Microsoft is introducing ads into a free version of Office, which seemingly only lets users save to OneDrive.

In other news, LibreOffice is also free, doesn't have ads, and lets you save your documents wherever you want. I use it every day for my work. It is available here:

You remember #Apple scanning all images on your #mobile device?

If you have an #Android #phone, a new app that doesn't appear in your menu has been automatically and silently installed (or soon will be) by #Google. It is called #AndroidSystemSafetyCore and does exactly the same - scan all images on your device as well as all incoming ones (via messaging). The new spin is that it does so "to protect your #privacy".

You can uninstall this app safely via System -> Apps.

Linux ✅  

Meta (Facebook) has started deleting comments / posts on Facebook where a well established and beloved Linux site distrowatch.com is mentioned.

Accounts there became flagged as a "danger to cyber security" via Linux and Distrowatch related topics.

Things keep getting funnier and sillier are they not 🙂

Then again - Meta / Facebook is a rusty thing of a past in every sense..

I need some help going from on a to either stock Oxygen OS or directly to e/OS. I have tried to boot through fastboot boot twrp.img, but phone always goes into fastboot mode and not twrp.

I have spent hours browsing the web for a solution, but so far found nothing that helped. No problem getting back to postmarketos after doing fastboot erase etc.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
