    • Set a decently good password (password is required frequently on Linux, so do go overboard with a 40-random-characters-long password, you will regret it)
    • don’t install programs or run scripts from shady sources, prefer to install programs from the Software store (package manager and flatpak)
    • setup a backup system to regularly copy all your files to a separate storage device. This is the way to protect yourself from ransomware but also user errors! Having the possibility to format your drive, reinstall and restore backup in a 1 hour time span is going to give you the peace of mine you need for exploring and experimenting with Linux




  • In Germany people mostly follow the rules while driving. Most important ones being:

    1. Stick to the right lane unless overtaking
    2. No overtaking from the right

    I don’t recall ever seeing cars slaloming in between other vehicles on the highway in Germany like it’s common place in other countries like France.

    The discipline of all drivers makes the German Autobahn safe.

    Another thing to note: when driving over 120km/h on the unlimited Autobahn, you are automatically responsible at least 50% with any accidents you’re involved with. So, you speed “at your own risk” in a sense.





  • People have to stop believing that wealthy people will leave instantly once they begin getting taxed. This is just a lie.

    They are wealthy because of their assets and connections. They have houses, appartements, offices and factories. They have a network of influencer in the country they live in, in the city they live in ! They have a big family, kids. It’s actually harder for these people to move out than you and I.

    The money is already escaping. They use any loopholes (fiscal optimization they call it) to pay much lower tax than anyone else proportionally.

    They won’t leave ! Let the tax begin ! The loopholes have to be eliminated so that they cannot convert their wealth to escape tax artificially.
