- Comment on What are some FOSS programs that are objectively better than their proprietary counterparts? 5 weeks ago:
I agree with so much that has been said here. VLC, Linux as a whole (or GNU/Linux, if you are such enclined) and many more. Obsidian is sadly not open source but its free and it’s absolutely amazing!
What I haven’t found yet is a FOSS (or even just “free as in beer”) replacement for MS Project. I want to plan out a top level view of what we have to do as a team to reach some goal, assign multiple team members to one “task”, allocate a set amount of their time and see at what times we might be over or under capacity. The FOSS planing tools I’ve seen mostly work in “shifts” or let you assign one task to one person. But we’re in R&D and if I plan for 40 hours of “conceptual work” over the span of a month and assign Sarah and Steve to this with 20 hours each I don’t want to babysit their shifts. They will do the work when it suits them.
The only one I’ve seen that could do what I need is ProjectLibre but the FOSS desktop version has been abandoned a while ago and is still very buggy.
Sorry for placing this here but maybe someone knows something…

That’s the question. Are they dumb and mean it or are they just assholes? I also tend to think it’s the second.

Oh yeah, absolutely. “self regulation” of businesses is just BS.
- Comment on Coca-Cola accused of quietly dropping its 25% reusable packaging target 5 months ago:
Never ever believe companies when they make promises like “we will have x by date y”. Especially if date y is further away than maybe the end of the year. Shell also made big promises and then quietly dropped them. Of course the making of the promise came with a big PR budget. The dropping of the plans was silent. Weird how that works…

He still doesn’t know what’s in the secret sauce though.
- Comment on M4 Mac Mini Power Button Has New Bottom Location 6 months ago:
I also at first thought it’s not that bad, because it looks like the main part of the computer is “hovering”, because it stands on that round portion. But then I saw that the button is on the backside! Why? That way you have to reach around everything, making it impossible to fit the thing into some smaller space and still use it. If it was on the bottom but in the front you would still have your beloved button-less design but the button would still be pretty accessible.
