What an effortless Troll

Yeah, I don't know any of my passwords but the one password to rule them all.

Yes, contradicting the claim that it's "more objective".

We need to tax the fuck out of the dIsRupTIve vultures called venture capitalists. The only disruption they cause is offering an existing service with extra little value returned to society and workers until the competition is dead. Then prices are raised and society gets squeezed a second time. It's fucking disgusting. The raised tax on these fuckers can then be used for public transport, amongst other things.

So, no, we don't get public transport from banning Uber doing this. But Uber wouldn't do this (or exist) if the investors of this shit company would pay their fair share and if Uber had to follow proper labor laws.

Lol Jesus would hate that, remember when he went to the Pharisees and went like

You guys fucking slay, LOVE IT

Funnily, or sadly enough, OneDrive integration is one of the things I miss from my windows days. It's just extremely convenient how it's integrated into explorer and office. And how well the smart/ on-demand sync works. I can't find a setup to replicate this on Linux.

That being said I don't intend to go back and this move is insane.

Google has a deal with reddit as well. https://www.reuters.com/technology/reddit-ai-content-licensing-deal-with-google-sources-say-2024-02-22/?utm_source=reddit.com

But I don't think it's just an issue with the dataset. It's the false promise of these LLMs having a fucking clue what a good search result is and what is not. They don't. They are just good at creating text that sounds plausible. That's not what searching for factually correct information is about though.

When the girls start to strut
You could look at their butt
You shouldn't do that
The gyal dress is just as pretty
Not just there to cover her kitty

You mean the worse they treat them the greater the greatness, right? Like Sparta, right bro?

Fair point but Linux is inherently safe either? The local library here has client PCs running Ubuntu 16.04 lts.. my point being that IT infrastructure is only ever as secure as the amount of continuous effort you put into securing it. Linux doesn't solve that.

Nah, a Chromecast with Google TV is a super cheap and reliable way to sail the high seas. Stremio, VPN, some kind of debrid service. Works better than any legal streaming service my friend told me. Not that I would ever try to hurt the poor studios.

Looks really cool but also seems like something I would get into procrastinating my actual to-dos

Mx Ergo, best of both worlds

Just use NeXtCloUD

The reality is that there is no real alternative to the office suite including outlook. That is a real problem but just using Linux is not the answer.

But it arguably lacks the physical response of a button. When in doubt you still have to look at the screen. If it has some kind of haptic feedback it might be the same.

How do you like it better than chat gpt? Isn't it the same thing?

Holy fuck I'm jealous

Yes, but I can't get the virtual file system/on-demand sync to work properly. It turn off every time I reboot. I gave up after a while since it's experimental for now anyway.

That's yeah. ... Bigger corps have people specifically organising the SharePoint (amongst other responsibilities). Tbh I don't think that's all too strange, I used to spend a couple of hours every other month sorting my personal files.

It's your prerogative to find them insufferable is what I meant to say. Your criticism and opinions are fair enough.

It's such a slippery slope I think. Yes, we all have to change our behaviour. But what does it help if I do it when the market is not regulated in a way that discourages climate damaging behaviour?
It's like, yeah, I can boycott NestlΓ©, and I do, but in the end they will push as far as legislation will let them. So my boycott is essentially meaningless beyond feeling good about myself. And it's potentially even harmful in the sense that it shifts the responsibility for change unto the individual.

How about crucifixion? Some fresh air might do you well!

Thanks! I looked at it but I would like to stop giving money to MS. So my plan is to ultimately move away from OneDrive.

Thank you! I thought was going nuts. It's been such a long time since I had think about whether something is synced or a way to set it up. With OneDrive I could just grab the files I needed from the cloud and push them off the drive if I needed space. It really took away any hassle about sync.

It really feels like moving to Linux is a step back 10 years when it comes to cloud storage.
I also tried nextcloud but the smart / on-demand/ virtual file system is experimental in the Linux client and doesn't work as seemlesly as OneDrive. Besides being turned off every time I restart.

On the Chromecast, one of the other reasons I got one. There's some localised content I get to access like that.

I considered a VPN on the router but a) the router provided by our ISP doesn't support that, so it would be another investment and b) I didn't want to introduce a potential point of headache for when I'm not around. I.e. my non tech savvy partner having trouble with the VPN.

eM Client is the absolute best I've ever used.

I'll have to give a go on my old ThinkPad yoga 12.

Can I ask what you're using? I tried virt-manager with a win 10 installation and it barely works. Granted an i5 5200U is not beefy by any means but at 100% CPU usage everything just stutters.

I would switch in a heartbeat if MS office would be on Linux. I have tried all alternatives, including MS office online and I always encounter some kind of formatting fuck up. That's just not acceptable for my job.

MS knows this of course.

It's a shitty Synology Nas with extreme slow speeds. That's only amplified by slow upload speeds when I'm not in my local network.

The main difference, and that's also the difference to the way Gnome handles cloud storage like GDrive, is that I don't want a network storage. I want integration into my file system, and I want automatic upload of what I'm working on. And I want the ability to say: this directory needs to be available offline. Without having to copy it from my nas to local storage and back again.

Excellent, I'll have a look at it. Thank you!

The client works fine, it's just the virtual file system option that turns off after a reboot.

Bro such a great idea!! Like a long city in the dessert, like a line, bro, like this line right here, like it'll totally, fucking climate change, like it's the future, I swear, the most insane, just imagine the internet, in like, it's a line, and, hear me out, it's in the dessert, that'll show that we don't, like, it's not just oil and patria-, bro like get the black AMEX r.e.a.d.y., I need the concierge service to deliver me some fucking Canadian lobster up this bitch right now,

That's a dick way of saying fuck off but I mean they do provide a free service. If they have a vision and don't want to deal with random people whining about it that's their prerogative. Same as yours to find that utterly insufferable.

I don't know, I'm not a political or diplomatic expert. But they took a bunch of hostages, made demands that they know will never be met by the Israeli government and won't move away from them. On the other hand the Israeli government has been shitting on them for years, invaded their territory, makes impossible demands, and won't move away from them either. Neither of them is right. But from the outside it doesn't look like either party is really interested in a ceasefire.

Note my comment is not about which party is morally right. An issue I, by the way, don't really feel equipped to give a definite answer to either. But suffice to say I don't sympathise with the murder of civilians neither by the IDF nor by Hamas.
