The problem is education. People know how to use Windows/Microsoft products, and are too lazy to learn anything else. Saying “that other thing sucks” is easier than admitting “Idk how to use that other thing, and I’m too lazy to learn”, especially in a corporate environment where you can’t climb ladders by acknowledging your own shortcomings.
Get LibreOffice/Nextcloud/etc into schools, and the problem will be solved in a single generation.
This is why grammar is important, and “grammar nazis” are the only good kind of nazis.
I used Java years ago for Android dev, but stopped when I stopped doing that. Every once in a while I’ll get the itch to work on a new project, and always wonder if Java would be a good idea.
My hesitance is that I don’t trust Oracle (and don’t know to what extent they’re involved nowadays), I’m not familiar enough with the ecosystem to know what is legacy crap to avoid, and I think it’s generally seen as an uncool language, and I’m way too cool to be taking such risks.
GrayJay most of time asks for login because Google indicates it is a bot
Whenever it does that, I just open the Google login page and start clicking links (like the privacy policy, FAQ, reset password, etc) to “prove” that I’m human. That usually works at least for one video, if not more.
Yeah personally I much prefer Freetube’s UI over Grayjay (on desktop at least). For example, the subscription feed has an annoyingly huge list of subscribed channels that takes up like 25% of the screen real-estate, and you can’t hide it. It’s also pointless because there’s another list of your subscriptions on the left side of the screen. It also can’t be launched automatically when opening a YT link with the LibRedirect firefox extension, whereas Freetube can.
But besides design issues like that, Grayjay is much more reliable than Freetube when it comes to bypassing Youtube’s bot protections.
Wow, I thought that was just a weird bug with my system config. It actually started working a couple of weeks ago, but for the longest time I could only launch it by double-clicking it through dolphin lol
I’ll admit I only have a shallow familiarity with VLC, but I’d be surprised if it was capable of doing these things:
and how to use is safely.
Such as by disconnecting the ethernet and power cables
I’ve been trying tk get family to switch to Linux, but some are irrationally attached to MS Word. I wonder if Office 2003 will run in Wine?
These people are recruited from /pol/
Ah, so the son of George Washington Hitler became a doctor? Good for him!
What’s the rationale behind this? Is it just pandering to religious freaks, or something else?
He REALLY wants to be pope
Don’t suppose you’re in the camp wanting to disenfranchise voters, are ya skippy?
Damn, you caught me
Can you stop spamming this shit?
Without the title of this post, it’s probably easy for any non tech person to misunderstand this image as being a list of Adobe programs that spy on you, at least on first glance.
Given her age, I think it’s more likely that she’s just being fed nothing but pro-Trump propaganda in her Facebook feed. She scrolls through Facebook on her sticky phone covered in food crumbs liking boomer memes and pictures of grandchildren. If anyone knows her, the easy solution to save her from the propaganda is to sign her out of her account since she definitely doesn’t remember her password (and probably has like 3 accounts she’s made by accident)
She’s talking about angels coming from south america and africa to help trump win an election. Sounds to me like the church needs to be investigated for illegal immigration and voter fraud.
Didn’t the Trump admin suspend enforcement of foreign anti-bribery laws? Microsoft just has to write a check to the right person to kill this.
