  • Although I mostly agree with you, this is not true:

    The "worst" they do is stop you from using windows update

    The worst they do is practically force you to buy a windows license with most laptops and even some pre-built tower PCs.

    Yes there are some vendors/manufacturers who don't force you or ask, if you want an Ubuntu/Mint/Pop_!OS or smth. but most just don't give a shit.

  • and cannot be used to make bombs

    That is not true. Scientist even argue if LFTRs are a powerful way to create Uranium233.

    LFTRs create no nuclear waste

    Also not correct. Where did you get your facts from?

  • Uh, I mean kinda...

    Excel implements two Microsoft file format standards:

    • ECMA-376
    • ISO 29500

    Those are not the same and even incompatible in parts. It is correct, that Microsoft tries to use ISO 29500 more, but most files (2007) still are ECMA-376.

    But yes, they kinda would have to change their shitty, ISO-incompatible ISO "standard" to fix this issue this way.

    Or use the formula field, idk. 😅

  • Excel is inherently flawed in its design.

    The thing is, that excel already has half the means of what would be necessary to really fix this bug. That is a field for each cell where the original text can stay.

    An excel sheet is just a bunch of XML files zipped in a specific structure. You can unpack a file and look for yourself.
    Each worksheet is it's own file and each cell is subdivided into the value and the formula, that generated this value (or nothing, if there is no formula).
    Excel could easily fix this issue by adding another possible cell attribute like "original" or "plain" that, when set, allows you to roll back any conversion.

    But no, they go a half assed way as always and screw up even more.

  • Okay, but it is a really good time, to protest this topic.

    Imagine the protestors showing up when they visit a chocolate factory. Everyone would be wondering, why they chose the chocolate factory of all places to protest slavery.

    Better would be protests everywhere they go.

  • Yeah that's right! Games like stardew valley, factorio, Terraria, Binding of Isaac, Hades and others could really learn from those brave heroes and finally remove the Battle pass and all the other payed content!

    Edit: /s... Duh!

  • Counteropinion:

    The Ads are too many, disturb the experience a lot and the creators earn more through other means like patreon or merchandise.

    And you acting like 2 unskippable 30 second ads before a 2 minute video is just "a few seconds" shows that you don't watch YouTube a lot.
