Plot twist: Politico is owned by the German right leaning publisher Springer.

It still is perceived as such. Actions like these erode relationships and shift perspectives. But before you take countermeasures it is good to think about cui bono.

As an example: the EU member country Hungary is currently plagued by an autocratic leader named Orban. This man is openly hostile to the EU and provocations are his daily business. The EU could a) play hardball and retaliate, which would have grave consequences for the people of that country and give Orban an opportunity to spin this in his favour. Or b) Play nice (within limits) thus having a greater chance for the people of this country to realize in the upcoming elections in Hungary there is a better choice than Orban.

Bought a new PC and switched from dual boot Win10/Linux to Linux only. All of the games I'm playing work well, so no need for Windows 11

little choice for amazon the logistic company

Depends on where you live. Here in Germany we have a few alternatives, like "Otto" and a few others with specialisations like electronics. Some of them have a marketplace just like Amazon and they even offer the same cheap chinese crap that Amazon has to offer. So you could feel right at home.

Yeah, I know. Especially the MS Office dominance is still a problem in business scenarios. For private use though there are office solutions which are "good enough" (Office 365 and Google Docs, Spreadsheets etc in a Browser, Libreoffice to name a few)

Maybe you were just unlucky in your specific hardware combination? I did literally dozens of Ubuntu installations on very different hardware over the years. Most of the time it was a matter of minutes, and without any glitches or need for troubleshooting.
