The post does contain the link to the petition, anyway it's this one: https://www.europarl.europa.eu/petitions/it/petition/content/0729%252F2024/html/Petition-No-0729%252F2024-by-N.-W.-%2528Austrian%2529-on-the-implementation-of-an-EU-Linux-operating-system-in-public-administrations-across-all-EU-countries

I'm using linux, tho I wanted to reverse engineer the program to make the controller customizable under linux, but if I don't run windows I can't do that!

Ah shit we are back to "Ken Thompson Compiler Hack" again

Nope the article state

However, this new driver has also rolled out to Windows 10 and Windows 11 devices in the USA that do not have to comply with the DMA act, shedding doubt on this theory.

Yes the deer is the Libreboot logo

I use Arch btw

For what I just read in the github discussion and in the linked gnome discussion is not endorsed by Gnome, as you can see here

Very early in development, but the developer is now busy doing a lego island decompilation soo.

The best way to switch imo is to first to switch some of your currently installed app on windows with others that have a linux version, so you will not be entirely lost when you switch os.

For example Microsoft Office is not available on linux so maybe try libreoffice or onlyoffice, another example Photoshop doesn't have a linux version too.

Then maybe try to familiarize with the os on a vm or on a live usb, especially on a live usb so you know what works out of the box and with your hardware.

If you want to game look for you games on protondb if they work or not, for online games instead watch areweanticheatyeat to see if the anticheat work.

Last tip is to go with a know distro not something obscure like steamos or kali linux, they are not meant to be used as daily drivers especially kali and can give you problems that will not occurre in other distro!

But OSM is not a simple map but a database of data, what you see on their site is only an implementation of what you can do with the data.

That's not an issues here the data is open to everybody indeed there is the Linux Foundation behind this, it uses the CDLA Permissive v2.0 license and people are even talking about using it for mapping on osm!
