    There are probably a lot of programms that do aspects of Excel better. But the combined might you weild if you know how to use Excel is very powerful. I tried LibreOffice and OnlyOffice and the spreadsheet part of those office suites is the roughest one until today.

    But my comment was more about how much of our economy probably runs on Excel. And I experienced how badly Excel and for example LibreOffice Calc plays together, it makes switching very hard. A complex .xlsx is far from being rendered and calculated correctly in LibreOffice.



  • We have a lot of different political and government bodies. Like the “checks and balances” the US had. So when you read “Switzerland wants to…” it could be:

    • A survey of people living in Switzerland
    • A initiative (an official political vote done by the swiss citicens)
    • One big or multiple parties signing an agreement
    • A group of cantons or communal legislative or executive politicians
    • A group of semi-official people (like the conference of all the cantons data protection officers (“Kantonale Datenschützer”, keine Ahnung wie all das Zeug auf Englisch heisst, Hilfe)
    • Our parliament or a comitee in it
    • Our other parliament or a comitee in it
    • The federal court
    • The federal chancelor
    • The federal government
    • And sometimes internetusers even mix some company into the bag, for example Proton.

    I probably forgot a few and misspelt a lot but you get the idea. And all of them are different elected or appointed persons, with their own opinions.









  • That is fascinating to me as well:

    Movies > Big filesizes > many public trackers and seeders

    Music > smaller and easier to store/play > less public trackers, only slsk is really viable

    Books > even smaller > there are some websites like anna and a lot of small ones

    But then: Sheet music > even smaller files > almost impossible to pirate

    It is fascinating to me that there isnt one clear spectum along filesize.

    I guess it has to do with the target audience and demand.

    Hacking a Social Media profile --> Tearing down a poster Hacking a Website --> defacing a facade

    If the blinds arent closed by or a window is left open by accident, some information could get out. If the doors arent locked, the attacker could get access to further information.


  • To be honest, the backing up is not trivial for most.

    Even for me, while the technical aspect is no problem, the mental burden of thinking to do the backup and then the few minutes it takes to do the backup. Not a problem for a local only FOSS app but its quite a task to keep track of 10+ apps with different backup/export options, backup-passwords and so on. I use a ToDo-App with recurring tasks but still
