Frivolous? Yes. Fun? 😬😬😬

No one knows how to read a sextant any more. The horror!!

Analog clocks are not really essential technology.

A screwdriver doesn’t become a bad screwdirver just because someone is using it to drive nails. There is a lot to hate about Microsoft, but its basic Office tools are really quite good, when used in the manner in which they were designed. There really are no meaningful competitors for Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Outlook as an email client is not great, but its strength is calendaring.

Word is not horrible as a word processor. The issue is that people try to use it to do typesetting, reference management, and all kinds of non word processor shit. And Microsoft encourages this. If you understand what the tool does it’s really a decent tool.

Not to my understanding?

I’ve been trying to find a search engine that doesn’t use AI for this very reason, but with little luck. Any suggestions?

No mixed feelings at all. I am unequivocally sad that we lost Richard Simmons today 😢😢😢

It’s stupid because they don’t understand probability and risk assessment. Yeah there are side effects but they are exceedingly rare and even if you get them the outcomes are usually far less severe than the disease you’re trying to prevent. It’s like saying “I refuse to wear a seat belt because it might wrinkle my suit jacket.”

I would love to learn how to block YouTube ads with a proxy. Do you have a link to instructions?

The cake is a lie.

This is not distro specific advice but: when starting out you can use a virtual machine like VMware to test drive Linux without having to repartition your drive. VMware is free for individual non commercial use.

Still the best Xmas movie ever

Idk about that. I’ve met “Native Americans” who prefer the term Indian over Native American.

For work the only thing that holds me back from using Linux is Office 365. The web apps for O365 are just not up to par for anything other than the most basic tasks.

Which was the fashion of the time…
