I refuse to buy phones with holes in screen, my previous phone was redmi k30 ultra, now switched to nubia z70, exactly cause of that reason. So when apple released iphone with that big eyebrow I laughed manically, cause like, who would buy that shit?..

Then they released laptop with same eyebrow notch, that literally served zero purpose (under it only single small camera, no sensors that would require that size of cut in the screen), after that I stopped laughing. It's not funny anymore, it's terrifying. It's like, apple audience trained to buy whatever apple sells them or something. And they will defend it furiously, scary shit.

  1. It's not a bug, it's a feature that was made like that from the start. Link1 , Link2 , Link3. It also a known issue that you can't deduplicate sorted\filtered table. Just not a thing. Deal with it.

  2. No, I have not. I did my share of reporting bugs and requesting features in OSS, but assholes like dude below will never be happy about me, cause how dare I to call out on obvious flaw in open software! OSS doesn't have issues, YOU LYING! I'm done. Kinda burned out. OSS community sucks and can go fuck itself.

I'm a simple support who occasionally work with personal data stored in CSV and JSON. Libreoffice sucks. For example: deduplication hiden behind "create autofilters > press on any filter > filter by condition > standard filter > remove selected field > press options > no duplications". Cool, eh? And for some reason it doesn't work if at least one field selected, which is completely unintuitive. There other quirks too, like completely hidden in settings function to display more than 1 million rows, wich is disabled by default and there no notification that your document exceed this. I already forgot other issues that I faced with it, but yeah, not a fan of it. It's good untill you start actually use it.

That being said, it's free, open source and works most of the time, especially if you just need to view some data, from this side of things it have almost zero competition.

I can't build shit when they steal my stuff man.

Jokes aside, I live in Serbia. It's not "bigotry" here, it's just being aware of your surroundings. But you always welcome to come here and prove me wrong.

Upd. Considering amount of downvotes I assume answer to my comment would be something like "you right and I hate you for this, but have nothing to say in my defense, so here your downvote". Fine by me.

Situation with TVs way worse. Most non-chinese phones do not spy on you 24/7. Yes, some (if not all) major apps logs everything you do, but it not nearly close to what GN discovered with LG TVs: they literally record your screen and logs everything you say.

Also, on android you often have options to opt out or change software and sometimes even switch to different OS. Best option that I found for my LG C2 — is to just turn internet off.

When I was working in repairs, we got orders sometimes to repair those microwaves. And the only thing that I learned is that if magnetron (coolest technology name in my opinion) died, then it similar to TVs with dead display — price of repair would be basically close to price of whole device.

Ah, finally — the "AGI" had arrived! Now it can solve all those incurable diseases like cancer and HIV+, bring peace to all religions, fix our economy and etc. possibilities are endless!..

...what do you mean "it can't even do math without running python script"?

As a support myself — you always have options tho. They could've just you know, not answer? Or worst case scenario, you usually would have some templates for rude/unrelated question. In this case it's just a bot answer.

Well, it's not like problems are guaranteed, most things just work, except maybe Steam.

I heard there was big investment from Germany into flatpack, I hope it become more polished, it would be great. I do like fully native apps, but I like stability and ease of install better.

Not to protect so called "toxic environment", but sometimes people need to hear what others think about them and their work, preferably without pink glasses. Hiding truth behind fake polite smile is not correct approach either.

As an example, Linus once harshly commented about breaking user space. Was it impolite to mog developer? Maybe. But nowadays in our "polite circle with pink ponies" people more easily do what they not supposed to, cause there no harsh feedback. My amdgpu crashing and taking full video stack with it each focking time. It can't restart even if you trigger /sys/kernel/debug, like, it's dead-dead. And that due to user space program, aka game. This shit should't happen and yet here we are. Could it be different if Linus kept yelling at people, to reinforce fear of breaking stuff? My money on "yes". There other examples of course, like compete disaster called "Concord", where ultra polite environment became so forced that it kinda became toxic thing on itself and we all know the end result of it.

So yea, not a fan of that.
