linux build where?

Dependent on your member state, look for websites such as this one: https://www.opferschutzportal.nrw/beratungsstellen

Do you have anything that you love to do, i.e. a hobby or something that you want to do? I would try to use your energy to focus on that, which can serve as a good distraction from the other problems in life, and, with some income, can help you become independent.

You could run a windows vm on linux :)

#ecology for example has a lot of nice English posts.

Also, introduce them to the gup.pe concept where social groups can be formed on Mastodon:

What new Mastodonians need to understand is that they need to follow hashtags, not people. This should be the first welcoming sentence on any instance.

I wonder if they included Mastodon in their “competitor list”.

From what I remember, the difference is quality control. Western companies are usually much more restrictive, accepting only every 10th or 100th item from the producer. The subpar items are then sold by the producer somewhere else such as Temu or AliExpress. I also know this to be true for microscopes. Motic produces in China for Zeiss, but Zeiss refuses most of their units due to QC issues, which are then sold by Motic under their own name for a fraction of the Zeiss price.

Aluminium recycling/melting however needs a lot of energy, which again is often generated from non-renewable sources. So even cans are bad for the environment.

Capitalism! in the modern area with a tad more complexity.

Rather than block lists, just subscribe to the lemmy communities that interest you and don’t subscribe to political/news communities. Then view lemmy through the “subscribed” feed rather than the “all” feed - no political posts - problem solved.

Maybe because the people in the Modi government have family and/or friends in the Gujarat province?

A Winnie Pooh reference maybe.
