@semit0ne @argv_minus_one Oh i know right? it's rather common for people on my uni's campus to have server gear in their homes, who just.. deal with the noise. I could never... I'm glad my desktop shuts up once it's done booting

Euro-Office being hosted on github really does bother me

"Yeah we want a office suite, independent from the US and not maintained by Microsoft"
-"Where do we host it?"
"Oh on GitHub, dependent on the US and maintained by Microsoft"

@jeder also
Euro-Office provides a truly open, transparent, and sovereign solution
"sovereign"
hosts it on github

@jeder they kind of have a point too

but then again, if onlyoffice wasn't so hostile to contributors, they may have been able to work together too

@foone My job does this too, though with a much longer grace period (2 months). At some point it does indeed pop a "System will restart at <datetime>" notification

Had a such a wholesome interaction on the train

Saw the lady sitting next to me nodding off, so when she was awake momentarily I asked her what station she needed to get off on, so I could wake her if necessary. She said "Oh, at Deventer", which was the next station. "Oh, that's a coincidence" "Yeah, as if by instinct".

Seconds later, we crossed the IJssel bridge, with a beautiful sunset view (I would've taken a picture), so I mentioned how beautiful that view was. She: "Yeah, it's always beautiful. No matter the weather, sunny, overcast, rain. I love it here". Me: "Indeed. I might end up in Deventer someday" She: "Oh I really hope you do, I've been absolutely loving living here all my life", as she got up to leave the train.

I tend to prefer commuting by car, but gosh interactions like these are such a beautiful thing
