No that's perfect, I love to post shit like this in a variety of places. Thanks.

I will do that. I use gnumeric all the time for small CSVs because of the quick startup, but I haven't tried it on large files recently. Last time I did, it didn't acquit itself well, but I will give it another go. When I'm doing this it's really always CSVs, and I'm just trying to massage some data slightly before I import it somewhere. I finally resorted to just writing perl, but it was to do things that would have been faster to do in a spreadsheet if it didn't crater.

Why do you imagine that it is crap? Every expert disagrees with you.

Aww you're so cute. Dumb, but cute.

You think you can be sure you've disabled all of that functionality.

Those are certainly all letters, but they don't prevent international espionage.

Some of us are just smart enough to call a fascist a fascist, and just dumb enough to do it, too. But you're dumb enough to deep throat the boot.

I will continue to resist this regime as long as I am able, because failure to do so is how to be destroyed by it.

I implemented portsentry feeding fail2ban on edge servers to deal with the unrelenting scans.

It helps, somewhat.

"more"

Yes. I put my lady on Linux and she had zero questions about changes. She's not a computer nerd, either. Everything works like she expects.

Almost everything has political ramifications.

Choosing to underpin your entire computing infrastructure with systems made by an untrustworthy foreign nation which are well known to be spyware, especially so.

Appeal to popularity is a logical fallacy

I'm on Linux. So, nope.

Yup, but now the AI lobby is stronger than the oil lobby.

I guess whichever the military needs more.

There are some videos online with sound.

Do we hear the engines?

Hopefully an airplane enthusiast who is familiar with the expected sound profile can comment.

I wish my company would do this.
Yes, I realize there are some tiny niche-functions that the open source products don't serve but 99.9% of people probably don't need them anyway and my god I'm sick of MS's constant tweaking of things and now shoveling AI shit at me.

Great, interesting new science expected.
I'm particularly interested to see if the Sun also exhibits the 'hexagons at poles' structures like Jupiter and Saturn.

You mean spend billions to save millions?

I'm not faithful to any software, and I use LO for almost everything. But sometimes I try to load a big CSV into Calc for massaging and it crashes. Then I load the same file into Excel and it's fine, and not even slow. They clearly need to do fundamental work on Calc. Writer is already superior to Word in this regard, so this is not a blanket complaint about LO.
