Just curious because Distrowatch can be easily gamed; does anyone know how this might affect the linux consumer market? I'm using Mint and see no reason to switch to this. I used to nerd out about different distros but aside from the enterprise distros or Debian or Arch preferences I don't see why people are using smaller distros anymore. Hobbyist i guess?

The only Israeli ally in that list is Jordan. The other arab states you're saying are allies are definitely allied with the USA, but their leaders are trying to balance economic stability with geopolitical realities. Ex. the UAE joined BRICS because it's trying to build its sovereignty.

I think people fail to realise that USA == Israel. Even Biden said when he was younger that if Israel wasn't there the USA would have to have some other entity there to keep the middle east fractured. The Anglo-Saxons don't want a powerful Arab world it's a 500-year old rivalry.

Set up a trust to invest the money, from the compounding returns, use a sustainable portion of the dividends to fund a cause you believe will help change the world. Be very explicit to the trust managers as to the long term instructions of the trust.

With compound market returns the million dollars could be worth $40 million in 50 years and would be distributing af a sustainable 3% dividend, 1.2 million a year to a cause you believe in.

It's because the USA floods countries with cheap goods all the time and then cries foul when someone else does it. It's pure hypocrisy.

Have to disagree. The games and the trailer are very far apart.

The trailer looked like a wannabe Guardians of the Galaxy clone.

They never had a debate even though there were a couple candidates running. Biden has been mentally troubled for the last 9 months or so. It was party hubris that led to this crisis.
