Don’t let the downvotes get to you.
A lot of people are really angry and scared, and they’ll take that anger out on anyone that gives them a convenient lightning rod.
I also read the article. I know you’re telling the truth. They treated the man fairly. It was just… It’s something for news to yell and scream about to rile everyone up and make people more and more afraid.
Keep telling the truth and sharing the truth when you see it.
It will help some of the tension de-escalate.
I bet most of them are affiliated with a Christian church of some variety, at least 60%
For Nuance’s sake, it is important to note that not everybody makes every decision with perfect rationality and clarity, nor is everyone always completely and totally aware of the intentions of others that surround them.
Obviously, requesting that someone abandon their friends for the sake of a relationship is a piss take, but communication and building trust in the relationship can solve that.
The correct answer here is not that the relationship end because of the guys insecurity, but rather that both sides work on addressing his fundamental insecurity in the relationship and both sides keep all of their friends.
If the guy chooses not to work on his insecurity and double down on it, then you can justify ending the relationship because of this. But you should at least give it the college try first, right?

I am IT staff and I’ve worked for government in the past.
No matter how easy you make the swap over, no matter how much money it offers to save, there’s gonna be somebody who has sign off level executive authority who will refuse to change anything, because it means changing something, and they won’t like it.
Making a company-wide transition from Microsoft to a free version that does exactly the same is not a simple change.
If you make the change, you’re going to see a huge upswing in the number of support calls. You’re going to see a huge upswing in the number of complaints. You’re going to see downturns in efficiency and productivity as people make the changes, not to mention the fact that administering libreoffice from an organizational standpoint is a completely different beast from administering office.
I’m not saying that it can’t be done, by any stretch of the imagination.
I’m saying that the human element is the largest factor in whether or not it would be done, and unless you are already the city administrator or a big to-do inside of the fish pond you find yourself in, you likely do not have the human capital needed to make the transition, regardless of every other benefit.
If you want to get this done, I would suggest preemptively installing libre office on every single computer in the entire organization and then slowly telling people to use it as the opportunity arises so that three to five years from now there will be enough people who have used it that the transition would not be a huge ordeal.
Short of that you need to have an executive mandate from on high come in and say, we are not using Microsoft Office anymore, we will use LibreOffice, here are your training hours, go.


I bet that their poop is far worse than human poop because they don’t have any digestive enzymes to break it down, so the food probably just sits inside of them and rots until they decide to evacuate it.


They don’t jail you, they take every penny you’ve ever had or will have for the rest of your life.
It’s only fair, you becoming destitute for liking a post is far better than the risk that they didn’t get their $24.95 from you. /s


It’ll save you nearly $50 a month. So even if the customer service is exactly the same, you get to keep another $600 each year.
I switched to my local provider from Xfinity about three months ago, and my internet speeds are twice as fast for the same money.


I wouldn’t be surprised if anytime you get teleported arterial plaque and cancer and bacteria gets filtered out in a pattern buffer
Yeah, and?
Do you honestly believe there’s a single person on lemmy with enough gravitas to be worth being tracked by the elite?


When “hundredths fractions of security” fails to get a laugh, I know I’m in the wrong group of people.


Surely you understand how a stupid response to a silly statement like it is one of the sayings of all time can be appropriate in humorous situations, right?
I understand that you did not find it funny, but I hope that you can understand that it was my intention to be funny, and therefore a serious response is disproportionate.


I didn’t say it’s secure, I just said it’s security.


You can’t say that a solution is no security at all when it requires time and intelligence to bypass.
It is at least 0.01 security.
Also money, which are just political points in tangible/fungible format


Long story short, people that use it get really used to using it.


They say that immersion is one of the best ways to pick up a new language.
If it was everywhere all of the time, and you took advantage of things like community language learning events and language learning apps, you could become fluent in a matter of months.
After all, most people only need like a thousand to two thousand words to get by, So yeah, well, you may not be languidly discussing Proust during a bachanal with your neighbors by the end of the season, you should be able to identify stores and food items and discuss the weather and minor events.


I’ve been to several countries.
Translation apps are not perfect, but they can get you by in a pinch.
If they develop processors that hit the claimed frequency or a higher under the same TDP, then that means that that same processor can do more work with less energy.
Even processors today that can hit five gigahertz or more with overclocking do not constantly run at max tdp.
