- Comment on Being afraid of vaccines is literally childish behavior. 6 days ago:
There are risks involved with vaccines. These are usually low and can be mitigated or decreased severely. E.g. don’t run a marathon the same day you get a COVID-19 shot.

Not that I know.
Depending on your exact needs a more specialized tool like SmartSheets or AirTable (browser based, subscription) can be good. WPS office is a little better than Calc in some ways, but no full replacement for Excel.

LibreOffice Writer has eaten comments on documents several times for me. Word handles comments much better.

Exactly. Excel is the workhorse. The combo between Exchange and Outlook is the other major major strength of MS Office.

Microsoft products can be quite good, but you’re right that they are severely hampered by boneheaded decisions.
Microsoft Office is still very good overall. Definitely one of Microsoft’s better products. The ribbon UI was revolutionary and is still great.
The Mac version of Microsoft Office is also a good example of how good and bad versions alternate. Office for Mac 98 was terrible. Office for Mac 2004 was great and and in many ways better than the windows version. 2008 dropped support for Visual Basic. 2011 reintroduced it. Microsoft’s email client for the Mac changed between Outlook, Entourage, then Outlook again with various changes and supporting different features.
My favorite versions of Microsoft operating systems are: DOS 5, Windows 3.1, NT 4, 98, XP, 7, 10, Phone 8.
I’m still mad Microsoft canceled their fantastic flight simulator.

There are Mercator projection maps with the Americas in the center and Japan on the left edge of the map.
Most maps, regardless of projection used, cut the world through the pacific because there’s barely any land. World maps centering the Americas cut through Central Asia, making them less practical for many applications.
All map projections try to flatten a curved surface. That only works with cuts and distortions. They are all trade-offs between conserving area, angles, shapes, distances. It’s impossible to to all of that.

The instance matters if you post about anything political. If your instance admins don’t like your posts, they will delete your account. Mods and admins of other instances can only ban you.

- Comment on Valve confirm the Steam Machine will be priced like a PC with similar specs, rather than a console 5 weeks ago:
Valve is insanely profitable and makes money with every game sold on Steam. Selling the Steam Cube at cost would make financial sense for them over the long run.

There are a couple of these African car manufacturers now, that assemble kit cars from China. It’s a good step towards more domestic industry in African countries.

- Comment on 220-ton flywheel generator in Germany 1 month ago:
The electric energy needed by the ASDEX Upgrade fusion experiment to power its magnetic field coils and plasma heating facilities is supplied by large flywheel generators. An experimentation pulse in ASDEX Upgrade requires an electric power of 400 megawatts lasting 10 seconds, i.e. half as much as the whole district of Munich. Such an abrupt grid load is not permissible; so the electric energy for ASDEX Upgrade cannot be taken directly from the grid. Instead the flywheel generators gradually take the energy needed from the grid, store it and then pass it on to ASDEX Upgrade in a single pulse.
