Wimster9030 🇪🇺 🇧🇪 @wimster9030.wsocial.eu · 17/09/2026Het zal je misschien verbazen, Merijn.... Maybe it will surprise you, Merijn, but I have Linux Mint on my MacBook Pro after updating my OS was not possible anymore due to the "date of birth" of my 2018 "old" MBPro. It works like a charm. 100 1
Wimster9030 🇪🇺 🇧🇪 @wimster9030.wsocial.eu · 16/09/2026I can say I was there.... The powerfull speech of @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu and the first "live" broadcast on @wsocial.eu . It feels like I was part of a new promissing chapter of the EU. Now... let's make all 27 countries work together to fast track all the new initiatives. 000 0

Wimster9030 🇪🇺 🇧🇪 @wimster9030.wsocial.eu · 09/09/2026And Volkswagen (a German company !!!) is selling a factory to an Israeli arms manufacturer so they can continue the genocide against the Palestinian people. Who would have ever tought that Germans would help Judes to commit genocide to another population. Whaw. 110 1
Wimster9030 🇪🇺 🇧🇪 @wimster9030.wsocial.eu · 09/09/2026A Volkswagen advertisement on YT asked me: “Have you ever thought about a VW Golf?” 1. Volkswagen is selling a factory to an Israeli arms manufacturer so they can continue the genocide against the Palestinians; 2. Volkswagen wants to show advertisements on your car’s display. Uh??? No, thank you. 010 1

Wimster9030 🇪🇺 🇧🇪 @wimster9030.wsocial.eu · 08/09/2026Maybe this should have your attention too - Volkswagen has plans to sell one of its factories to an Israeli company that manufactures weapons to further facilitate the genocide in Gaza. That's a nice way to reconvert your business. Germany in full support of the Gaza genocide. Great headline. 120 2

Wimster9030 🇪🇺 🇧🇪 @wimster9030.wsocial.eu · 07/09/2026Maybe we can also stop to sell consumer computers/laptops with Windows as default OS and give people the choice between no OS, Windows and Linux (and start educating people about Linux as an excellent OS with all the tools they need). 120 2
Wimster9030 🇪🇺 🇧🇪 @wimster9030.wsocial.eu · 06/09/2026Thank you for sharing, but sharing an article that's hiden behind a paywall to an international public is not a good idea. 😀 110 1
Wimster9030 🇪🇺 🇧🇪 @wimster9030.wsocial.eu · 29/08/2026Update: we're 10:00 p.m. right now. Stil updating, freezing (reboot), start downloading again... 1% download each 15min (yes, I'm on UTP)... it's really crazy. FYI, updates in Linux... perhaps 1 or 2 min/day maximum. Please, all switch to Linux. It will bring joy back working on a laptop. 000 0
Wimster9030 🇪🇺 🇧🇪 @wimster9030.wsocial.eu · 29/08/2026I haven't used my Windows laptop for 2 months (I'm a Linux user). This afternoon @ 1:30 p.m., I booted up Windows, and it's been updating nonstop for over eight hours now—freezing, restarting, updating, freezing again, etc... It’s literally enough to drive you crazy. WHO STILL WANTS WINDOWS? 120 2

Wimster9030 🇪🇺 🇧🇪 @wimster9030.wsocial.eu · 04/08/2026Maybe you should consider AFFINITY (by Serif). That's the Adobe killer on the highest level. I use it on Linux, although there is no official Linux distro, but with Wine, there is a very good work around. 220 2
Wimster9030 🇪🇺 🇧🇪 @wimster9030.wsocial.eu · 31/07/2026Now it’s becoming really clear under the headline: “Connecting the dots.” The reason why Infantino shamelessly overturned the red card given to American star player Balogun. The Trump family is closely involved in Infantino’s coup to commercialize FIFA, holding a 20% stake. 000 0
Wimster9030 🇪🇺 🇧🇪 @wimster9030.wsocial.eu · 31/07/2026That is a good sign, but I'm still not conviced that the majority of FIFA countries would vote against. But hey.... there are no certainties anymore. 000 0
Wimster9030 🇪🇺 🇧🇪 @wimster9030.wsocial.eu · 31/07/2026FIFA will have it's way. Asian and African countries can smell the millions of dollars already. They have a majority over UEFA countries. FIFA will call it "the democratic proces", I call it bribery and a slush fund to buy votes. 130 3
Wimster9030 🇪🇺 🇧🇪 @wimster9030.wsocial.eu · 22/07/2026I have an old MacBook Pro with Linux Mint. Works like a charm, but I tried Affinity (with Wine), but the processor was too old and with only 8Gb RAM he was not strong enough. Now I bought a referbished Dell Optiplex with 32/512SSD and... whaw, Affinity works like a rocket with Linux Mint. 110 1
Wimster9030 🇪🇺 🇧🇪 @wimster9030.wsocial.eu · 22/07/2026Are you serious? Are you really gonna start posting about your crypto portfolio on WSocial? I have cryto too, but WSocial is not the right channel to bother people with that, IMO. 100 1

Reposted by Wimster9030 🇪🇺 🇧🇪Falah Mousa @falahmousa.wsocial.eu · 22/07/2026Why can five states block the world? The #UN Security Council has 15 members, but only 5 permanent powers can #veto action. Can a system where one state blocks global action still claim equal justice? World needs is a global system in which humans rights, the rule of law, and peace cannot be vetoed. 141 4
Wimster9030 🇪🇺 🇧🇪 @wimster9030.wsocial.eu · 20/07/2026WSocial can start with switching the translation feature from Google Translate to Deeple. That would be a great step forward too. 210 2

Wimster9030 🇪🇺 🇧🇪 @wimster9030.wsocial.eu · 17/07/2026My question is... what is the EC going to do about foreign influence in European politics? The Heritage Foundation, subsidies to far-right groups that want to dismantle Europe, and so on... Is the EU/EC just going to stand by, sigh, and let this happen? Is that also the rule of law? 010 1
Wimster9030 🇪🇺 🇧🇪 @wimster9030.wsocial.eu · 17/07/2026I understand that a war isn’t “business as usual,” but I get an uneasy feeling about sudden changes in the UKR government. Zelenskyy is showing signs of authoritarianism. Some of these changes can’t really be described as logical and seem more driven by popularity ratings compared to the president. 000 0

Wimster9030 🇪🇺 🇧🇪 @wimster9030.wsocial.eu · 14/07/2026That’s why the battle to become the AI benchmark is so fierce. Once you’ve become “standard” and people are used to it, it’s hard for competitors to convince that same audience to switch. You really need a “global switch,” and I think that can only happen through an exceptionally significant event. 010 1
Wimster9030 🇪🇺 🇧🇪 @wimster9030.wsocial.eu · 14/07/2026Same here, Kevin. After I decided to deactivate my Facebook account four years ago, I lost a lot of direct contact with family and friends right away. They didn’t follow me over to Fediverse. Everyone said I was crazy and that my rebellion against Big Tech wouldn’t make a difference anyway. 000 0
