Yeah, I was not able to convince my wife to use LibreOffice instead of Office365, but OnlyOffice was an easy sell. I really enjoy it myself as well.

On their page it says: "## Ascensio System SIA - home of the ONLYOFFICE

ONLYOFFICE is a project developed by experienced IT experts from Ascensio System SIA, leading IT company with headquarters in Riga, Latvia. Originally ONLYOFFICE was designed for internal team collaboration.

An attempt to introduce it to a wider audience proved to be successful: ONLYOFFICE received very positive feedback from the Internet community. As a result, its functionality was considerably revised and expanded that brought about a high and stable growth of users from different countries.

Nowadays, ONLYOFFICE is an international, open source project with employees and contributors in more than 30 countries. The holding company in Singapore unites our offices around the world under the ONLYOFFICE brand. For now, we have departments in Riga, Singapore, London, Dallas, Belgrade, Yerevan and Tashkent. Would like to join our big open source family? Check how to become a contributor or discover job openings."

Hmm…you seem to be at least partially right.

“In 2009, a group of software developers from Ascensio System SIA (Latvian-based) and New Communication Technologies (Russian-based) launched a project called TeamLab, a platform for internal team collaboration.[32]” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/OnlyOffice

Haha, thanks!

Finding grey hair in your beard. The first time I started to feel older was once I found a couple grey hair in my beard. None in my hair, just beard

A VR headset. have only gotten to play it a couple of times. my apartment is a bit too small.

Buuuut, in not too long I am moving to a bigger one. So then I can continue playing Half Life Alyx :D

The reason they don’t support Monero was adressed in a recent podcast “OptOut” with the CEO of Proton.

TLDR; they fear the biggest companies for auditing their finances, won’t work with them if they do. Which is reasonable, they are a business after all.

Looks good! I am a bit worried about it being an MMO, but Funcom has a lot of experience with making them. So might be good?

I’m especially looking forward to the interactions with sand worms and the thumper mechanics.

This sound a bit like depression, but I am no medical professional.

Imagine all the input you get every day both positive and negative. When we are depressed we do a worse job at filtering out the negative.

If this is how you feel all (or most) of the time for a prolonged period, I would consider talking to your doctor. Antidepressants can help a lot. They can take weeks to months to be effective, but they work.

If you are sceptical about medication, it does not hurt to read about it and how they work.

Anyways, I hope things improve for you!

Banking compatability by country. In my experience even banking apps not mentioned also work. https://privsec.dev/posts/android/banking-applications-compatibility-with-grapheneos/

Donkey Kong Country on SNES

I have been following their advice for years. I have replaced a couple of services with the suggested alternatives, and use GrapheneOS.

It is also useful to check their forum for discussion on why something is added/removed/not added

If you are new to the whole “privacy-thing” my advice would be to start figuring out your own threat model first. They have some guides for that.

Also remember that even though something does not make the cut to be mentioned as a recommendation, it might still be an improvement over what you currently use. The forums are great for discussions regarding that.
