Reminds me of a story a friend told me when I was traveling through South America.

My friend was walking home late at night and a guy from another country (forgot which, but it was obvious from his accent) asked him for money. This exchange of course happened in Spanish:

“I have an iron” “what does iron means in your country?” “by iron I mean knife” and pulls out a knife “oh, because here iron means this” and pulls out a gun.

Then the robber just ran away.

I bought a laptop that came with a broken charger, I could easily test it myself as a friend also had an HP laptop with the same brick (this was before the days of USB C).

I tried to make a warranty claim and they wanted me to send the laptop too and wipe the HDD, the RMA process would take weeks on top of that.

I ended up buying a 3rd party charger, I’m sure their RMA process is overly long and convoluted to deter people from making warranty claims

NZ is usually used as a Guinea pig by tech companies, small population, English speaking, etc.

However I think it might be that the Alll Blacks might face off the Springboks in the Rugby World Cup Final and Elon wants to minimise the shitposting on Twitter. /s

yes, and according to the article, OpenOffice was already abandoned for 4 years ago by then

My sister’s job just switched to LibreOffice in 2018, OO is still alive and kicking in a lot of small companies

Surprised to see FLCL Shoegaze dropping this soon, I was expecting it to come at least next year

I’m stealing claer

I use glow all the time, I love it!

I’ve been playing with wish too, I see a lot of potential for it

I am a light user so I just stayed on version 3.0.2

It works for my use case as it is and the day it doesn’t, I’ll look for whatever fork is most popular

A friend works for a large-ish company that makes a product on Unity (not a game tho) and he just told me they were moving to Godot ASAP

I used to play a lot of Warsaw and never heard of the fork. I’ll Check it out later tonight, thanks!

they do, my sister just bought one

There’s a museum of the incident with a reconstruction of the plane crash in Italy. Absolutely worth a visit. https://www.inbologna.it/the-museum-for-memory-of-ustica-in-bologna.html

It was known for a long time that the plane was downed by a missile, with the French being suspects.

Also, the last mile issue is very real and needs to be solved.

Bicycle

afaik, tyres and brakes are proprietary too
