  • Apparently most of these are from 2016, which feels like a fucking life time ago. Had to look up the time-line of his “career”.

    He came to prominence with his 2016 memoir, Hillbilly Elegy, which describes his upbringing in Middletown and his family’s Appalachian values. It became a New York Times bestseller and attracted significant press attention during the 2016 United States presidential election. Originally, Vance was a critic of Trump and in 2016 wrote a critical piece in The Atlantic against him, but he later came to support him. Vance launched his first political campaign for Ohio’s Senate seat in 2021 and won the Republican nomination after being endorsed by Trump. He defeated Democratic nominee Tim Ryan in the general election.

    My advice is try using existing documents with Libre office. You can install it on windows as well.

    I use Linux for over twenty years now and installed windows on a vm last week to Wirte my resume. Libre office is fine, you run into problems when opening and editing existing ms office documents. At least that is my experience.

    But give Libre office on windows a shot, see if you like it.


  • At least in feddit (main German instance) there were a lot of posts offering up financial support, but it was declined because it was not needed.

    I think especially the smaller communities wouldn’t have a problem coming with funds for hosting. Donations for lemmy developers have also increased significantly since the main exodus.

    I get your scepticism, but I think the lemmy community for the most part wants this thing to “succeed” and is willing to chip in a reasonable amount.





  • I regularly comments from users who were not aware or the financial situation. Maybe “we” need to promote it a bit more. But it is 332 per week, not month. At the beginning of the last migration it stood at 40 something, so we at least got some traction.

    Thanks for the update and thanks for the work guys, I really appreciate it





  • Damit haben sie die Partei ja nicht gegruendet, so habe ich das zumindest nicht in Erinnerung. Der Lucke und die Petry waren ja weitaus gemaessigter und seit sich Teile immer weiter radikalisieren, stehen sie auch unter Beobachtung. Das sind ja schon hohe Huerden die genommen werden muessen, bevor man in Deutschland eine Partei verbieten darf.

    Wie immer bei solchen Sachen. Es ist die eine Sache es zu wissen und die andere es zu beweisen.
