Today marks nine years since the last big OpenOffice update (4.1). If you're still using it, but want something more up-to-date, check out #LibreOffice! It was based on OpenOffice and is also free and open source, but with huge improvements and many fixes: libreoffice.org/discover/libre…
@gpowerf I am using OpenOffice. Know why? Because it just works for what I use it for. Why would I use a similar product when the product I use just works for me.
@ibeardslee In 2000, my parents bought a PC with StarOffice 5.1 preinstalled. I discovered OpenOffice (1.x) in 2005 when I went to my cousin’s home once.
Office7 (a fork) was preinstalled on my first laptop PC (2007-2009).
I switched from Office 2007 to OOo in 2010, and from OOo to LibO the day of its public release (a winning bet, since nobody knew if this fork will last at this time).
@IzzyChambers @gpowerf Thanks for the details – if you have a couple of minutes, could you maybe check on bugs.documentfoundation.org in case someone else has reported it, please? Or add a report – then we can investigate. Thanks!

“Fun fact: SIM City was forced to pretend that all parking lots were underground because the game would be really boring if it was proportional in terms of parking lots.”
Really boring like too many real cities and suburbs?
So the Twitter virtual hive mind is splitting. Half of us went to Mastodon. The other half of us are going to Blue Sky. I dislike needless fragmentation. But, I get it. *sigh*
fulanigirl, Boosted from @arstechnica: Top Twitter influencers flee to Bluesky amid Musk’s continued debasing
Bluesky's CEO clarified: "Twitter does not own us."
just saw another post about it. It looks like you have to be invited to join it? It's weird. as I was typing this, I wanted to say that I read another tweet, but that's not accurate any more.
If you’re a culture group that criticizes Bill C-11, government MPs call you a shill and seek investigations into your funding. If you support the bill while receiving hundreds of thousands in government funding, no such questions. canada.ca/en/canadian-heritage…
A general update by the founders, progress on intentional mentions, the release of eternal IRC bridges… that and much MUCH more happened this week in Matrix!

and 7 updated apps at apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid (an 8th update had to be rolled back as FoodExpirationDates decided to add Firebase, Crashlytics & Co; issue is open with them, so there's hope for a fix)

When an interactive element like a button, link, and form field sits on top of another interactive element, accessibility (and usability) problems arise.
@Friendica Support Ich überlege, ob ich meine #RSS-Feeds als #Gruppe in meinem #Account verwalte. Dazu meine #Frage: Gibt es eine Möglichkeit, alle Feeds in die entsprechende Gruppe zu #importieren? Mein aktueller Feedreader (das Firefox-Addon Feedbro) bietet dazu die folgende Datei an:
Ließe sich das denn technisch umsetzen, so wie von mir angefragt? Oder ist das Interesse dazu sehr gering, weil nur wenige Nutzer - so vermute ich - Friendica als RSS-Reader nutzen?
ICYMI: Within minutes of Bill C-11 receiving royal assent last night, cultural lobby group points to the need for the CRTC to establish social media rules.
--- RT @mgeist That didn’t take long: Canadian cultural group’s release on Bill C-11 already calls on the CRTC to establish rules on social media. This is the bill @pablorodriguez built with lobby groups ready to demand user content regulation supported by the plain language in the bill. twitter.com/mgeist/status/1651…
Dear @Castopod team, the action I required was posting an episode in a not yet published podcast to fill up the backlog before publishing ... oO The episode is not in the episode list. What happened?
I wonder whether this code was generated according to the spec. I have a feeling that generator should choose a proper mask pattern to avoid large areas of solid color. It's definitely readable though.

@ladymunch I was looking at these for my balcon, not sure if they are too big or not. Does the pole go into the ground or how is it fixed to the floor?
@andrew@social.hodgson.io I'll be checking into that link. I wouldn't be able to use a hammock, but something like that would be really therapeutic for me and my messed up senses.
@ladymunch Thanks, this is good news. I will probably end up getting one for my balcony as my sister is coming to house sit for a few days they can try and build the thing.
@andrew @ladymunch Yeah but that's not the same chair, and Kirsten looked at it, it's not as good as the one I sent you. I'm not on twitter anymore and she's not on Mastodon but if you drop her a tweet @Mooncat86 I'm sure she'd be happy to tell you more.
Главные певцы апреля — это дрозды. Возле моего дома их каждый год тьма. Вокруг много растительности и птицы чувствуют здесь себя в безопасности. Кстати, соловьи тоже уже дня два как поют. Как минимум один точно))
Здесь в Германии, да и во Франции, соловьёв не слышал вовсе, а вот чёрные дрозды здесь поют на такой громкости, чтобы перекричать шум от движения машин по улицам.
When can I test it on my legacy gmail accounts for the entire family? Some 10+ years of mail accumulated in there :) Also, if I do import 10+ years of mail history, how will the search keep up with that? And YES I am at least as excited about it!!
@martijndevrieze It's a very first prototype, challenge now it that emails are correctly sorted into folders. This might take a few more months; hopefully we can release during the summer.
We plan to improve search in general, and for this we will also focus on performance in larger mailboxes. On desktop performance is already excellent (just make sure not to delete the cached search index).
@waywardchild It's a very first prototype, challenge now it that emails are correctly sorted into folders. This might take a few more months; hopefully we can release during the summer.
Awesome, that's great news! Any news about the Android widgets? What's the status? The issue tracker on Github (Calendar Widget #1756) is not getting updates looks like

Zuletzt hatten wir in unseren Umfragen größere Veränderungen beim Vertrauen in Institutionen beobachtet. Nach einem Vertrauensrückgang in alle untersuchten Institutionen im April ´22 konnte zuletzt das Vertrauen in Gewerkschaften den größten Zugewinn verzeichnen. @BettiKohlrausch und ich haben dazu eine genauere Analyse durchgeführt. Details⬇️ 1/🧵
Die Krisen der vergangenen Jahre haben das politische System unter Druck gesetzt. Das Vertrauen in Gewerkschaften hat sich als weitgehend stabil erwiesen.
This article by NOS on how NS is going to be allowed to also financially punish people who have to travel during peak hours has this rather neat summary on how NS is being financed.
Essentially, the only subsidy they get is for the free student travel. Everything else (including a fixed annual concession fee and track usage fees) are paid through tickets (and other commercial activities such as Abellio abroad.
