Hello! (fluent)
Bonjour ! (fluent)
こんにけは！(εˆεΏƒθ€…)

Thanks for all the boosts and follows over my gushing about haha. Looking forward to chats about language and writing, but also music and gaming if that interests you too!

Nothing more exciting than a good word processor or text editor. I’ve enjoyed so many over the decades starting with in the 1980s, through other majors (Word), and niches like (Amiga), and (Mac). πŸ₯°

@Bindestriche What trouble have you had? Find some bugs to report?

@Bindestriche Check my pins for the PDF of Ethan Winer's book. That project was done in Writer + Calc + Inkscape. Turned out really nice. It was a joy to put together.

@Bindestriche The CSV opening workflow is nice. Calc goes straight to the data import dialog. Other spreadsheet apps first open in the default view and then you have to dig to find the data tab/submenu.

I find the handling of full page bleeds to be smoother and have more reliable anchoring than other apps like Word.

The SVG setting and cropping from within Writer is so good.

The PDF exporting from Writer produces more consistent layouts than I get with Word or Wordperfect.

Decades have passed since the 1960s, yet the use of Indigenous American and First Nations names and images by sports teams continues to stir public debate. Mainstream media often simplifies the issue, framing it solely as a matter of offense to Indigenous individuals.

However, this oversimplification disregards the tangible harm caused and dismisses the impact on non-Natives. Today, we delve into the true complexities surrounding Indigenous peoples as sports mascots in #TheBigPicture: thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p

@libreoffice I love for the ease of use, the richer features, the consistent media alignment and reliable SVG support, open document format, easy to install, easy to distribute, most consistent multi-platform experience, great documentation with real-world examples, helpful community and there's no stupid subscription! I prefer donating and have several times. Going to again later this week.

Thanks LibreOffice team! This is great software I never want to be without!

Business leaders: We can't find enough workers!

Workers: You could pay more.

Business: Nope.

Workers: Better benefits?

Business: No.

Workers: More flexible hours?

Business: No way.

Workers: Treat your current employees better to build your employer brand?

Business: Never.

Workers: Well, what's left?!

Business: Child labor!

So... I feel like a total dick for saying this, but 5 out of 7 of my last mentorship sessions have no-showed or cancelled within 10 minutes of their appointments in the past week. Only one person out of those has provided any reasonable reason. I'm really sorry - if this keeps up much longer I am not going to be able to continue the service.

If you aren't respectful of my time, please, please be respectful of the time of others who help you along your career journey. I miss every single Sunday afternoon I could spend with my family for nothing but occasional tips. Some folks wait months for these appointments.

"The internet has made it so that we don't have to finish a game or achieve quality before launching it. Patch later amiright haha! We can make random promises to shareholders and keep them. Gamers? What are gamers? Oh the wallet people? We don't deliver to them. We deliver to shareholders."

Ok Apple, you’ve announced that Logic Pro is available for iPad. But where is it in the store? Is this USA only? Don’t tease!

In order to protect the constitutional rights of individuals from being infringed upon by state laws, I believe there is a need for a national, non-partisan, and independent body that operates outside of both the judiciary and legislature. This body would be responsible for reviewing and pre-clearing all proposed bills, both at the state and federal level, to ensure they meet constitutional requirements, federal law, and our treaty obligations before they can be considered by the legislature.
