MS Office is scriptable with basic. LibreOffice, on the other hand, supports basic, python, js, beanshell.

Both software have there advantages. Scientific research is often done on Linux, and they use LibreOffice. In University, we also used it, because they said it has better functions for our use-case.

The reason why OpenDocument format is enforced in MS Office, is because it enforces compatibility. Tell everyone who uses docx to stop promoting a proprietary software, they have the option to save to a neutral file format.

Oh right. Thanks, indeed. However, for private apps on LAN addresses it's still a problem.

My only problem with PWAs is that they have arbitrary security requirements. Anything non-localhost needs https. No self-signed cert allowed. Enforcing people to buy a router that supports dyndns for their self hosted apps is odd. I'm wondering who makes these rules.

Unfortunately, not every component is open source, they publish anything that they legally can. But key components are closed source e.g. camera app. Google makes sure you cannot just use your own android ROM, so software-wise, practically, they are just as bad as a Samsung.

hardware-wise: big, expensive, but easy to repair. Hoping to see a new wide cam, because the actual is horrible.

do they interfere?

me neither, I was joking. (scp is command for copying files over ssh)

At least I know what SCP is. I use it sometimes.

As a European, I fucking fear to go to the USA (the country of school shootings). You just don't know how safe we feel here.

Here, you can only get guns after a training, psychology test, you cannot show it in public, etc.. Or you can get a weak gas something that cannot kill people, but can shoot birds.

The only problem is, my internet's upload speed is slow as hell.
