»Parser library using nom for VB6 (projects, forms, designers, etc).
VB6Parse aims to be a complete, end-to-end parser library for VB6. Including.«

It was a very, very, very long time ago when I had to extend and correct VisualBasic code, now I can also do it via Rust. Admittedly, the project is very young and I don't want to have to use it, but I understand why it exists.

Fifth month of using #ubuntu #linux for my daily work driver which includes lots of #msoffice work as well as plugging into several different types of usb-a and usb-c hubs in office spaces, connecting displays, webcams and mics. It all just works. Except for that one #displaylink screen which required me to install a driver from a download site.

I remember toying with Red Hat 5 circa 1998. #FOSS truly has come a long way.

Как тебе такое Microsoft :blobfoxnerd:
В ответ на появление sudo в Windows разработчики сообщества свободного ПО решили перенести Word в OpenBSD.
На этот шаг ментейнеры проекта и последователи Тео де Раадта пошли из-за претензий по поводу попытки Microsoft сделать свою версию sudo для Windows 11 без предварительного согласования своих действий с разработчиками оригинальной утилиты.

Как отмечает Тео де Раадт (создатель OpenBSD):

Cделать это нужно также, как и в Microsoft:

1. Не обращать внимания на путаницу в именах.

2. Не заботиться о совместимом поведении.

3. Не заботиться о товарных знаках или де-факто товарных знаках.

4. Не спрашивать первоначальные продуктовые команды, все ли в порядке.

As much as I love retro computing and emulation, but installing Microsoft Word 97 from 19!!! disks still feels a bit like a chore.

Note from Microsoft: “Users may experience delays of up to 30 minutes receiving messages in Microsoft Teams for any connection method.”

So much for “instant messaging.” #Teams #Microsoft #MSOffice
