Funny what happens when you have a government that actually gives a shit.
- Comment on public services of an entire german state switches from Microsoft to open source (Libreoffice, Linux, Nextcloud, Thunderbird) 3 days ago:
It’s really not though. Most of what you can do with Office can be done with other tools, you just have to learn how to use them.

There are several CM tools already available. Chef, Puppet, Ansible, Salt, etc. Just pick one.

I also work for the state and it’s pretty discouraging how MS has us by the balls on everything. Every application we use is written in VB.net or Visual C# which also depend on running on a Windows server. Switching to Linux would be a nightmare and cost millions for no real gain.

They will when the choice is work or starve.
- Comment on OpenAI's move to allow generating "Ghibly stlye" images isn't just a cute PR stunt. It is an expression of dominance and the will to reject and refuse democratic values. It is a display of power 2 months ago:
AI does not know or create anything. Without stolen training data what would your fancy LLM actually be able to do?

Everybody should leave X.
- Comment on Vivaldi, now with added VPN 2 months ago:
For some reason I don’t trust any of these VPNs. How do you actually know what is happening with your traffic on the other end?

Wait until they figure out that reddit provides very little of value. The users are the ones who post content and keep the site alive.
