Oh man. You’re right, of course. I somehow forgot that we were looking at a meme.

So, uh… that’s not the diet of worms this article is referring to.

Yeah I daily drive debian stable.

With flatpaks and docker I never run into problems with my applications being too old or whatever.

Guy, everyone operates off their own limited experience.

LibreOffice has user defined functions that work just fine. You’re just illustrating my point really.

It sounds like you’re talking the ability of ms office products to open documents authored by libreoffice.

Our local library is amazing.

There’s a huge area to sit and read, or work, or for groups et cetera. The view from there down the main street to the harbour is fantastic.

There’s also a separate area which is accessible to students 24 hours. You show them your enrolment and they give you an access card.

Honestly I’m really proud of our local library.

I have no way to evaluate whether these claims are true. Pretty much verbatim what people say about libreoffice.

Can I ask your perspective on the comments here saying that Krita and Inkscape just aren’t comparable to their commercial alternatives?

The reason is… I’m not a professional graphic designer, I have a small consultancy with several staff and work with documents and spreadsheets all day.

Occasionally I encounter similar threads discussing the difference between LibreOffice and Microsoft Office, and the comments are all the same. So many people saying LibreOffice just “isn’t there yet”, or that it might be ok for casual use but not for power users.

But as someone who uses LibreOffice extensively with a broad feature set I’ve just never encountered something we couldn’t do. Sure we might work around some rough edges occasionally, but the feature set is clearly comparable.

My strongly held suspicion is that it’s a form of the dunning-kruger effect. People have a lot of experience using software-A so much so that they tend to overlook just how much skill and knowledge they have accumulated with that specific software. Then when they try software-B they misconstrue their lack of knowledge with that specific software as complexity.

Well it makes people feel like they’ve done something.

Australian’s want to drive everywhere too.

There’s a fairly commonly held distaste for cyclists here.

We don’t have these things instead of a drive-everywhere culture. We have them in addition to that.

I live in a small Australian city.

There are 100s of kms of beaches, most with free BBQs and showers.

100s of kms of walks, hikes, bike paths.

There’s mountain bike stuff, skate parks, dirt jumps, basketball courts, soccer fields, lakes.

There’s loads of parks. Some of them have heaps of stuff for kids.

We have a village square also. Just a bigbgrass area in the city with free WiFi and often events and things.

All of these things are public spaces with no expectation of spending money. My city isn’t unusual in Australia.

That’s what I was thinking.

Nothing wrong with boobs, but why put them on your tailgate?

I have a penchant for deliberately mispronounced words. IDK why.

Lately I’ve enjoyed mispronounced the -ain suffix, as in mountain or fountain, to rhyme with stain.

Oh man. Thankyou. That was kinda messing with me.

If you flip it around the picture makes more sense.

That said, the quality is so bad it’s impossible to say what that thing actually is, but the only thing I can think of that fits that size and shape and color is a bag or pouch or toiletries and cosmetics or something.

Could this be a snaps thing?

I despise snaps and left Ubuntu for that reason. I don’t remember the specifics but I think even after installing firefox with apt it somehow get’s magically switched to a snap.

I daily drive debian on a t490s and it’s rock solid. There’s just no way anyone could consider this set up unstable.

In recent years I’ve found most of my problems come from the fancy new packages. In order of reliability I find that it goes apt > .dev > AppImage > flatpak > snap

Just copying my other comment…

There’s a community for pondering this question.

The consensus is that Nicole is actually being harassed.

If you follow the links there’s no one to talk to but in the topic for the matrix room or something it says where she works.

So it’s something like creepy weirdo is spamming everyone with her photo in the hope that creeps from lemmy go hit on her at her work.

I just logged in to check /r/audiobooks.

The sponsored thingies are intolerable. Fuck that.

Well, you don’t need containers for wireguard the same way you don’t need containers for anything.

I personally prefer docker containers for everything that can be containerised because it provides a consistent abstraction layer. As in, I always know how to find configurations and paths and manage network infrastructure for anything that resides in a container.

In the case I outlined above with the wireguard containers, I’m more confident I’m not going to upset any other services on my server, and I understand the configuration.

Maybe it’s a bit like using ufw to manage iptables rules, unnecessary but helpful.

Of course, I freely admit that my way is not necessarily the best way and if someone wants to run wireguard on the host then great.
