The catholic church strongly opposed the Nazis. A lot of christians were killed by the Nazis because of this. The pope is more like: like: "Fuck, not those guys again"

In gormany you can buy Tolino ereaders. Similar price to amazon, does not need an account. If you want to move stuff on there, you can just connect it to your computer, where it shows up as a usp storage device. If you want to use their cloud (no subscription, you get 30GB for your own stuff + all books bought from a number of varios book stores are hostet for free), you obviously need an account, but still upload all your stuff like totally your legally aquired collection of 20000 ebooks. At some point there was the possibility to update it via your computer, so you can use this device completely offline

You could argue emics & it's ecosystem, since all the extentions make it really powerful. For me emacs is more like a shell or a terminal. Itself is pretty useless, but there are a lot of tools, that work with it and integrate with one another. Emacs is just somewhat graphical version of a terminal with a shell running on it

To be fair: companies should not focus on maximizing their stock value or work for some investors. They should focus on delivering the best product for the best price. For quite some time, especially in the US, the product of the most companis were just their shares. The best one just made the most money for it's investors. Trump finally fixes that. Also he really does some for the small people: Stocks are not a way to got rich, but a way to stay riwh - if the stock market outperforms the economic growth rich people get even more rich, poor people get more poor! Only rich people have money to spare to invest

Time for a user agent switcher. Like "Yeah, I swear, I'm a PS5, that has only monospaced comic sans insrelled"

To be fair: I switched to Linux 6 years ago. I'm using a tiling windowmanager, a lot of custom scripts, a different keyboardlayout with six instead of two layers (great for writing greek math, and other symbols) and an enthusiastic emacs user. I know the my System in and out. As a CS end math student, I know a fair bit about a Computer. But when A sit in front of an ordinary windows PC, I am a little bit upset. I stumble a lot of times over the thought: "You don't have a keyboard shortcut for this! You have to use the Mouse, to switch Windows or you have to click yourself trough a menu to change this setting. There are no man pages you can search with regex" I hate it!

I think he isn't a leftist, but just reasonable
