What a devious plan of the EU, funding terrorist infrastructure in Gaza!
Like a (terrorist) hospital and a (terrorist) desalination plant.

Wait, I thought in a free economy buyer and seller agree on a price and then the sale takes place?
If Germany was not paying enough, why are pharma companies handing over the drugs?
And wouldn’t the state interfering in that be Socialism?

This isn’t like a phone OS where they add ressource-draining new features every 6 months.
If your computer can run the OS at installation, it’ll be able to run it for a long time.
One good reason not to use Arch is if you have a limited internet connection.
Updates are often 1 GB or more per week, depending on what you have installed.
So if that’s an issue, Debian is the better choice.

Rule 6.
If you link to paywalled information, please provide also a link to a freely available archived version. Alternatively, try to find a different source.

This is a common translation error: The Goat People of Talshicazi only condemn dancing on (goat) kids before eating them, they have no issue with doing it to human children.

Does it print any new Arch news items before an update?
Does it warn you about changed config files?
If there are multiple possible providers for a dependency, does it somehow intelligently choose the right one based on your system?
If it doesn’t, then it’ll eventually break your system.

Are you a lawyer?

Here’s the list of all 59 independent Linux distros from distrowatch.com:

That’s just an old Ubuntu with a theme.

Software in the Public Interest is a US- based non-profit organization that legally represents and handles donations for Debian, Arch, LibreOffice, systemd and a lot of other projects. And if they’re in violation of US law, they can unfortunately be sued into oblivion. So they’re right to check with their legal team before making an informed decision.

I already can’t answer the first question. I’ve automated opening all of these as soon as I log in.
Yes, the energy drink, too.

Yeah, really easy, just all employees suddenly work for a foreign organisation which pays salary in foreign currency, while they’re still living and expected to pay income tax in the US. Transfers of money and tech are now cross-border and subject to Trump’s Truthed tariffs. All servers have to be transferred to different hosts, all SPF records need to be changed, all contact info updated.
Nothing difficult at all, it’s all really easy.
But hey, they avoided putting an empty data field in their OS, and with their 1% market share they sure sent a strong signal that’ll get lawmakers who have never even heard of Linux to reconsider.

The donations for Debian, Arch and a dozen others are collected and distributed by a non-profit that sits in the US, which also represents them legally. If they’re sued into oblivion, the distros have no more money for hosting their repos.

Debian, Ubuntu, most of their derivatives except the niche ones, Arch, Endeavor, Manjaro, Fedora. Basically all major ones.
Mark my words.

He didn’t apply the change, he proposed it.
And there’s zero surveillance in the change he proposed.

Where the hell are they? That’s not a roller-coaster.

Then why don’t they require age verification in this new law, only a method for the user to enter any date (without forcing them to enter one)?

Nothing, and that’s legal, too. The new law only requires a method for putting in an age or birthdate, no age verification.
Germans tried to make up for inventing the ICE car and went on to develop the ICE train.
But unfortunately, that one tends to break down when the weather’s too hot.
