  • Getting in would be a piece of cake, yes. Holding it would be so increadibly hard though.

    Over 80% are against annexation. How much police officers/soldiers would be needed to keep the peace? Socially it would be a nightmare to integrate. Canada would probably retaliate with sabotage and guerilla tactics to shut down key infrastructures.

    US government would have to deal with a good portion of its own population not to mention NATO and the commonwealth members states. They could support Canada militarily, but even if they don’t there would be strong pressure and irreversible diplomatic and economic consequences. What if China and/or Russia use this as an opportunity to weaken USA while it’s busy hitting its own allies?

    I just don’t see it happening and being profitable in any shape or form. It would be a useless costly mess and needless bloodshed.















  • Hard to figure out.

    It’s much easier nowadays. I find Windows much more hard to figure out now that I’ve made the switch. At the very least, everything in Linux takes very few steps to perform tasks and install programs compared to Windows.

    Have to settle for similar but different apps.

    The sooner you do it, the faster you’ll be free. Once you do, you can be confident that said program won’t undergo enshitification since it’s open source. That said some apps can’t be replaced like Photoshop if it’s for work. I like Gimp, but I understand it’s not for everyone.

    Video drivers not built in.

    It pretty much is now if you install an Nvidia specific distro. AMD is preferable of course.

    Inconsistant bluetooth.

    Totally fair.

    Update all breaks everything.

    Use a rolling release distro like Debian or Fedora and you should be fine.

    Linux is not perfect, but it’s better than Windows. Nobody will force you to use your computer in a way you don’t want to. It’s so awesome and it’s free. There is no way I’ll ever go back to Windows. Linux is the ideal OS for so many people (especially those who go the extra mile to modify Windows heavily) they just don’t know it yet.
