Call off the Normandy invasion. What if an innocent person dies while we’re attacking Nazi Germany? Better to just leave them to do their thing.
Apart from that, I haven’t seen any source on this that isn’t just directly quoting Iranian state media propaganda.

1·5 days agoI think you have to select each book locally or possibly connect it to an existing WebDAV. I haven’t tested that, since this is the first app I’ve tried that has it. The syncing works well across devices, but I do hope they add other library manager syncing in the future like Calibre or KO

2·5 days agoHuh, I didn’t notice that. I haven’t used the Google Store a while so I didn’t check. It’s a pretty young project, so maybe that’s part of the plan in the long run. It costs money to be in stores so it could even be a funding issue. Just speculating.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Realistcly how much can be cleaned out of a house, as a child of a hourder?
19·7 days agoIf possible, work with a therapist for this kind of support.
You can rent a roll off dumpster from your local waste management company, and remove a lot in a matter of days. But if you are living with a hoarder, then the mess will just accumulate to fill the space you clear out in a couple months.
This is not a logistical problem, but a behavioral one.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Would it be possible to hack a smoke detector to make it play a little jingle?
29·7 days agoUsually it’s not exactly a speaker, but it does involve a controlled moving diaphragm. In a piezoelectric buzzer, a current applied to the diaphragm causes it to oscillate, and the size and shape of the diaphragm determines the tone AFAIK.
It may be theoretically possible to engineer such a device into a rudimentary speaker. I mean, people have done it with Tesla coils and player pianos, so hey, anything is possible?

Technology@lemmy.world•LibreOffice blasts 'fake open source' OnlyOffice for working with Microsoft to lock users inEnglish
27·8 days agoTo me, this would be like if VLC made an angry post about the evils of MP3 instead of just making a great player that can handle it (which they have). People still use VLC because we know that it will handle anything. Plus, they’ve kept the interface simple and intuitive, with most needed functions front and center, with lots of specialized features in menus and settings.
LibreOffice is losing ground because they don’t take design seriously and instead of making interoperability a priority, they would rather complain about user preferences.

22·8 days agoI last ran serious testing a year ago. I ended up going with OnlyOffice. Despite some drawbacks, it was an easier switch that offered less friction and better file compatibility coming from MS.

82·8 days agoAs per my previous comment, it should offer reasonable use of screen space, visual hierarchy, and well-reasoned organization. Moving bad menus to a different arrangement on the screen doesn’t magically make them into good menus.
As a first step, it was a good move, although it was a decade late when it came out. They still haven’t done a major redesign another decade on.

83·8 days agoTrue, but it is a purely aesthetic rearrangement of the menus. It doesn’t make it any more straightforward to navigate. Plus it doesn’t really function correctly on Windows (and it takes up just as much screen space).
It was a good step when they rolled it out about a decade ago, but they still haven’t done the work to make it better organized or show appropriate hierarchy.

I think it’s insane to kill tens of thousands of peaceful protestors, but I guess some people are more okay with it.
