Open Office was a cesspool of disease, even before covid it was problematic:

Thankfully enough people realised this and switched to Libre.

Yeah fair enough. I should say I haven't read his latest. He's been almost constantly on the European media circuit with hot takes on anything and everything from economics to science to politics to culture since the Greek economic crisis with the EU.

I used to like him in the beginning but after a while I got the impression he was the guy at the bar with a whisky and cigar in his hand telling the same story to patrons. But, my god, what a story it was!

Varoufakis likes to position himsetas a sage. Someone that "saw it coming and warned everyone but nobody listened". He likes to pop back and pretend he had solutions or influence but the world just conspired against him.

I don't know if he's wrong on this one. I do know he often sprays a bunch of doomsayer predictions and only reviews the ones he was vaguely in the same ballpark for. He's the classic embodiment of the Texas Sharpshooter fallacy and, naturally, a lot of people want to believe what he's pedaling. If he sells a few books or gets paid to give speeches here and there then so be it. After all.... he did warn us.

Makes sense, don't MS own SO, GH, OAI, and Minecraft?

Varoufakis likes to say what a lot of people like to hear 🤣😉.

The fuck is this word soup title? Is it supposed to activate the Winter Soldier or something?

Sign up on mobile was absolute trash, completely buggered and I had to sign up over the web in the end (which then told me my username was taken FFS). A big put off.

Love what the dev is doing, but he needs to get the basics right before plowing ahead with features.
