@RmDebArc_5 @clark , I know MS Office can open and save ODFs, I am not sure how well it does it. One would pressume that it being an open document format (hence the name) and it being a NATO standard, MS office would have proper compatibility, but I am rather reserved to confidently pressume this.
@ReversalHatchery , I completely agree. My ring 0 is sacred and I can't prove there isn't anything in it already, but I wouldn't knowingly shove third party stuff into my kernel. I like to keep my apps restricted from anything they don't need on my system in userland. However, millions upon millions of people installed Tencent's Vanguard to play League of Legends like it wasn't any big deal (it is). If people want an inner ring security module, I suppose that's a bit their choice. 🤷🏽♂️
@drwho I have a data server with data I hold dear and want to ensure losing drives (using RAID6) won't lead to me losing my data.
@thingsiplay @drwho , as soon as RAID5/6 is fully ready (and I am aware it looks like it'll never be), I'll be switching over to it.
@independantiste @TimeSquirrel , I could be wrong, but Windows NTFS is also incredibly terrible at reading/writing large numbers of small files. Windows explorer can now be opened in different processes, at least that's some improvement.
Edit: There's a reason why game developers create an archive of the files for the game rather than reading them from the FS itself.
@WagnasT @Tekkip20 my experience with switching to Linux was a mix of XP and Vista. My XP machine would get bombed with malware at my University hourly being connected to their wifi, yes my fault sort of. I had absolutely no computer experience and knew nothing about them. I finally gave into Vista. While that stopped the malware bombing, Vista felt like a blob eating my ram. My new friend at uni introduced me to Linux. I'm Autistic, so the whole thing became a special interest.
@GarlicToast @Matty_r , definitely do. With the little money I have, I use this program on 3 machines of mine. The junk mail filter isn't perfect, but actually works compared to Hotmail's junk filter.
@Psyhackological
Work stations all run Ext4.
Main server: Ext4 on main partition, ZFS RAIDZ2 on the data.
Secondary server: BTRFS on main, BTRFS RAID1 on data.
If BTRFS could natively encrypt and had stable RAID6, I'd be using it probably on everything.
