Finally gave EuroOffice a shot today thanks to some people doing 3rd party packaging, and gosh the UI is leaps and bounds ahead of LibreOffice and Collabora these days. Not even close

XMPP is actually kind of neat these days. I called my landline from my phone earlier via Conversations. Then I took a call from my computer. Neat.

Breaking Up with Google Play: Why Conversations Is Now Free
Conversations, my federated instant messaging client for Android, started out as many traditional open-source projects do: as an attempt to scratch my own itch. Development started in January 2014 in my student dormitory, and within weeks I started dogfooding and using the client as the primary means of communicating with my friends. However, when it came to releasing the app to the public on March 24, 2014—exactly twelve and a half years ago today—it was immediately clear to me that I would at least try to turn my open-source project into a business. While I didn’t invent the business model of making the source code publicly available but charging for the convenience of a compiled binary, it was certainly unusual in 2014.

It sucks having to constantly build in contingencies for the projects you rely on or want to contribute to because increasingly worse contribution policies are being proposed for them every few weeks Few things have been as demotivating and demoralizing as this stuff

Pistorius nimmt in Texas ersten F-35A-Jet für Bundeswehr entgegen In Texas hat Bundesverteidigungsminister Pistorius den ersten von 35 Kampfjets des Typs F-35A übernommen. Die Flugzeuge sind vom gegnerischen Radar nur schwer zu orten.

Switching to buying basically only Canadian-made hygiene products (shower gel etc.) has honestly been quite the fun experience. I haven't really made a conscious decision about those before, just kind of picked the cheapest brand name option, and now I kind of wish I had checked earlier!
