According to her, it didn’t work. I have no idea what macros those are, and in all honesty, I don’t care either, as I don’t have to do it (I know that’s a douche comment, but here we are). As long as I’m not the one hack g to deal with that crap, I’m not even asking. At the end of the day, that’s all she uses that laptop for, the rest is either company hosted or self hosted and she can use it all on her phone or tablet when she’s out and about or in her PC when I get home the office.

Only Office and LibreOffice do, I but the macros used by our tax authority completely break there, so she’s left with the excel option alone.

Nice. Thanks. I’ll install it in a Proxmox LXC.

That thing hasn’t been maintained for almost 3 years.

Reddit has been ruined for a while now, this is just it getting worse.

Lol.

That was the one Distro that appealed to my wife enough for her to allow me to switch her Windows in her work PC. Now she hates to have to go to her windows laptop to do some taxes shit in our country every month because they only allow excel.

A ‘smart toilet’? What the hell does a toilet need to be smart for? And then, cherry on top, toilet and camera in the same sentence. The world needs to end.

They’re still allowing you to hold back updates? So nice of them.

Same here (except I’m 35 years into being a tech hobbyist, not a professional), and I’ve never reimaged a Linux install (except to try imaging it and learn how it works). Having been exclusively on Linux for 9 years now (playing with it for over 20 years) and Fedora the last 6, I can confidently say that it’s easier to just keep your important files in a separate drive (home directory in its own drive for example) and just reinstall whatever you want if you end up breaking your OS. Reimaging seems way more convoluted.

Bloated servers. Now I’ve heard it all. Thanks for bringing that out, all we hear is ‘windows this and windows that’ but it seems the cancer in Microsoft has metastasized to everything.

I’m not much of a gamer, not because I don’t like to game, but because I’m old and have little time for it. That has made Fedora Workstation my preferred desktop/laptop OS for the last 6 years or so. Maybe that’s the reason why I just can’t understand why people keep putting up with Microsoft’s bullshit.

I have tried Endeavour about 4 times over the years, but in trying to ‘make it my own’ I always end up breaking it badly and come back to Fedora for a stable few months before going on a distro-hop riot all over again. Linux certainly is a lovely drug to be hooked on 😁

This is every single ‘smart device’ out there. The way I was able to block everything in 2 Roborocks at home was by setting them up in Home Assistant over Matter, blocking everything and using it from HA only (us the schedules, those remain in the robots). It’s less than convenient allowing it access to the update servers once per month to see if there’s any and then blocking it again, but it’s something.

We’re preparing our ‘smart home’ for our new house that’s not finished yet by choosing only devices that are matter over wifi (not thread) so that I can set it all up to work locally ove Home Assistant. That, in my opinion, is the best way to keep some convenience while shutting those assholes out.

… FUCK THE DMCA!

What did I win?

Nope, them attempting to use Recuva leads me to believe they did not have backups.

And as a developer, I’m assuming the guy was following the 321 rule, right? https://media.tenor.com/Z78LoEaY9-8AAAAM/seth-meyers-right.gif

I’m pretty fucked then, because I was one of those that was waiting until 2026 to build a new rig.

My thoughts exactly.

Nobody can blame anyone but MicroShit for dumping MicroShit.

Could be, but there are plenty of DAWs out there.
