There's no financial incentive. No other mass consumer device besides PCs use DisplayPort, heck, even PCs generally have an HDMI port. So the percentage of TV buyers who actually need to use DisplayPort (basically Linux users) would

Forget the children, no one should be subjected to the brainrot that is TikTok. Or any form of vertical short videos for that matter.

I reckon your best bet would be the Unihertz Jelly Star[1] - it has a 3" screen, which is comparable to your old HTC Hero (3.2"), and you can run a LineageOS GSI on it. Oh, and it has a programmable hardware button, 3.5mm jack and

It is technically a toast, according to Microsoft. If you check the link in my previous comment, the script is using the Windows Runtime Toast Notification API, specifically the Windows.UI.Notifications namespace and the ToastGeneric XML to

FWIW, both OnlyOffice and LibreOffice support XLOOKUP. In fact LibreOffice has over 500 Excel formulae, which is very close to the number of formulae Excel has. Unless you use a lot of VBA (and you can't translate it to Python), or you

I find that highly unlikely given how much commercial agreements with MS costs. But if that's the case then they should either look for a different COTS solution, and/or change their business workflow. And in the event even that i

That depends on the size of the toast, appearance and frequency. We (an MSP) used a Windows toast notification[1] to encourage people initiate the Win10 > Win11 upgrade at their own convenient time (before it gets forced down on them) -

Is this project still active? The "current release" link on their website shows it was last released 7 years ago, which is a pretty long time without any updates for a FOSS project.

Is this project still active? It looked promising when I checked a while back, but there seems to be no new developments since April.

There are several active community derivatives. My favorite is QuickPup64, the dev releases new versions every 1-2 months, and is very responsive to feedback and issues. https://forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?t=3171

No, but that's only because I hate Excel. But I'm sure developers who don't hate it but also appreciate FOSS solutions might be interested, if the pay is good. Access = LibreOffice Base Visio = LibreOffice Impress Outlook = S

I don't see why you would automatically be in "a world of hurt". Yes, you might be if you were to suddenly roll it out organisation wide without any testing, but no sane IT department would do that. This is why you have inter

The chasm is enormous, but Calc doesn't need to implement 100% of Excel's functionality when most people - even business/power users - don't use all of its features. What major commonly used features do you reckon Excel

It caches your credentials so you can still login offline. But you do need to be online when you're logging into your PC for the first time, post-install. There are some unofficial hacks to bypass the online account requirement, but MS

If they're not interested in that market, they're not doing a good job in showing it. They mentioned "Linux" *five* times on that page, but don't explain what it is. Normal folks don't even know what Linux is,

The market is small, but I wouldn't be surprised if there was a significant overlap between those who want a keyboard and the target audience of the Jolla phone. Don't forget that SailfishOS is ultimately Linux (and not like Andro

by d3Xt3r 11mo ago
No, you're right. SailfishOS inherits the core of the OS from the old Maemo of Nokia N900 fame (though the UI was built from scratch I believe). I tried it back in the day on my Nexus 4 and it was buttery smooth, even with all its fanc

That shouldn't be a problem as long as you can still download apps from the Play Store itself (not the official app). Basically, take a look at how proxy stores like Aurora work, they connect to the Play Store servers and allow you to

Paramount has Star Trek, so it's a must-have for any Trekkie. And Disney has Star Wars, so it's a must-have for any nerf herder. :p

Except there's still Paramount, Disney and Hulu, and even if you get them all, there's no guarantee you can stream what you want to watch due to some bullshit regional distribution rights restrictions, which makes no sense in the

Can we also talk about increasing lack of physical controls, like for adjusting the aircon etc? Surely it's not legal in most places to fiddle with a touchscreen when you're driving? And if the legal answer is to pull over every t
