The old world is in flames around us.

There is no more middle ground. If you care about public health—if you care about medical research—if you care about climate change, labor conditions, the well-being of children in war zones, the price of groceries—you have to become a revolutionary. 🏴

We still see people on social media recommending OpenOffice. Just be aware that it's no longer getting updates, and has multiple year-old unfixed security issues: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_O… – To be safe, switch to one of the actively maintained successor projects (such as LibreOffice).

We had a guy coming to an Install party last month with OpenOffice on his laptop. We had to tell him it's not really developed anymore.

Hello, friends of LibreOffice!

I am one of those people who are still recommending Apache OpenOffice. But there is a reason, I am not doing it randomly or for fun.

I work with people at rural schools, where they use old computers, mostly donated ones, and mostly offline. They need to use a fast, lightweight office suite, and even LibreOffice 7.6 is not lightweight enough for these situations. However, Apache OpenOffice 4.1 works PERFECT because it is certainly lighter.

Regards!

It’s been quite a week.

Fuck I love Mastodon! No other platform has ever given me as a Blind person such access to the public sphere as I've gotten today from alt text of protests in the United States. Thanks to all you gorgeous folk for demonstrating that inclusion matters, cause it sure does to me!

So, while the massive crowds in NY, Washington, Boston and Chicago are great, please show your appreciation to those who protested in smaller towns.

Even a crowd of 25 or 30 people… they risk more. They’re holding up signs in front of their neighbours and people they know. That takes a courage that you don’t need in a big march in a big city.

Also, if we can't rely on the media to cover the protests, this gets it out in front of more people. We mostly were showing our signs to passing cars.

I DID IT! Was out there almost an hour (didn’t bring my phone so not exactly sure how long)

Mostly ignored, but lots of honks, waves and thumbs up, too. Two joggers stopped and thanked me. One possible Trump supporter either said Go Trump or Fuck Trump - honestly could have been either given the traffic noise. No one hassled me and no cops

I’m so glad I did this

Thank you to everyone who supported and encouraged me — ❤️ you all as much as I love democracy
