Trump', was planned by think tanks years before, so ALL lib/dem presidents just played the big think tank game just like Trump, and he is just showing the real face/intents of the US fascist dictatorship. None of them - no matter 'side' cared about causes or people, and all of them played the pre-set game dictated by the US Oligarchs.
Current US behavior are just 'mask off' that shows who is really in charge in the US "Democracy" and what they think of anything else than keeping their property/power.
I have a hard time imagining devs from Gnu (Guix etc) not having anti-corp attitudes, but I don't know.
The whole open-source/Foss community have seen a huge influx of windows/AI 'normies' that does not share the collective 'ideals' where free/open are needed bco corporate tyranny/control (or whatever peeps did it for then). Newcomers are welcome, but they don't necessarily care about any of the reasons the open source community survived and prospered. Currently the community is mostly viewed as just 'free' and 'open-source' tech standards pushed by corporates. They have inadvertently 'polluted the well' of what FOSS/open-source was, and reduced the unwritten ideals to just meaning 'free'. Corps use 'open-source' now to boost their ratings, and the general corporate attitude is to take instead of giving..
I think it is fairly normal that newcomers doesn't share all sentiments (whatever they are), so any growing movement must diverge/specialize. Here we are dealing with corporate encroachment and 'term-takeover' + a blatant attempt at setting the standards of the OS world. Corps will always do that, so as OP hints at, we may need to create a term that defines non-corporate/non-fascist digital living more directly.
However, it's not easy agreeing what a new term should include/exclude.
Get rid of capitalism and it is fine..
Why would Capitalists believers suddenly NOT be luring/cheating vulnerable people ?? Wether AI already contains hidden ads or not, it will be here before we can blink an eye.
Ai is just another tool for these psychos, so oc they will use AI to continue their nasty exploitative behavior towards other people. This pathological behavior is even approved by the Capitalist religion/dogmas that only prescribe 'profits' - not constructive social behavior..
The article didn't mention any criticism of the 'free fight for your life' societal system that both enables and nurture such shitty behavior, but just complains that people are lured to unlicensed casino's ! So cheating the 'vulnerable' is totally fine as long as the local lib governments gets their cut..
So lets turn to the source of this 'article' for a moment. Looking at the sponsors from 2024, we see a bunch of nasties that would never care about people, truth, 'society' or anything but their own purpose/benefit:
Total institutional support was 774.934 EUR. GLS Dachstiftung für individuelles Schenken, Germany: 320.000 EUR Adessium Foundation, Netherlands: 100.000 EUR Open Society Foundations (OSI), US: 100.000 EUR The Reva and David Logan Foundation, US: 67.734 EUR Fritt Ord, Norway: 62.200 EUR Schöpflin Stiftung, Germany: 60.000 EUR Stiftung Hübner & Kennedy GmbH*, Germany: 30.000 EUR Limelight Foundation, Netherlands: 20.000 EUR Rudolf Augstein Stiftung, Germany: 15.000 EUR *unique donation beyond the foundation’s usual policy
Oc, we immediately see Soro's and big banks in the mix. These cunts do NOT care about creating a better society for ordinary peeps. They ONLY invest in what benefits them. Most of the others are standard 'free journalism' sites that are all funded by the same shitters in a big circle-jerk, so they are only facades, and are not 'independent' NGO's in any way.
These NGO's are a part of a huge network of US initiated outlets that appear nice, but have another purpose. This network is one of the many ways US Epstein class manages information for both local vassal states/populations, and 'regime changes' for all nations that don't want Soro's et. al. to control and exploit their nation.
This whole site is nothing but a standard US initiated NGO propaganda outlet that does NOT benefit ordinary people. US enemies have disallowed these obvious propaganda outlets, but we allow them bc the rich sh*tters already control the information in western societies enough to agitate the peeps in any direction they want.
Odd thing that anyone would push an 'article' like this without checking the source funding, but maybe a bot selects them.
Anyway: Disgusting incompetent ignorant non-journalists..
