    You are correct, see my other comment.

    If you read the resolution and the answers of national governments why they abstained, the answer is found in points 4 and 14 of the resolution, where everyone who fought against the anti-Hitler coalition is condemned and equivocated with nazi-sympathisers. This does include people who opportunistically fought againt the Red Army in the baltic states and Ukraine for national liberation from the USSR, but not necessarily on the german side.

    This resolution is a veiled attemp to paint even the people who fought against Russia for freedom from the USSR but not for Germany as part of the Nazi movements in Soviet states that did fight for Germany.

    Yes, some of those “national liberation fighters” were absolute shitbag nazi scum, but not all of them were and history is generally more complex than just good and bad.

    There was a movement to restrict those two points to language that does not automatically include these anti-soviet forces among the ranks of the nazis, but the changes were not adopted.

    Some politicians posit the hypothesis that the resolution was worded in such a way through russian string pulling, because they wanted to be able to paint every anti-russian fighter in the time of the second world war as pro-Hitler.

    Did you know:

    Whales don’t have to strain to hold their breath, they have no drowning-reflex and don’t breath automatically, they can only breath consciously. So while land mammals usually will start gasping for air when still underwater for too long. Whales will not.

    This means whales don’t drown (because drowning means inhaling water), they rather asphyxiate underwater if they can not reach the surface.



  • depends on your Distro, for Linux Mint it’s just the Driver Manager.

    To access the Driver Manager in Linux Mint, follow these steps:

    1. Click on the Menu (Taskbar) in the lower-left corner of your screen.
    2. Navigate to Administration.
    3. Click on Driver Manager.

    Load Device Manager for Nvidia Drivers on Linux Mint

    Once you have opened the Driver Manager, follow these steps to install the Nvidia drivers:

    1. The Driver Manager will prompt you for your password. Enter your password and click on Authenticate.
    2. The Driver Manager will scan your system for available drivers. Once the scanning is complete, you will see a list of available drivers for your graphics card.
    3. Select the recommended Nvidia driver from the list.
    4. Click on Apply Changes to start the installation process.

    Then reboot.

    source

    For most problems you can really just google stuff like “Linux Mint Nvidia Drivers”
