“Fake money for criminals” is such a dumb, bootlicker thing to say.
Maybe most “1st world” people don’t undersrand it yet but crypto (although most of it is scam, but the good ones like Monero) really enables international transactions and freedom of money and brings so much freedom to the people.
Scammers have ruined the image of cryptocurrenvies but there are actually useful currencies out there like XMR,LTC that are being used frequently for actuall services and products. Not just trading.
You should checkout their contibuting guide. There are many ways to contribute as non programmer.
Many companies will send you docx files out of sheer idiocity. And tell you to “send the word” to them.
And excel is always transferred as xlsx
This might be a bit harsh, but to be honest, you can’t expect them to be smarter. Otherwise they would also be engineers.
It’s good but not great. The documents will still get messed up and look wierd sometimes.
No you cannot shift to open document formats because you can’t send an odt file to another company. They will not know what it is. In the enterprise world you have to “send them the word” or “the excel”.
One of the main places windows is used, like it or not, are organizations and companies. Especially small ones. Specially ones that are not in wealthy countries. And the only thing that keeps them from switching to linux is microsoft office. (Most importantly Word, excel).
My company has ~20 people and I would switch them over to linux if it wasn’t for word and excel.
While libreoffice is great on it’s own, companies send eachother xlsx and docx files. And libreoffice isnt great at reading or writing them. Specially complex ones. I don’t think it’s much of libre office’s fault, but more the shitty incompatible, unstandardized microsoft formats.
Currently I’m the only Linux user in the team, and I constantly advocate Linux, but I know if anybody switches, compatibility with microsoft office is going to be a problem. I can take the risk with the tech team but not the office section (hr, sales, secretary accounting etc.) really.
Those who have the expertise should start contributing and working more on Linux for mobile. Postmarket has made great progress it just needs more manpower
Oh yes, because the US and co. Have decided to put sanctions on a bunch of countries, the “3rd world people” are not allowed to buy products or services or make monetary transactions with the “civilized world”? No, fuck governments and fuck their sanctions and rules. People who insist on doing things, especially monetary transactions only the way the governments and states want to are the definition of bootlicker. Free economy requires free money (free as in freedom)
