  • Worth the effort to obtain a copy of MS Office on the high seas? *SOLVED

    Jump

  • i don't want to start a war but sorry, office is the defacto when it comes to office work and libreoffice still have many problems with formatting and editing existing .docx files (things seem better when it comes to .xlsx and .pptx) not to mention that your documents might not look similar on both due to missing proprietary fonts.

    its a good software in itself its just that its compatibility with office is a little dodgy

  • have you successfully installed a custom rom / foss on a redmi 10c?

    Jump

  • Here you go pal

    Although it's a shame they don't have a vanilla variant for your phone model

    Few advices before you start:

    • Before unlocking your bootloader be sure to logout from all your account esspecialy google ( otherwise you might get locked out from your device )
    • The unlocking process can be a bitch ( The process has a Wait time. )
    • Before all that be sure to download your original rom ( also known as R_vendor ) and twrp for your specific device model
    • Also note that flashing your rom can be stressful and (in case something went wrong) It might require some time to fix everything up.

    Do I still recommend it? Yes.

    Edit: if you are locking for a guide i recomend this one

  • Why is jdownloader not available in most software managers?

  • Jetbrains

    well i meant software that even non developers uses

  • I think it’s just not that popular

    i don't think so there are far more less mainstream and ancient programs in the repos

    It is available in AUR, though

    the AUR is "Arch User Repository" witch is community maintained repo ..so i don't think that counts.

  • it’s a continous arms race between them and the websites

    i thought of that too but youtube-dl and yt-dlp still exists in most repos

    jdownloader has a self updating function

    maybe i mean the program is written in fucking java, i don't know of any other mainstream program that uses java outside of minecraft.

  • Stop being elitist, spread Linux!

  • Yes i agree, those who love tinkering and computers and care about thier privacy will find thier way to us. Just like birds that immigrate in autumn.

    I know i did, it was around 4 to 5 years ago when i needed a programme that only runs in w10. It was the first time i tried to install an operating system ever ( i can say i wasn't Nearly as tech savy as I am now,but i defently always loved computers) then during installation i somehow dicided to read the EULA and i came to know that w10 is more privacy invasive than an old lady who doesn't have anything to do.

    I used Wifislax before and i said "if i can use it to browse the internet then i dont care my privacy worth more" and then i remembred that my friend installed ubuntu before on his computer,so i searched ubuntu (around the time when the linux mint snap contreversy started) and now here i am a fully fledged linux user

  • There is a niffty Boot manager called Refined. This is what I use even though I installed Windows after Linux and had many kernel panics, but it does the job well since it scans your boot drive every time you Power on your machine. Here is a link. Just download the CD-ROM version, put it in ventoy, boot from it, and the rest is easy. You already are a linux user, you can figure it out.

    I also advise you to disable Windows updates if you can, and I mean all updates, because they can mess the boot order. If you use Windows to play games and games only.

    Edit: You can also install it from your distro package manager if you can access your system.
