LibreOffice Online: a fresh start - TDF Community Blog
LibreOffice is a desktop application, but we get many requests for a web-based version of the suite that users can deploy on their own infrastructure. Several years ago, project members started to develop LibreOffice Online, but in 2022 the Board of Directors at The Document Foundation voted to freeze the project and put it in the “attic”, for reasons that have now been superseded. Earlier this month, the current Board of Directors decided to revoke those votes to give new life to the proje…

Donald Trump and Zohran Mamdani met for a second time on Thursday. The meeting was conciliatory, with Mamdani having apparently hypnotized Trump with charisma and overt flattery. It’s both a savvy and potentially perilous strategy.

Detailed map reveals groundwater levels across the U.S.
How much fresh water is in the United States? It's a tough question, since most of the water is underground, accessible at varying depths. In previous decades, it's been answered indirectly from data on rainfall and evaporation. Knowing how much groundwater is available at specific locations is critical to meeting the challenges of water scarcity and contamination.

Nothing says an overvalued Nvidia better than a random ad for a $5000 nothingburger prebuilt PC. Do you know how much fresh air that kind of money could buy you? Unlimited supplies.

Green Pea Guacamole Recipe (Gift Recipe)
Adding fresh English peas to what is an otherwise fairly traditional guacamole is one of those radical moves that is also completely obvious after you taste it. The peas add intense sweetness and a chunky texture to the dip, making it more substantial on the chip. They also intensify the color of the green avocado — and help the guacamole stay that way. Pea guacamole keeps its bright hue in the fridge for a few days without turning brown around the edges. A good dose of lime juice helps this …

I went to the local hill / mountain today to escape the fog / clouds. Well and also to see whether the fog would create some nice mood to capture along the way that I'm walking rather often.

Yesterday I was in the MUJI store in downtown Toronto (there's no MUJI in Montreal/Quebec).
We really couldn't figure out the music. They were playing a 15-20 minute repeating loop of traditional Scottish music. It was so out of place.
