It's so desperately needed. Anyone who has used the subway in NYC knows what a pain it is if you want to go between Brooklyn and queens. Best case you catch the G which if you're going to the outer side of the borough is still a long way out of your way. This would be a critical link between the very sprawling lines, and definitely will revitalize the outer edges

Means they're aware of libre office and they're scared, so that's positive. I'm guessing the European countries switching over is making them nervous.

Love it, maybe they'll start realizing they're the baddies

Fair, I usually poke into All every once in a while to see if there's anything new, and !communitypromo@lemmy.ca is usually pretty good at letting folks know too

it was very telling that the managers didn't seem to care at all

I have couple friends who's wives complain that they play to many video games. I've never understood this because my spouse and I both play games, mostly single-player games in the same room and we love it. And if they don't feel like playing games, they have other hobbies, or read, or anything else. If your partner needs be be giving you attention, there is something wrong with the relationship

I'm missing the cookout!

I've been in the nerdy tech space for decades now and I will never understand how these people expect things like Linux to take charge while they're also being the most gatekeepy and arrogant people. Sure, I'd love folks to try it out, but I'm not going to demonize them either for not. I also have done tech support and there are the people where I just say "Nope, get a mac" because otherwise I will be the person that they go and demand free support from every week.

There's passion, but then there's a line that is too often crossed that goes into ego and selfishness, and I think Lemmy just breeds that.

I think it matters community to community - but I don't disagree with you. Personally, I suggest curating a list of communities that you like and subscribing to them. It's been much more pleasant having that than the barrage of All.

 

Hey folks, happy Thanksgiving to those celebrating today!

I have a Synology DS1821+ that I have completely filled. I'm looking for expanding, but I don't really want to completely replace the Synology yet.

Does anyone know if there is a way to expand the number of drives? I've heard murmers that I can use a DAS, but nothing for sure. Wondering if anyone has attempted this before. Thanks!

Looking for a gift? I know quite a few who missed out on these who were sad about it, they're all restocked for the (I assume) the holidays, but knowing her store probably only a day
