I got tired of proprietary supplement blends, so I open-sourced my formulas

I noticed today that #MSOffice Online now has an option to save files as #odt instead of #pttx. It made me wonder, can we change our files at work to open formats and still have the MS using colleagues use them properly? That would be a great step !

Sadly, it seems not. Saving in MS Office breaks a lot of design in the files. Opening the pttx in @libreoffice works perfectly fine. Saving from there as odt does as well. But then MS Office considers the working odt file "corrupt", disallowing online view.

Seems like MS Office their implementation of open document standards are still lacking, so for anything requiring collaboration with MS Office users we're still stuck in proprietary formats. Sad .

I am beginning to think that #Nintendo has become a bad influence on gaming. Yes, its games are good, but I am only now realizing this is a company that litigates aggressively on copyright matters, kills off support for its old games so that it can resell them virtually unchanged on new consoles, and expects us to abide by its tedious #EULA or risk bricking our devices. So ask yourselves this: are you playing the game, or is Nintendo playing you?

Now open source it, so we can actually use it.

Time to retire my RT-AC68U #router, i suppose 8 years support isnt too bad but im so over #proprietary crap and premature #eol, as it's still working. Bit alas the final firmware update has come and gone, and there's no open drivers for the radios.

Switching over was fairly painless and the radio is better. ill keep the asus as a switch for now.

@knoppix95 Without knowing the details, I don’t trust this as long #Discord as a whole remains #proprietary software. Even assuming that #DAVE is 100% secure, why should we trust that there is *not* a backdoor in Discord that will just bypass DAVE and leak the keys anyway?

I refuse to trust Discord or any other proprietary software for "secure" communications.

Open source is benefiting from the current AI trend: some projects are already improving their security posture and reducing their attack surface.

Proprietary software, for now, seems more out of the loop.

But once LLMs become better at analysing binaries, compiled code, and obfuscation, I wonder how vendors will handle the likely increase in vulnerability disclosures.
