    Somehow they buy the cheapest crap available and sell it still relatively cheap (compared to the stuff that works). But it’s still not worth even half of that. I had no idea Hama was “German” but it was on top of my list of “Never buy that crap” brands.






  • I understand that real men like you want their software to hit them in the face on start-up, and then refuse to do anything until you type SUDO, but LibreOffice UI isn’t even “good” kind of difficult. It’s not like Vim, where once you learn how to use it you become much more productive. LibreOffice is just a plain old mess. You start by selecting one of four UIs, where you need to guess which one actually works (I remember that a basic feature that I needed, after the extensive search, turned out to be unavailable in the UI that I selected at the start).









  • I downloaded Mint last week and started the installation but got cold feet when it came to drive formatting. I still want to keep my win10 operational in case I won’t be able to run something on Linux.

    I never actually used Linux before… I installed it 3 times before and always quickly went back to windows due to some compatibility or driver issues, but…

    <Rant mode=“venting”> I am NOT switching to win11… It’s enough that I am forced to use it at work. That system is so fuckin stupid… They took a lot of minor elements and just made each of them worse… I get that the sales department told you to shove OneDrive and Copilot everywhere, it’s stupid and annoying but I get it, it’s just plain old greed, but why can’t the Calendar show the whole month and don’t work on the second monitor?!? (Are you planning to add it as a paid subscription later?!?) </Rant>

    Thank you for your attention to this matter.





  • Oh, yes please!

    It would be disastrous at first, but Europe would recover much stronger than before.

    We would have to do a lot to catch up but the seeds are there and they cannot grow because they are in the shadow of the US industry.

    The US giants have money and userbase to outperform anything Europe has at the moment and when they cannot outperform some company, they buy it. If Trump ever tries to cut US Tech off, European companies would grow rapidly to fill the void.
