https://www.visidata.org/ is way, way, way, way better than excel and it’s FOSS.

As for the rest:

• I don’t really miss Word because WYSIWYG editing is just kinda bad across the board. Much better to write with markup rather than fighting an auto-formatter all the time.
• I thankfully have not needed to make much of any PowerPoints, but I think I would probably feel similarly about them and want them in some kind of markup language as well.
• Teams just sucks ass compared to many other alternatives, though I’m admittedly not familiar with good FOSS ones
• Outlook is basically just a dinosaur and there’s a million ways to do email better. Frankly, FOSS has it beat by a huge margin

The rest of Office isn’t really even worth talking about tbh.

For excel stuff, https://www.visidata.org/ is way, way better than excel assuming the data is tabular (which, frankly, it should be anyway). Like it’s not even close.

Way, way better than excel for working with tabular data. Excel is child’s play in comparison.

I’m no chef but… smoked paprika? Sounds like it could fit the bill, maybe.

I just… don’t connect the TV to the internet. Never had an issue with anything like that.

I’m honestly not so sure, they are really clueless when it comes to technology.

There’s plenty of racism around, but I wouldn’t worry about it as tourists. What you read about is the general systemic problems related to living here in the day to day. That’s pretty different from visiting as a tourist. As a tourist, you’re pretty unlikely to experience anything like that.

My wife and I think it is. I took her last name since it meant more to her.

It’s delusional to think he was ever going to do anything but accelerate the genocide.

Incidentally, also terrorist-supporrinf organizations.

Oh I’m sure, wasn’t saying otherwise. The whole thing is a joke.

I believe it’s saying that the drive-thru was open but the restaurant interior was closed.

I actually tend to drop off my mail ballots at the local library drop box.

They’re not wrong. Randomness in computing is what we call “pseudo-random” in that it is deterministic provided that you start from same state or “seed”.

I find it highly overrated in terms of productivity in general, particularly when writing anything remotely non-trivial/company-specific.

There’s also the absolutely massive issue of licensing/IP/etc. Any company that’s not full of dumbasses should recognize the massive risk and liability involved and stay the fuck away.

Sure, just like businesses have always wanted “no-code” solutions to their problems to cut out the need for software engineers. We all know how that turned out. There was no threat then, and there’s no threat now.

So tired of this rhetoric. AI isn’t replacing any software engineering jobs, nor could it. It’s a joke, quite frankly.

Yep. It has a population of 24,967. As someone who has been there multiple times, it’s quite small. NE Nebraska is just not very populated in general.

It’s because they want to incentivize long-term, stable relationships and households because doing so statistically leads to better outcomes for society. The barrier to entry for getting divorced is quite high, so in general people tend to stay together more often if they are married than if they are not.

That all being said, the system is far from perfect for sure. Incentivizing marriages also incentivizes people to stay in bad marriages, among other issues

What the fuck are you talking about? No one downloads software from GitHub on Linux unless they’re doing some really fringe, custom shit. Linux users detest randomly downloaded software from the internet (which is effectively the ONLY way of getting software on Windows, btw). We want all software to be managed by our package managers.

Also, lol on “software purchase”. What software are you buying on Linux?
