It’s also sad that Nextcloud with their pile of hot PHP garbage seem zo be the ony viable option (apart from selfhosting) when looking for an alternative to OneDrive.

ROMANI ITE DOMVM

This website has one of the most malicious pseudo cookie banners I have seen so far. I wonder why they are doing this at all, because it’s illegal where sich an Option is required and useless in all other places

Leaning out of a window

Consumerism, Fanboyism and a feeling of superiority. In Germany Apple had a much smaller market share than in the US and people liked to show off that they can afford a Mac.

Slightly incorrect. Anyone identifying with Nazi ideology is a Nazi. There are genuine American Neonazis for example.

There, saved you a long read

Any Tipps on how to do that in a business environment? Preferably from people who are actually using Linux in a professional environment? I’m using Linux at home for more than a decade now, and I don’t miss Windows at all, but transforming a smallish company to use Linux in a way that is remotely as comfortable as the Windows stuff seems impossible for now. I need to find solutions that don’t make it harder for our staff to get their work done, because they are busy enough with actual work.

Simply replacing MS Office with LibreOffice and Nextcloud for example does not cut it. The tight integration of MS Teams, Office and Cloud functionality is seen as a huge benefit there and I can’t just take that away from them unless I find a combination of tools that work in a similar fashion. Using Google products instead is obviously not a viable alternative. Every cloud based solution I have found so far is underwhelming at best and lacks a good integration.

Serious answers appreciated.

I just saw your post during a meeting and I’m about to apply this mantra now

Heroic effort, nonetheless

Always has been. “We cannot afford x any more” has been their standard argument for dismantling social security and lining up their own pockets for decades now.

Great question! I’m in the same boat, want to leave the tech sector entirety, after 25+ years of software development. I’m not happy about the direction tech is going for a while now. All the enshittification and forced AI bullshit makes me want to leave.

However as I defined myself as a tech enthusiast all my life I find it hard to reinvent myself. What other skills do I have? I can make some really good coffee. But apart from that? Idk

Only if you still use the obsolete Gregorian calendar. Linux support for this was dropped as well

Similar to the crypto hype. Adoption is imminent, bro. Just a few more months, bro. Please, bro

I personally try to reverse smartphone usage. Got myself a dumbphone and try to use a computer for everything else. The reasoning behind this is, I want it to be a conscious decision to do internet things at a defined physical place, instead of mindlessly using the smartphone everywhere. This should encourage me to reconnect to the world around me.

I’m still in a transition phase though.

Hello??

You can just use powershell. It’s that easy. /s

Ding dong the witch is dead. I remember that. Good Times.
