Merci #Microsoft pour tous ces efforts que vous déployez sans relâche depuis tant d'années pour me faire détester #MicrosoftWindows (et #MicrosoftOffice, soit dit en passant) et aimer profondément GNU/Linux et les #LogicielsLibres en général. Franchement, bravo et merci ! Continuez comme ça

On June 26th ( two days ago ) PewDiePie ( who I believe needs no introduction ) released another video in his liberation saga. This time titled I'm DONE with Google. In this video he goes over his process of getting "de-google-efied", or as he clarifies toward the end of the video, his process of getting rid of his reliance on B...

#Windows11 collects a lot of data, by default!
This includes browsing and location history, lists of connected devices, typed, handwritten and spoken content, and much more, all sent back to #Microsoft
If you didn't know, now you know.
Reason 10 To Choose Linux
Linux is more private, by default
Own and control your data!
Your operating system won't record your key strokes or dictation, collect lists of devices and their Wi-Fi details, or webcams, printers and anything else plugged in and then send that back to Big Tech HQ.
It's possible to avoid data collection altogether, from the start.
With #Linux YOU decide how to share YOUR data.

It took me a few days to upgrade my Mastodon since it required some self-inflicted yak shaving to upgrade my very old version of Ubuntu.
Kagi searches reveal that lots of people have this problem, so here's how I upgraded my very old #Ubuntu to the latest LTS release.

Aggiornamenti Automatici? Sì, Grazie!
Per vari motivi mi tocca usare Powerpoint 365 per un progetto.
È la decima volta (per arrotondare) che mi segnala un problema ogni volta che modifico del testo in una casella (su caratteri differenti eh).
Per modificare una riga sto combattendo da 10 minuti. "Si è verificato un problema, riprovare più tardi." e sotto il tasto aggiorna.
Non lo uso mai fortunatamente, torno dopo anni per colpa di altrз, e noto le stesse puttanate di sempre e poi mi viene in mente chi mi diice "no, ma office 365 è il migliore, come si fa senza?"
Sarà... io senza lavoro benissimo.
Torno su OnlyOffice, dove l'ho fatta tutta senza un cazzo di problema, e poi la carico e la invio da lì.
Ciao Microsoft, noto sempre con piacere che il tuo "ottimo software" non mi serve a un bel niente e sono felice della scelta (etica e tecnica) che ho fatto 25 anni fa.
P.S. Microsoft è nel BDS, giusto per...

Does anyone know of any #FreeSoftware implementations of the #RCS encrypted messaging protocol? There is the nine year old
https://github.com/android-rcs/rcsjta I wonder if that is usable?
@cadey 1/n Looking at what FSF are rationalizing to call your middleware "malware" (despite yours are #freesoftware if I'm not wrong), probably it wouldn't help if you change the challenges to letting training a tiny #machinelearning models (data and answers generated from a distribution from server), graphic-based challenges, web workers,... #FSF still think you're still letting the users running unwanted software.
LibreOffice recently got Markdown file support! But know what's still missing? A 100% perfect bug-free user experience
And that's what we are around for!
Today, in about 45 minutes, I'll be #livestreaming bugfixes on #LibreOffice for #BugsDoneQuick — my attempt to rid the FOSS world of as many papercut issues over the week as I can

Deluxe Draw is dangerously nearing a threshold of actual practical utility as it now saves files AND retrieves them, with multiple layers.
I'm busy with a big UI rework, adding actual menus, so that it's not all buttons cluttered everywhere.
No GTK! No QT!
