Stuff Michael Meeks is doing

This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit
Collabora
Productivity a subsidiary of Collabora focusing on LibreOffice support and
services for whom I work.
Also if you have the time to read this sort of stuff you could enlighten
yourself by going to Unraveling Wittgenstein's net or if
you are feeling objectionable perhaps here.
Failing that, there are all manner of interesting things to read on
the LibreOffice Planet news
feed.

Mail, built TTT using ffmpeg command-line tools like:
ffmpeg -i "2019-04-10 18-38-22.flv" -ss 0.00 -t 337.79 -c copy a.flv
resulting in a much smaller output; hey ho.

Appalled by the usability of Apple Enterprise App development:
requiring a different Apple id and thus making switching accounts (via
needing two factor authentication) a matter of major upheaval on one
of your devices each time the account switches; shame.
-
Disappointed to see the growing intolerance of people
who hold different opinions: fundamentally sounds like the very definition of
bigotry. There is a twisted irony in some modern mis-usage of the word
bigot to mean: "person whose views I don't like, and thus whom I can't tolerate".
An interesting trend; some suggest
that postmodern liberals cannot comprehend the idea that one could simultaneously
reject a belief and accept the person who holds it. Perhaps that is a consequence
of the polarized ideological echo-chambers people we are all drawn to, and can easily
inhabit these days. Does diversity of viewpoint necessarily imply acrimonious
conflict: hopefully not - no matter how politically 'useful' such conflicts are
presumed to be to whomever stoke them.

Sync with Muhammet, out for dinner with J. in the evening - lovely.

themselves, in context, in the battle for ideas, and I love fixes /
improvements / corrections by private mail.
In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my
own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of Collabora, SUSE,
Novell, The Document Foundation, Spaghetti Hurlers (International),
or anyone else.
It's also important to realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences
or fun.
