Glad I switched, fully, to #Linux a few months ago. I'm not a programmer or techie, and struggled with Linux in the past, but compared to a decade ago, the installation was really easy & it the user interface has improved dramatically.
@Matt_Noyes Good question! I think I just felt their installation guide and UI to be the most user-friendly for my personal level of comfort with tech.
#AmericanAirlines#twitter support (which is fantastic) is literally the only reason I am still on the #birdsite. I haven't posted in over a year, never check it, but have DMed AA regularly.
Their app, chat, phone, website, all shit. Couldn't even order a veg meal, but Twitter support fixed it in minutes.
#Wise customers are now expected to consent to retention and disclosure to partners of #biometric facial information for up to a year simply to continue using their accounts, and even when not required by local financial regulations.
@tokyo_0 I do have a Sony bank account too, but haven't yet taken advantage of the multiple currency functions much. Since I get paid from clients in many countries, Wise has been pretty essential.
The real secret to great #espresso in the home isn't the espresso machine itself - I mean, look at my posts today, showing what a $250 machine can do. The true secret is a great grinder.
We have our choices for the best budget grinders available today. If you're in the market, this is your guide.
#ICQ will turn off soon. I grew up with it’s weird aoooo and still know my quite long ID by heart. It was sensational, in contrast to the other, hacky (also cool) #IRC.
It was the first DM app I and everyone around me used and loved. #WhatsApp never came close.
If you got upset at me for pointing out that more people died of Covid under Biden than Trump, in large part because Biden rolled back common sense restrictions that were in place under Trump...
Then you'll hate me pointing out that Trump introduced a 25% tariff on Chinese EVs, and Biden is upping that to 100% tariff.
Until we can call out #humanrights violations anywhere, I think we'll continue to fail to address either #climate or historical injustices. Giving one country a pass because they produce more #EVs or have more solar panels is merely kicking the can down the road.
Does #Microsoft#Word no longer allows people to open .ODT files? Have, a few times, had to safe .ODT files as .DOCX via LibreOffice so that Word users could open it.
.ODT is an open source file format, so its a deliberate choice for Word to not be compatible.
Why do people pay for a shitty product that lacks such basic functionality?
@jkn@helma@gombang@fmy me neither! I'll consider it, I feel like Microsoft, for some reason, escapes a lot of scrutiny compared to the other tech giants.
