Oh, I just figured that a portable version of an isolated OS would be a decent alternative. Bit you’re right maybe a bit too much
They don’t realise they won’t be ministers for ever.
I would like to know how these politicians feel about being surveilled 24/7? Because they aren’t excluded.
You could try Qubes OS? Portable version maybe? That’s quite easy and sucure.
It’s a societal problem.

People should take their trash home. It’s great for awareness.
I bought a Rockwell safety razor for 50 euros after using a cheap 20 euro version for a while. The Rockwell is much better. Heavier, better grip and a reversible base plate for different settings. 50 euros should do and still is much cheaper than my cartridges.
PS: wit good prep I have no rasor burn. A cheap brush, warm water and cheap shaving soap. The soap lasts me nearly half a year.

They started out with sort of a ‘fail forward’ approach where as German entities were encouraged to try and implement different types of open source software of OS’es. Those experiments have led to a broader understanding and in the meantime they funded the greater project that became OpenDesk.
This year they joined forced with the French government where the were doing the same sort of project with La Suite. The French and the German team joined in a 100 day sprint to deliver somewhere around September.
And I forgot to mention that the French government is on board as well.
They on their side are launching La Suite which is based on the same building block as OpenDesk.

Some figures for those wondering how broadly adapted this open source suite is.
Tchap: the trusted instant messaging service for the public sector used daily by 200,000 users. An extension of the Albert AI tool is planned for Tchap soon, during the summer.
State audio conference with nearly 8,000 users for 700 weekly meetings (2024 figure as of mid-May).
State web conference with 47,000 users for 10,000 weekly meetings (2024 figure as of mid-May).
State webinar: the webinar service which can accommodate up to 350 participants, public officials and interlocutors from outside the State (from the public, private or associative sectors) has recorded more than 800,000 users for 65,000 meetings weekly (2024 figure as of mid-May).
France transfer: the simple and secure solution for sending large files with 140,000 users having exchanged more than 350,000 letters (2024 figure as of mid-May).
Resana, a public sector collaborative platform with 140,000 users and nearly 800,000 documents shared/month (2024 figure as of mid-May).
Sleswich-Holstein is one of the first states to ditch Microsoft.
You have to know that all of this takes time. They’ve decided to follow this path in 2022 and were aiming for the first results to appear in 2025.
Two weeks ago ZenDis launched OpenDesk 1.0. https://www.openproject.org/blog/sovereign-workplace/
Are you sure?
Just about two weeks ago they launched OpenDesk.

Element chat is integrated in this suite and is allready vastly used by the federal government, the army,…
I think no government anywhere else has embraced open source as much as Germany does.
The are building their sovereign cloud and different states, Schools, government departments, hospitals… are joining.
They’ve put their money where their mout is by creating a sovereign tech fund.

They move slowly, as governments do, but they have a goal and a plan. It’s not easy to switch and running contracts have to reach the end of their term but when these contracts are over the move will be huge.
Sneakily adds an alfabethical sort option to that request.
Your tv is a monitor. Treat it as such.
Element X is fast Indeed.
There are more cool organisations that use Element.
It’s more a Skype alternative at the moment though.
I’m in middle management so I get my own office. I never use it because being alone in a quiet office makes me lose track of time. I perform better on the noisy platform with all the other colleagues and it doesn’t matter whether they are working or just chatting or taking a break. It’s just the presence of other people that keeps me picking myself up.
My wife won’t get it but I always have one earbud in one of my ears playing a podcast or audiobook. It makes it easier to get chores done. She hates it because I’m not immediately available all the time but it just works.
I’ve got diagnosed at age 26, now 16 years ago. This was after a whole set of tests, spread over days with observation included. You need a professional because there is so much involved.
Everybody’s different so even though articles and YouTube videos on the subject may seem recognisable, sometimes they also describe stuff that I don’t experience.
There is no hyperactivity on the surface but that doesn’t mean there is no hyperactivity at all. I for an instance became very well at hiding and suppressing the ‘H’ in ADHD. So much that even to me it seems like there’s nothing there.
So, get tested by a professional. When’ you get diagnosed, see how that can work for you. I for an instance had poor results in high school but graduated magna cum laude in law school four years ago.
Being diagnosed made me look for alternative ways of organising my life and made me more successful. At least it made me understand myself.
