As others have mentioned - and to add my own opinion: In terms of Writer (Word) and Calc (Excel), LibreOffice is by far better than M$ for everyone who isn’t for some reason an absolute fan of searching for buttons that have the function they need by looking at tiny icons.
As much as I appreciate Valve’s contributions to the Linux gaming world: If I wanted a computer with an Operating System dedicated to / optimized for gaming, I would buy a console instead.
I do believe that an operating system by steam for anything but the SteamDeck is a bad idea. It might leech market share of other linux distros, and trigger less well maintained generic linux compatibility - and at that point, Valve could get procured by one of those parasitic megacorps and the enshittification thumbscrews will be tightened HARD. With the end result throwing Linux gaming back a decade in favor of proprietary hot garbage.
Fucking hell. The only person to do the right thing for once in this war criminal administration is driven to attempt suicide, while all the monsters walk free. This world is so fucked up.
I actually do navigate through folder structures typing letters even in a GUI, but the terminal is still way faster for experienced users. And - what’s more important: knowledge acquired for the terminal stays valid for ages - in the linux world now, 30+ years. Whereas a GUI change can be catastrophic to a learned workflow.
GUI: ~5 mouse buttons / wheel functions Terminal: +102 keys
is this “AI” you speak of in the room with you right now? If you believe that machine-learned pattern recognition and word prediction algorithms are “AI”, you shouldn’t be left anywhere near a compiler or production code.
That’s like asking the world’s best FPS gamers to “just try an aimbot”. Actual programmers do far better than a machine-learned bullshit printer.
So, I vibe-coded a new one
“I love to enable oligarchs and fascists”
I was looking for the onion link…
As a German, I agree.
I’m not “against” it per se, but I would think - given the odds - it would be shitty to get tested without participating in the huge database.
Wrong place and context.
It seems the doc validated your feelings that you wanted to help your friend then, but also set you up for disappointment by not telling you the odds, and that you were much more likely to be a match for some complete stranger.
See you mentioned the important bit: we get checked to be in a large database pool for potential patients. Not to match with a specific friend, because as nice as that would be, it is very unlikely to ever happen.
I am sorry but you misunderstood the process. You do not check whether you match with a specific patient, but rather typisation is done to add potential donors to a larger database, from which hopefully a donor match is already available even before, because the chances for a match are so low that you can have a couple million people checked until you find a match. This is not blood groups.
Yes, those people who know how bone marrow type matching works, and what the odds are. Also, OC has confirmed in their response that they didn’t get to the point of a donation. And found better - albeit not entirely correct - wording for the process they allegedly signed up for.
That sounds quite different. Wording matters, especially in times of bot posts and clout posts.
Also, no one signs up to be tested for a match with a specific person, not at those odds. So your new wording still doesn’t reflect how typisation (not sure about that word) is done.
he had leukemia, and i signed up to donate spinal marrow for him.
if you had actually donated bone marrow, you would know that’s not how this works.
manage user knowledge management system/notes
doesn’t have the same ring to it as
Managing and organizing notes
The first one sounds like it’s a meta-management engine with a very abstract purpose that is not explained in OP. The second - your wording - sounds like a simple Notes app, and I mean “simple” in a good way. The OP doesn’t manage to communicate such a simple message.
that is what I was trying to say - in more words and with a couple of typos ;)
