  • Disagree. E.g. Word typography is not as advanced as LibreOffice. And words document master is buggy as hell.

    But yes. Excel can handle big files now. Still sucks at im- and exporting different csv formats…

    But… Because it’s integrated so we’ll with windows, is faster most of the time.

    In reality: of course word should be a better program and it does get lots of loving from redmond. Only because: if no new features, no new sales. And since word is mostly a solved problem, redmond invented new problems…

    Working with a LO user and a sub par program always beats working with a word user who can’t use styles, review, and merge documents.


  • I consider myself long time noob ;)

    Fedora for me because it’s rock solid, has cutting edge software, excellent documentation.

    I,ve been updating the same installation more than 15 times i think.

    Against: selinux is often overlooked when following guides written for Debian / ubuntu. So sometimes you pull out your hair.

    On the other hand. Podman is supposedly the new favorite kid on the block. Fedora is on the front here




  • I am not sure this script will help. But I actually have a lot of cue/bin files from back when I ripped my cd collection. If I remember correctly, I played them through mediamonkey (ape files) or foobar. Windows user then… Most CD’s are either lost or in the back of the attic somewhere. I consider the files dead, but havent deleted them yet. I use plex which can’t play cue/bin files. This script might make my old cd collection come alive again…




  • On a related note? When my friend on proton send me (regular imap, openpgp) and several others (gmail, outlook) an email with all of us as recipients, it seems that proton cheats? I get to decrypt the message, where’s the others just read plain ø, unincrypted text.

    At first i thought this smart. But now i kind of realize how much of a nightmare this seems to be.

    On the other hand, i am not really sure how they do it? Is it to different mails, with fake headers? Or is it more like: if no encryption is available, show thisb (dentical) text instead?
